Michael Lucas Uncensored: Gay-for-Pay
When shooting one of my latest porn flicks in the Czech Republic, it was easy to see why gay men today are so obsessed with straight men.“Straight From Prague,” (set to be released this fall) is exactly as it sounds: a movie about hot straight Czech boys getting fucked up the ass. I have to admit, there was something utterly satisfying (and somewhat perverse) about making these beautiful blond boys, who would otherwise be chasing pussy, spread’em for the cameras. I mean come on! this is the stuff fantasies are made of.
My favorite moment was during one of my lunch breaks. I suddenly noticed this hunk of a guy (we’re talking Abercrombie material) squatting on what appeared to be a bright 10-inch pink dildo! I put down my plate, turned on the cameras, and started interviewing him (all the while the guy continued to ride his pink stick).
“What are you doing?” I asked.
“I’m stretching,” he answered, as if he were about to go for a jog.
Unbelievable! This man (who by the way had a girlfriend by the name of Clara) was doing his ass-yoga right there on the floor, giving a whole new meaning to the words “Downward Dog”.
Gay-for-pay can be hot when done right. In fact, some of the biggest names in gay porn are straight: Jeff Stryker, Ryan Idol, Ken Ryker, Lukas Ridgeston. But they knew how to sell it, they knew how to make it look hot (or maybe their directors and editors did?)
Today, with the introduction of Viagra and other drugs, we’re getting a whole new generation of gay-for-pay actors who are in it for the money, and look it. You watch scene after scene, all featuring hot, muscular guys who simply put, aren’t having fun. They look like their mind is somewhere else, their body just going through the motions. When they eat ass, their faces wrinkle as though they’re being forced to finish up their brussels sprouts.
People who buy porn are paying for a fantasy. They jerk off to these demi-gods thinking (hoping?) they’re in it not just for the money.
That’s why when asked whether they’re gay or straight, the Mark Daltons of the world, avoid answering, saying they’re “simply sexual.” Sexual my ass. These guys know that if they admit to being straight, they’ll lose a big chunk of their fan base and money. And what does that mean anyway? “Sexual?” we’re all sexual (well, except Whoopi Goldberg).
The way I look at it is, you’re gay not because you have sex with men (although that is a prerequisite). You’re gay because you maintain a certain lifestyle; you socialize with other gay men, you perhaps want a boyfriend, you’re interested in gay culture, in short, you chase dick not vagina.
All these other so called “sexual” guys, are as straight as they come. Still, doesn’t hurt to see them get fucked by a twink, does it?Love,
Michael

That's too true. They shouldn't try and straddle the fence like that. How can they have sex with men and still be able to live normal, straight lives when they also become gay porn celebrites? What kind of girl would want to be associated with them? Just a thought. I love your blog, by the way. It's so smart and fresh. I've had enough of the other pretentious celebrity-wannabe's on the web. You're the real deal. This is definitely going to my bookmarks. :)
Ciao bella,
Logan

wow, that's one of the hottest videos I've seen lately, I'm looking forward to the movie...

It's something about straight men having sex with other men (even for money) that is just so much more erotic than two gay men going at it. I don't know why, maybe it has something to do with masculinity or something but its just hotter.
I just wish it was more accepted in mainstream though, straight actors playing gay. Just think of the amount of great gay films that go unmade because of the stigma attached to playing gay...even for the few out gay actors there are.

I think having straight guys in gay porn also gives some gay men false hope that if they give enough attention/beer/money to any straight guy he will play along. These are the guys that need to be reminded that porn is fantasy!

Just a couple of remarks about both the entry and the clip.
I think it's confusing and unfair to put in the same category on the one hand Jeff Stryker, Ryan Idol, Ken Ryker (his case is complicated) and Rex Chandler (remember him ?) and on the other hand Lukas Ridgeston, and the other Czech and Slovakian models (including this one who often goes by the name of Mack Thomas or Todd Miller. The difference is that Stryker and al. made a career out of claiming they were straight and NOT DOING certain things on camera. Lukas Ridgeston, whatever you say about his playing around with the "I'm sexual" routine, did everything (is still doing it and shooting it too) and was always great and hot doing it. Todd/Mack may think himself straight and have a girlfriend but he has been around for at least 2 years, mostly as a bottom. So he's not a newbie. He may even have performed in more scenes than you. So what does that say about him ? He's certainly not my favorite Czech model, but according to who's directing, he can be pretty good and involved, and certainly neither homophobic nor disgusted. That must be one of the reasons why he's still doing it.
The second thing I wanted to say is that I find the clip pretty unpleasant (also I can't hear your questions, so the whole thing is pretty pointless). It reminds me of the whole Richie Fine affair. I have a lot of respect and admiration for your work, and the last 2 movies I've seen "Lost" and "Manhattan Heat" are just amazing. But this is really not right, particularly since you don't bottom on camera. Sorry to say that, and I'm still looking forward to your "Liaisons".

Don't even get me started on how many Gay For Pay actors in movies have slipped into my hotel room after the cameras were off. Don't worry boys ... I never kiss and tell.

You mentioned Mack Thomas. Well, this was a special case I think because when I first saw him in "Muscle Inn", I didn't know who he was but I with all possible certainty recogized he was straight and absolutely not into the action. And I found it hot to see him "raped" this way. BUT: the second movie I saw with him was "Body Shop" and there his behaviour, though still definitely "straight" (attitude) changed slightly because he seemed to be more into his on screen partner. And THAT was even more HOT... Straight men who discover gay pleasures: that's the ultimate formula, I think. Kind of adolescence remembrance?

Hey... 25yr.old latino here..and as you can tell from my email address I am a big fan of Max Grand. I think he is totally hot, I might be biased as a latino myself, but still the man is beautiful. I was just wondering, is he still making films? and does he have a personal website? I want to know more about this latino papi. Thanks.
