Do You Remember This Handsome, Sexy, Male Porn Star?

Ryan Idol. Anyone ever meet him or have anything to do with him?

Yes, of course I remember him. But he's serving time in prison for attempted murder.

Unfortunately, his personality doesn't match his looks.

In his prime.

Fap away!

Hot Buns!

OP, judging from r5's clip, I don't think Ryan Idol had problems mounting anyone.

[quote]I don't think Ryan Idol had problems mounting anyone.

Actually, the first time I had ever heard that they used a stunt dick in pron was about him. Apparently, when he first started, he wouldn't (or couldn't) perform anal, so they brought someone else in for the closeups.

Whether it's true or another Matt Ramsey, who can say.

When people laugh at the gay4pay claim, they forget how many porn stsrs leave gay porn and go on to live straight lives, marry women, have kids, etc.

Some may be bi in their private lives but most others only had sex with men for money, never off camera.

Granted, most never tried to bash their girlfriend's head in with a ceramic toilet like Ryan Idol but no one claimed porn stars are stable.

I met him once, when he was doing the play "Making Porn." This was at the Diversionary Theater in San Diego maybe 15 to 18 years ago. After the play, he would appear in the lobby and sell autographed merchanise featuring him. I talked with him for maybe 15 minutes. He seemed like a nice guy. He was friendly. He was from Massachussetts I think. He seemed pretty normal to me then. Maybe he just liked talking with me. Of course he was spectacular to see in person. Handsome and a great body. Quite a specimen of manhood. The late porn performer and director Blue Blake was also in the cast of that play - which had at least 3 nude men (Ryan, Blue and another guy). Ryan's real name is Marc Anthony Donais, I think.

R10, Yes, that's his real name. And for those of you like vintage/classic porn, this collection has a lot of good scenes.

R10 I also met him, albeit briefly, when he was signing autographs after his appearance in "Making Porn" in San Francisco. I agree - he was very friendly, a bit self-deprecating, seemed like a guy who was on the right track to reshaping his career.

Pretty sad how it all turned out for him.

It's called bisexual, Dear, and more then one "gfp" porn performer has had violent run ins with their women and the law. Straight guys don't fuck men for a few hundred bucks a pop and have it on film forever.

Isn't he in jail because he tried to kill someone with a TOILET? LOL

i've posted this before. I was in a scene with Ryan Idol when he was in his prime. Late 1990 to be exact. It's a JO scene with Ryan, me and another guy. We're only in it for the 'plot' and we were both fully clothed and shot from the back. But I had lines lol. "Ay-ay sir! Full speed ahead, sir!" The vid was Idol Worship.

Ryan was nice and friendly. Any other questions just ask.

Ryan Idol had a girlfriend but one day she found him in bed with another man and she terminated the relationship.

He was very angry and upset, went to see her, became violent - and subsequently ended up in prison.

Morale of the story - if you're bi and have a girlfriend (especially an open minded one), let her know.

It's too bad he ended up in prison.

A real cutie with a very shapely body.

[quote] But I had lines lol. "Ay-ay sir! Full speed ahead, sir!"

Is that how you got your SAG card?

I loved how many of his movies' titles had puns on the use of "Idol" in them - "Idol Eyes" (idolize), "Idol Worship", "Idol Thoughts", "Idol Hands Are The Devil's Workshop"

He was one of the most beautiful men ever on screen. He was a bland, terrible performer however - one of those who looked perfect (that ASS and that face) but did not translate to film work. He should have bottomed - everyone was dying to see that and he never was convincing as that Jeff Stryker, verbal, alpha top man. As a top, he was stale; as a bottom he might have been magic. We will never know now. In his prime he was at the top of the porn food chain = back when you could be a genuine "star" (Jeff Stryker, Joey Stefano, Rex Chandler, Ken Ryker, Kevin Williams, etc.). Those days have long passed. Being both a top and an ass man - he was very, very attractive.

Maybe he would have performed better in straight porn.

He was a huge pain to work with. But a lot of people put up with it because his stuff sold well. If he wasn't so self destructive, he could've cashed in big time and had a comfortable life. But he was into booze, drugs and steroids. And those started making his looks deteriorate. By the time he did Idol in the Sky he had bitch tits (he got those fixed via surgery though) and was looking somewhat older.

He got into a fist fight during intermission of one of the performances of Making Porn and ended up getting arrested. Apparently he got pissed one of his co-stars got more of a response from the audience.

He would've never made it in straight porn. Too much ego and too difficult.

