The APRIL CALENDAR IS POSTED and FULL of LIVE SHOWS and CAM and STUFF lol !!!…including the LIVE CAM DUO with VANCE WINTER…PLUS – LIVE CAM AND CHAT TOMORROW NIGHT (THURSDAY)!!! (Don’t forget the Prize Awards randomly picked from April renews and new memberships, by April 10th !!!) Just to wrap up the GAYVN Awards topic…I am posting the rest of the pictures I have received so far… Alec Mapa, one of the hosts, was hillarious! As was the always amazing Margaret Cho. Janice Dickinson, while very nice to me and my friends, was a little bitchy to some other guys – lol. But whatever, she can be as bitchy as she wants I’d still love her. I got a shot of myself with her and Bruce Vilanch as well. You will also notice Dink Flamingo (Pink Tie) and I outside his limo, he is holding his well-deserved award from the evening. Walking in on the red carpet I ran into friend and co-star Brent Corrigan who was looking very cute in his boomer jacket. Once inside I was kickin it with Afton Nill’s and some of the Xtreme Boys as well as Dak Ramsey, Tommy D, Lex Sabre, Cameron Marshall, and Phillip Ashton. When the show began, my two nominations were some of the very first to be announced. Unfortunately, I didn’t win – but thats okay, I wasn’t even expecting the nominations so I was super stoked anyway. The event itself was a little boring, to be honest lol – they could have dressed the theater up just a little bit more, I thought. Still fun nonetheless. It seemed that Raging Stallion cleaned up at the awards, winning nearly all the major categories. Congrats to them – and also to friend Ralph Woods for his Best Actor in a Foreign Film Award in ‘French Kiss’. Finally, in support of my friend Brent Corrigan, and to provide this forum for fairness… “In what was an otherwise wonderful evening, there was some negativity directed at me from Michael Lucas. While unprovoked, his attempts to thwart a special evening for me were unsuccessful. Without warrant or invite, ML forced himself onto the stage and to the mic during a transitional moment in the show’s proceedings. Bitterly and maliciously, he made this statement: “Shame on the judges who nominated and awarded Corrigan. On a night we honor ASACP there should be no forgiveness for the company’s and individuals who put the industry in danger by supporting this . . .” I can’t recall exactly which derogatory terms he used, but it was harsh and aimed to hurt. The boos and applause drown it out on the live feed. More boos were heard than clapping though I’ve been called many things over the years. I learned to accept early on that this comes with the territory of living in the public eye. Living my life openly and honestly as a public figure also means people have and always will target me. Saturday evening at the GayVN Awards, Michael Lucas used me as a personal pawn in his game of publicity foul play. He has a running track record of these theatrics and stunts… …Later in the evening after the show, at the after party, Michael Lucas put himself between my boyfriend and I and the exit of the club. We were on our way home. He forced his body into Paul (my boyfriend of almost one year) and stepped on his toes and shoes. Michael immediately was hostile and a shouting match began. Paul requested the aid of two security officials at the venue. A warning was issued to Michael Lucas. The club was loud, there were many people around but words could not easily be heard over the noise unless you were within inches of the incident like I was…. This was done to humiliate me and those who care and look after me. I have people in my life who care about me and who stand by me; when necessary they defend me. I am as proud of them as they are of me. Michael Lucas could not stand to walk away from the awards with just one accolade. He had to pull tricks and play the bitter card to make it all about him. But at what cost? Anything Michael Lucas has to recite says more about him than me. If he wants to go on with his fabrications of hate and theatrics, I will have no part in it. He, or anyone else, can only take from me what I allow them to have. In the last few years I have been called things that would make most people give up on themselves. I have apologized and made arrangements in the past to do what I could to set right what was so very wrong about my underage work. Later this week, I intend to republish and reiterate the circumstances surrounding my premature entrance into the adult industry. With so much attention once again called to this issue, it is my belief that once and for all I might be able to close the book on that part of my life. I do have thoughts and strong convictions about the legal age of models working within the adult industry and I look forward to sharing. Thank you to all of you who have supported my work and found it within your hearts to forgive the mistakes I made as a boy.” – Brent Corrigan www.BrentCorriganInc.com