These porn 'star' are all obviously have a borderline personality disorder or they're full blown psychopaths. As r13 mentioned about their "bi" status, I would also add any man who would show himself to the world having sex with ANYONE for a few hundred or a few thousand dollars has some deep seated emotional and/or mental problems.

I gave him $600 when he fell out of the window and was really hurting. He sent me a really sincere and quite intelligent note promising a "good time" when he was better but I never collected.

I bought "Idol in the Sky" for $49 or whatever insane price we used to have to pay for VHS porn. It was the only real "name brand" porn I bought. The rest was just like 9.99 mixed up scenes from a little convenience store.

Anyway, yeah I loved him ... he was the only porn star whose name I even knew.

I tried to get tickets for "Making Porn" and the pickup point was my grocery store ... this was 1998? Anyway, people were so fucking uptight - the woman wouldn't give me the tickets unless she saw ID ! I was like - wtf do you want from me? To be 21? I was 17 or 18 I think. I was not going to bring my mother in there to pick them up. And, I had to have the store manager come over and give me the tickets.... so fucking embarrassing.

Then, Ryan Idol apparently went crazy during one of the shows so they had to replace him & by the time the show came here, he wasn't in it anymore. And no refunds.

He only did a very few films, and the only good scenes he ever did were where he was having his body worshipped (by himself in front of a mirror in "Idol Eyes," and by a group two porn stars --one was JT Sloan) in "Idol Country." He really got off on being worshipped, and it was really sexy to see. But he was a bland and uninteresting top, I will agree with that.

He was exceptionally handsome and had a GREAT body. That ass! But he lost both his body and (especially) his looks due to booze and aging and not keeping up as much with the gym.

I was always impressed that he had any money at all--he only did about seven films. He must have really commanded top fees as an escort back in the day.

I've heard from someone who used to work in the business that when he started out he tried to feign 100% straightness and refused to do anything other than get sucked. Any fucking attributed to him was done by a stunt dick (more often than not by David Ashfield who did a lot of stunt dick work back in the day). But eventually Idol decided or someone persuaded him to get more involved and he stopped with the "I'm 100% straight" routine.

Before he beat her his "girlfriend" came home to find him fucking their landlord (a man) and created a mighty scene. None, not one, zero, zilch, nada of these G4P pornstars are 100% straight. The vast majority of them aren't even bi. They're just fucked up homos who have to maintain this illusion of straightness for their own self respect. They're all fucked up in the head.

Lucky landlord... and I assume he never collected ANY rent.

Saw him on Broadway in the revival of "The Ritz". He stood around in a towel and had a few lines. And I saw him Off-Broadway in "Making Porn" down in the village. I had an aisle seat and there's a scene where he came off stage and stood in the aisle nude and he delivered some lines standing next to me with flaccid manhood six inches from my face. I did not complain.

Stunt dick! Ha ha ha!

Many who did hire him as an escort claimed that he did indeed bottom for them (if the price was right) and did little else besides getting sucked. I don't think that he was exactly enthusiastic doing anything sexually, but did love the green stuff and would do what he had to. David Forrest used to manage him and was constantly blabbing about how the greatest star ever was going to bottom soon on film (He was supposedly waiting for a star of his same "caliber" to do the honors). That time never came (despite the Ken Rykers and Rex Chandlers who would have been perfectly capable), and his looks vanished overnight. He literally lost his beauty faster than just about any big time porn star ever. This is in keeping with so many Greek men - gorgeous when young, but age badly.

A friend and I once went to Circus Books in WeHo because we'd heard he was there doing a signing and wanted to get a look -- and it was pretty damn funny. Him at a table like a celeb at Barnes and Nobel while 100 older gay men lined up around the store, holding dildos, x rated tapes, etc. It pretty much perfectly captured the early '90s in L.A.

Gay pron has used the "he's going to actually fuck or be fucked soon" routine with lots of their new stars over the years. Mainly because they know so many who are fans of gay pron are as gullible as can be and will believe anything. Just like the old lies about cock size. Jeff Stryker's foot long cock that is actually much closer to 8" at best.

Those days are now long gone since the number of big gay porn studios is now down to 1 or 2, and they won't be around long.

David Ashfield was far sexier than Ryan Idol, IMO. I would have preferred to just watch him in a scene anyway.

David Ashfield and Rod Garetto IMO had the 2 most beautiful penii that ever appended from a human body.

On Broadway in The Ritz

[quote]It's called bisexual, Dear

Did you miss the second paragraph in your rush to post that clever reply? Let me repeat it for you:

[quote]Some may be bi in their private lives but most others only had sex with men for money, never off camera.

Men who only willingly have sex with women, and only fuck men for survival (prison, prostituton), are not bisexual. They're victims.

If he just got a haircut and shaved the mustache, he'd be hot again there. Or maybe for a different demographic than he served when he was 25... but I like both.

He was handsome as hell. Ken Ryker was always my favorite. He was like a fucking god. But Ryan certainly was hot. Hal Rockland was off the fucking chart too.

Idol and Ricky Nelson were twins.

Are there reports from the Big House on how she is doing today?

I never realized how naturally hairy he is until that pic at R36. To me, he would've been hotter if he had done his porn work with all the fuzz. He's beautiful at R40, but he looks like a plastic Ken doll. Plus I always found his thong tan completely ridiculous and off-putting.

My favorite Ryan Idol scene is the one from Score 10 where he fucks Dcota while wearing a football uniform. That video also has the scene between the amazingly-cocked Blade Thompson and Chad Knight.

Ryan's scene with Tom Katt (Idol Thoughts, I think) was really hyped at the time because it was to be Ryan's first time sucking a cock on film. I wasn't into Tom (nelly roid queen), so the scene fizzled for me. Looking back, I really hate that shaved-all-over, tan-lined, big-haired, 90s look.

[quote] If he just got a haircut and shaved the mustache, he'd be hot again there.

He's have to lose quite a bit of weight and work out more, too. Sorry.

The scene in "Idol In The Sky" where he pounds Bo Summers on top of the Jeep is scorching hot.

Except, r45, they filmed that scene at dusk and everything in the scene is obscured by the long shadows.

[quote]This is in keeping with so many Greek men - gorgeous when young, but age badly.

Who said he was Greek?

[quote]Ryan's scene with Tom Katt (Idol Thoughts, I think) was really hyped at the time because it was to be Ryan's first time sucking a cock on film. I wasn't into Tom (nelly roid queen),

Queen? QUEEN? I'm as straight as they come, baby!

In his porn career he was managed by David Forest (from Meet the Stars - his gay porn star escort business). Now there's some sordid history.

Lord have mercy, David Forest. What a character he was at ATKOL. Bless his soul. He tried to do right by all his whores.

[quote]David Ashfield and Rod Garetto IMO had the 2 most beautiful penii that ever appended from a human body.

R35, I could just kiss you! Rod was one of my long-time favorite porn performers. I was just reading this thread early this morning, after having a sexy fantasy about him last night.

Ryan Idol in the prime of his youth. Beautiful........

He was also connected with Marc (forgot his last name but it starts with an S), the gay porn producer who was so tight with Michael Jackson.

Well, back when his real name was revealed - he was claimed to be born of at least 50% Greek heritage. And that was a sexy thing. Lord, was he a gorgeous man too. The "David Forrest - he will bottom soon for the right top" just became old after years and years. David said the same about Marco Rossi who took champagne bottles up his ass on stage, but wouldn't let a little cock get anywhere near it. And Marco had a 4" penis - despite being gorgeous he was a pathetic top. It was a different time and place. Ryan Idol bottomed for many, many men - just for big bucks behind closed doors as an escort. Outside of Joey Stefano and Kevin Williams, bottoms were not seen as big money stars then - and that was back when you could actually make big money in porn...

His submarine solo that a fellow poster cameos in.

IIRC he was the one who once said in a conversation that if he had played his cards right he could have had Tom Cruise's career (insinuating that both he and Tom had the same circle of "friends").

[quote] Many who did hire him as an escort claimed that he did indeed bottom for them (if the price was right) and did little else besides getting sucked. I don't think that he was exactly enthusiastic doing anything sexually, but did love the green stuff and would do what he had to.

I believe it. The girlfriend walked in on him with a client. He was cute but completely disinterested in gay sex. He escorted to pay the bills but was not bisexual.

Gurlllllllllll PLEASEEEEEEEEZ!!!

She was 1000% HOMOSEXUAL

[quote]Men who only willingly have sex with women, and only fuck men for survival (prison, prostituton), are not bisexual. They're victims.

*single tear*

I saw him in MAKING PORN in...98? In Seattle.

The audience consisted of 35 year old me, 2 confused women and about 60 or so men averaging around the age of 55 and 250 lbs or so.

I overheard two of the fat old queens sniff at intermission, "He's gotten a bit fat" referring to Ryan Idol. I think this was after his "ooops, I fell out the window accident" and he was in pretty good shape but had a tiny bit of cushion in his belly (which I thought was hot). I just looked at the fat old queens being cunty and thought, "I bet they're on Data Lounge".

They probably still are....I'll go check the Theatre Gossip threads. They're probably over there yapping about "Follies" or "Bedknobs & Broomsticks"....

I noticied him in the small audience for Making Porn starring Johnny Hansen. I think he wanted to talk to me during intermission ( I was the only who recognized him and I was carrying a bottle of wine that I bought to cash travelsers check the theater wouldn't take) but I was shy so I avoided him.

Why r61 avoided Miss Idol: She knew that Miss Idol wanted some money

R51 Rod Garetto was so damned hot he even made the unibrow look sexy. LOL

This is a shot of Ryan after he was sent to prison. This was years ago. I don't even want to think about what he looks like now. I'm betting he's covered in tats now.

How many chins is that?

[quote]Ryan's scene with Tom Katt (Idol Thoughts, I think) was really hyped at the time because it was to be Ryan's first time sucking a cock on film.

r43, of all the 90s gay porn stars to go the straight/married to a woman route Katt surprised me the most.

Tom Katt was a surprise in almost every way. At first glance he looked butch do to his massive muscles and Italian looks. In those days, due to my age (not legal and could not go into sex/porn shops) I could only access porn over the internet and that was really just in picture form usually. I was somewhat surprised to realize after some internet surfing that he was a bottom (just pics of him getting porked and never topping). Years later when I saw him in action and heard him talk - he was so obviously a fem bottom that it made perfect sense. When stories surfaced years ago that he married a woman and became some sort of minister, I was dumbfounded. To each his own as they say..

I don't buy Tom Katt (David Papaleo) as a straight man. Too queeny and the mountain of evidence in gay porn. Yes, he can choose to marry a woman, as many gay men do. But it don't mean a goddamn thing.

The guy on the right in R65 is R60, who is now 55 and 250 pounds, and posting on Datalounge.

I don't think Tom Katt has ever professed to be straight. In fact I've read comments from him since he got out of porn and married a woman and moved to Florida where he basically says he's a homo married to a woman.

Most fish over 35 of average or below average looks are desperate and will marry anyone who volunteers.

Ryan Idol thought he could have had Tom Cruise's career? LOL LOL LOL oh my sides!!!!!

It wouldn't matter if Cecil B. DeMille had been Ryan Idol's best friend. The career he had was the most he could have ever hoped for.

It was very difficult finding a guy he wanted to fuck on screen and he demanded that they take an AIDS test first even though it was going to be a scene with a condom. He pushed poor Gino Colbert, one of the most amiable guys in porn, to the limit trying to cater to all of his demands. I was never a fan of David Forest, but he had to have a lot of patience to deal with Ryan (and some of the others as well).

R73 - interesting info, thank you. I knew that he was a diva but never realized just how difficult he could be. I heard that his scene with the late, great Joey Stefano was a stunt dick - so that makes sense now for a number of reasons. I only cared for two of his scenes and that was really due having the hots for the bottom that he was fucking. He should have bottomed for Ken Ryker (I remember him coyly flirting with the idea); I bet that he would have made a fortune back when you really could demand huge fees in porn.

R69 The guy on the right in R65 is DL's favorite Renaissance gay--Seth Rudetsky!

The OP pic and R17 don't look like him. If that was him, I liked him better like that.

I saw him at a gay bar in the 90s in Chicago.

R76 That was him before he was in porn in his Playgirl layout.

Thanks for posting that, R55! I haven't seen it in YEARS. The guy next to me was the set designer and he and I built that submarine set over the course of two days with no sleep. Mostly from foam core board and gels that were backlit. It's pretty impressive seeing it now, considering the low budget. It was built/shot in the garage of a condo somewhere near Santa Monica Airport.

The original plan was to use rented mannequins instead of real people, probably with voice-over dubbed in later, but someone got the idea to use me and the other guy to make it appear more real. It was shot around 10pm of the second day and I was so exhausted from being up for two days. The shoot wrapped, and Ryan needed a ride back to West Hollywood. I was the only one going that way, so what do you think I did? Next thing you know, we're heading up the Santa Monica Freeway. I must have said I was very hungry. He had some left-over chicken from his dinner and he offered me some. There was no fork so he fed me with his fingers. That endeared me to him forever.

signed, R15

When he was in his absolute prime, he rubbed his junk in my face while dancing at the Nob Hill in San Francisco. It was great junk. Made for a memorable moment.

That penis parting Joey Stefano's bunghole at the bungalow belonged to David Ashfield.

Anyone remembers Aaron Colt? He was pretty hit with stubble.

R76 Those pics are indeed of Ryan Idol back when he was only about 24 and posing for Playgirl magazine. His boyish good looks and streamlined body caught everyone's attention.

Another photo of Ryan during his young, Playgirl shoot.

Score X is the best movie ever

Anyone know when he can get out with good behavior?

I saw him in Trunks in West Hollywood many years ago. Very early 2000s, maybe when he was doing Making Porn? Was there ever a WeHo production? Anyway he was hanging out playing pool. Very laid back and affable though I didn't speak to him. Didn't look like he was with anyone in particular. Being it was Trunks, he was probably looking for an older hookup with $$.

There have been reports from enough guys who topped him to say that you are likely correct R87. He charged big bucks because he could - but you only were allowed to either suck him off or fuck him in the ass. No kissing from what I was told. And he had no interest in topping anyone anally. Kurt Stefano the famous porn bottom (who came along years later) was much the same, except that unlike Ryan - he 95% bottomed on screen. He also ended up married to some older woman when he left the business. He claimed that getting fucked was a lot easier than trying to hard to fuck another guy. Granted, his dick was smaller, but at least he basically did on screen what he did when he escorted. Both men did what they did for $$$. Which can be a hot concept despite their lousy performances on screen. And both men were jaw dropping in their prime - to me at least.

R85, you mean Score 10. 🙂

The only movie in which I ver found him hot was "The Road Home", where he played a priest listening to a confession and proceeded to take out his cock from underneath his cassock and jack off.

R90 It could only happen in a porn movie!

R90 Father Ryan wanking........

R69 I'm 53 and 230!!!!!

R69 AAAAAAAND, I'm NOT Seth Rudetsky!!!!

We were at one time one of the young starlets in David Forest's 'agency' and we also got extra income from Miss F by processing all the agency's credit card transactias through our merchant account (we took 30%, which she hated...). She often reminded us that we were not quite as beautiful as her other starlets - and this coming from someone who looked like she did!!! Miss Idol was not employed there at the time but Miss Paris was. We eventually came to a parting of the ways, she was a really nasty queen. She would be very nice and then stick the knife in with little remarks like above.

[quote]The only movie in which I ver found him hot was "The Road Home", where he played a priest listening to a confession and proceeded to take out his cock from underneath his cassock and jack off.

r90, I didn't know that was him, that was a really hot little snippet. I really like that whole movie, the scene with the 3 farmhands is one I frequently come back to.

R67, Actually Tom Katt did top in at least one scene: he and Billy Herrington flip-flopped in the final scene in 'Conquered'.

With Chuck Hunter in 'Idol Thoughts'.

Tom Chase was hotter when he was more Lou Costello instead of Lou Forrigno .

Always the hottest Idol scene for me.... (xxx NSFW)

Didn't Donais pistol whip someone to get money to have his moobs reduced?

I have a friend who used to procure for David Geffen. He told me Geffen said that when Ryan Idol first got to town, he was hands down the hottest guy he'd seen/had sex with before or since (this was 1994 he told me this)

Geffen must have topped "Ryan" then. I don't think that he was very capable of doing much else sexually and making it an enjoyable experience.

Miss Idol was 10 times hotter than Tammy Cruise, so perhaps her culo did not please Geffen as well as Tammy's did. That would be the reason she never became a Hollywood 'star'.

In "Link 2 Link" Tom Katt fucked the bejesus out of several guys. There's one scene where he lines 3 guys up and pile drives them doggy all in a row.

An alluring ass from the Ryan Idol movie, The Road Home.

Could you imagine having all those fat nasty guys pawing at you? I hope he charged a bundle. No wonder he tried to kill someone with a toilet. It must be PTSD.

R108 He was SO handsome back in the day.

Here is Tom Katt, looking like a hairless albino Gorilla, tapping some young tail in a shower. He makes me feel uncomfortable just looking at how bloated and misshapen his body is in this video. You have to be sick in the head to want to look like that.

R110 He's got a nice, chunky cock and ass so that's 2 biggies in his favor.

Tom Katt's (real name all over the web) best performances were when he was grabbing his ankles. He took some big cocks up that huge ass back in the day..

Whatever happened to Anthony Gallo that fat cocked Brazilian stud? His weight fluctuated a lot but that cock was always a juicy jawbreaker.

I read somewhere a few years back that Gallo had returned to his home country (seems like it might have been Brazil) and was working as a teacher.

So when is Ryan/Marc getting out?

2022 will be his latest release date.

Stunningly beautiful man.

r117 - you do realize that that is "Ryan Bertroche" and not Ryan Idol, don't you.

Or are you just randomly posting guys you think are hot?

R118 It's listed under Ryan Idol and it does look like him.

Magnificent hunk of man.

[quote] I read somewhere a few years back that Gallo had returned to his home country (seems like it might have been Brazil) and was working as a teacher.

ESL

I don't think I ever saw Gallo fully hard.

[quote][R118] It's listed under Ryan Idol and it does look like him.

And yet, it is not him.

The MsAllegro types still don't understand the vagaries and inaccuracies of gay porn.

Would Ryan Idol fuck Elijah Woods?

Very nice ass.

Serious underbite

R123 Would Ryan Idol fuck Elijah Woods?

If he's in prison, yes.

Speaking of Elijah......

I met Ryan Idol about 17 years ago. He was even hotter in person. It was at a gay pride festival. He kept all his clothes on. But damn, he was sexy personified.

Seemed nice enough too. I got a handshake and a bro-hug.

His smile was electric.

Shame he turned out to be such an asshole, wasting away in prison.

Sadly, Ryan has at best averagemeat (7 long on the tape measure).

If Ryan had sizemeat (8 plus on the tape measure) we would be interested.

I never heard about "Ryan" being an asshole of a person - just a very difficult, demanding diva on set. I have acquaintances who were semi well-known in the gay porn world when Ryan had his heyday (you will always run into some of these guys in WEHO and while they are all older than they used to be on film and all older than my social circle, most are easy to recognize and to me they are like a minor celebrity siting when you do bump into them in bars or out and about (no, I do not live in WEHO but just over the hill in Studio City and often go out to bars and restaurants down there). If you are inquisitive, many of these stars from the 80's and 90's are more than happy to tell you about the sets and other actors back in the day and honestly enjoy being recognized - unlike the current crop of Sean Cody straight G4P boys. By all accounts, Ryan sounded nice enough to his costars that he would actually agree to have sex with and generally nice to everyone else on set as long as you knew that he was the alpha star of the production. It sounds as if he made his director's life Hell though and was difficult to fluff and position for scenes. He loved the adoration of fans more than anything else and always professed to be straight despite doing submissive gay acts as an escort (anal bottom). And he did command top dollar with both his Johns and the porn companies for many years.

Sorry for all of those typos, I am multi-tasking. Ryan was far from being the most difficult on set during those days - I have heard stories of far, far worse. Namely, Joey Stefano, Matt Gunther and Christian Fox were mentioned the most often. Stefano (and equally huge star as Ryan) could either be a dream or nightmare depending on his drug usage or lack thereof that day. The other two were supposedly impossible no matter what they were filming or who they were filming with or for. Gunther was a legendary asshole to everyone and Fox a legendary pain in the ass whose demands were never satiated no matter what was done. Fox was supposedly married to a woman but was exclusively a bottom and impossible to work with.

Miss Cole Carpeneter was equally diva-ish but since she had sizemeat-plus (which Ryan does not have) and no drug problem she struck it rich as is now a zilloinaire!

[quote]I never heard about "Ryan" being an asshole of a person

Pssssssst no one said anything about being on set, I think trying to bash someone's head in with toilet tank cover qualifies him as being an asshole.

No

Yes, Ryan Idol was incredibly gorgeous. But unfortunately he knew it, and since his maturity level was/is so low his looks became his ultimate downfall.

Cole Carpenter's "official" back story was that he was a former Navy Seal. But you know how they all lie.

Cole Carpenter was in the movie version of "A Chorus Line" as one of the rejected dancers. Do you think he had to fuck Richard Attenborough for the part?

Dish, r132! Can you link to a recent photo?

Chance Caldwell was the absolute biggest asshole.

That's not sizemeat. That's, at most, 6".

This is sizemeat - vintage Lee Ryder with his 9 inch magic wand.

Yes, lee had a whopper. He was in a relationship with Rod Phillips for a while and Rod physically abused him (aka beat the hell out of him) on several occasions.

I would have liked to seen Chad Douglas fuck the shit out of Ryan

One of my favorite phots of Lee Ryder. And love that bright red T-shirt.

R142 I knew that Lee and Rod were involved in a relationship but I hadn't heard about the abuse which is really too bad.

Lee died from AIDS complications in 1991 but I'm not sure what happened to Rod Phillips.

Cole was perfection.

R106, That't Todd Gibbs in 'The Road Home'. Ryan Idol only has a jack-off scene in that movie. I have no idea why beautiful Todd Gibbs didn't have a greater porn career. There's a video out there of him as an escort. I didn't watch it. I have conflicted feeling about pron, but get very nervous and uncomfortable with escorting (even though I realize there isn't much difference).

Met Ryan in LA @ The Abbey in late 90's SOO nice, Im a small guy @ 5'7 and Ryan picked me up after I stopped to say "Hello" Ran into him a couple of other times and he was really charismatic

Matt Gunther was a CUNT. Knew him thru the whole Chi Chi La Rue group, knew bunch of those porn brat packers. Gunther ended up in a wheel chair living on the streets with AIDS. I'd see him everywhere and would buy him a meal just to hear him talk about the porn scene. Very sad how he ended up

Yeah, poor Matt Gunther. I never knew him - I think that he passed in the 90's. He must have been an unhappy person because the stories that I was told rate him the number one biggest asshole of the porn scene from the late 80's on to current. He had a decent sized dick and I suppose was fond of belittling everyone who did not measure up so-to-speak. Every performer that I have had the pleasure of meeting says that he was the worst of the worst. Nasty, catty, demeaning, unbearable. Christian Fox died in a car accident (?) I believe. Every performer who worked with him from what I was told vowed to never endure him again - despite his gorgeous body, face and ass. He was loathed also. I never met Ken Ryker, but he was said to have nearly backhanded Christian multiple times and I believe that he topped him in at least two scenes at some point. I was told that Christian would complain about how big your dick was and then seconds later - it was not nearly big enough to excite him. You were in his light and stealing the scene, and then you were not making the scene look real due to not getting in closer. How dare that you touched his perfect hair, but why didn't you pull it asshole? You shoved your dick too far inside him - but why can't you go deeper to try to get him off? He couldn't get hard for you - so he needed an hour break....only to never return to set. He sounded like a handful. LOL I never met any of these guys, by I did jerk off to Christian many a time as a 14 yoa on the newish WWW. It was such fun to hear of him years later. He was a beautiful man, whatever his temperament.

What other pron stars were known divas?

Lee Ryder came to visit us one day(when our husband was not home) when we lived in WeHo, for free of course.

Sadly, Lee was so out of it on drugs that performance was impossible!

R152 Dean Monroe is supposed to be an obnoxious diva, difficult to work with and controlling.

And then you ate his shit Erna. Or was that before you were into scat?

Paul Morgan made another porn star cry...I forget the name of the other guy...

How tragic that Mary r155's physical unattractiveness has made her an angry and biter woman unable to score sizemeat for free!

What's a "biter woman?" Sounds scary.

We knew one sleezy sister who was smoking poles for $50 per back in the 1980s who is now head of a big literary agency!

R157 you're into scat. There is really nothing you can say to win an argument after that

I actually think Ryan is more attractive as a daddy. With a mustache and chest hair. He was a little too wax perfect for me back that especially with the big hair.

I wonder what prison life is like for Ryan Idol? If I knew what prison he was in I'd be tempted to sit down, write him a letter, wish him well, and send it off. Anybody know what prison he is in?

When she gets out will there be a book/movie/TV series deal?

R162 Don't forget "Dancing With the Stars!"

Ryan Idol beat his ex-girlfriend over the head with a TOILET TANK LID, people.

Not a "toilet." Not a "toilet tank." GET YOUR GOSSIP RIGHT.

Who has a disassembled toilet lying around for those random, fits of rage? If Ryan Idol's girlfriend's toilet isn't fastened down, she's in deep shit.

Idol took the porcelain lid off the toilet tank and beat her bloody while she was taking a bath:

Please run a photo of the 'girlfriend'....was it some 250 pound sow who was allowing Ryan to live there for free in return for engaging in occasional acts of LESBIANISM MOST FOUL!?

[quote]he married a woman and became some sort of minister, I was dumbfounded. To each his own as they say..

Obvious ex-gay/conversion bs. Is now minister. Is now connected to "chosen partner".

R151, Christian Fox actually died of an overdose/suicide. The scene with Ken Ryker was in 'Big River' (a favorite of mine). They also were both in 'The Matinee Idol', but I never saw that, so don't know if they had any scenes together.

How do we know the ex-girlfriend wasn't asking for it?

R159 Who? Spill the dirt!

This is where Ryan Idol lives at present - The Valley State Prison in California. He is being held in protective custody for those with sensitive needs.

He is cray cray crazy!

I say those of us in So. Calif. should charter a bus and go visit him in the pen!

He'll make you put some money on his commissary account before he sees you.

He's not hot anymore so who gives a shit.

^^ His cellmate maybe??

I thought he was hotter than ever with all that body hair.m

He was once a god and one the highest paid escorts (he bottomed alot)

those with "Special needs" = maricons!

sorry, "maricones"

Well maybe if he's been in protective custody all this time he's not covered in prison tats. Those PC guys are only let out 1 hour a day in an exercise area alone. From his Wikipedia page. His life from birth sounds rather sad and unfortunate.

[quote] Idol was raised in a series of foster homes as a child. He never knew his father, and had little contact with his mother while growing up.[2] After high school, Idol spent a brief period in the United States Navy, then worked as a construction worker. To generate income, he began stripping for women in nightclubs in New England.[2] He was approached to do a nude layout for Playgirl,[2] and in February 1989 appeared as the "Man of the Month" centerfold under his birth name Marc Anthony Donais.[1] This appearance launched his career in the adult film industry,[2] in which he achieved notoriety and success under the name Ryan Idol. At the height of his career, he claimed to earn $50,000 per film, and made tens of thousands of dollars more stripping at gay clubs around the United States.[2] He also engaged in a limited amount of prostitution.[2] He retired from adult films in 1996. On March 20, 1998, Idol was seriously injured after jumping through a window of his fourth-floor apartment in New York City in an attempted suicide. He considers the fall to be a "near-death experience".[3] Idol has stated that he doesn't recall jumping but that "the drugs and alcohol took over".[2][4] Moving into theater acting, in 1999, Idol starred in the play Making Porn.[5] Idol next played "Bill Tom" in the play Scent of Rain (subtitled Scent of Rain: A Love Story Really!), a play written by Mark Dunn,[1] for which he was lauded for "continu[ing] to establish himself as a capable actor".[6] Idol made his Broadway debut when he played the "Crisco Patron" in the Roundabout Theater Company's 2007 revival of Terrence McNally's The Ritz.[7] Regarding his sexuality, Idol stated, "I don't like to label myself.... I'd just like to say I'm a loving person. I can love a man and I can love a woman."[3] Court documents related to a lawsuit filed by HealthSouth over allegations of misuse of funds donated to Birmingham, Alabama, mayor Larry Langford's Computer Help for Kids charity mentioned Idol under his real name. The papers showed that $30,000 was paid to Idol, with $5,000 coming from the charity and $25,000 from the Council of Cooperating Governments. Charity director John Katopodis testified in a deposition that Idol was paid to repair computers and to set up computer giveaway programs in other areas.[8] Idol testified that, because of his 1998 fall, he was "not at [his] full faculties" and could not recall the details of his time with the organization.[9] A Sacramento Superior Court jury convicted Idol on September 20, 2011 of attempted murder for smashing his girlfriend over the head with a toilet tank lid. He was also convicted of battery, assault with a deadly weapon and "corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant".[10] Sentencing was scheduled for December 9, 2011;[11] however when he appeared, his attorney requested to withdraw from the case. The request was granted. Idol then appeared in court on January 13, 2012 requesting a retrial "citing ineffective assistance of counsel". He was sentenced to 12 years in state prison September 27, 2012.[12] He is housed at the Valley State Prison in Chowchilla, California, sensitive needs yard (protective custody).[13]

R180, That's really sad. From some of the posts upthread, he seems like he might have been a sweet guy (despite the violence).

He claimed in an interview once that he rarely escorted and quoted an insane amount of money he got for it when he did. Several thousand per session, I believe.

His claim of being paid up to 50 G's for a gay pron video is laughable. He might, just might, have gotten someone to pay him $5000, maybe for the first video he actually sucked a cock on camera, but no fucking way did he, or anybody else, ever get paid $50,000 to do a pron flick.

The sad thing about most people involved in the gay porn world, most especially the performers, is that they are inveterate liars.

All the accolades about his beauty in his prime on this thread. Yet I well remember during his actual heydays when DL was rife with posters yakking about his pronounced gynecomastia aka saggy titties situatia. My how times and posters have changed.

The Hershey Highway is the road to misery!

There is no way that he ever earned $50,000 a scene, but yes - in his heyday, he likely earned $10,000/15,000 at best - TRUE numbers in those days. Still a tall figure for one sex scene. He bottomed a LOT as an escort though and likely made $500 /600 or more at a time. He was doing well financially.....for a few years. The looks then faded due to alcohol and drugs and then that was a thing of the past. He never liked men all that much, so getting hard for a trick was difficult, but he was good at giving up the booty. Hopefully that skill has served him well in prison. All in all, he had a bad go at life, but was awarded the genetic lottery with looks in his younger years..

[quote]All the accolades about his beauty in his prime on this thread. Yet I well remember during his actual heydays when DL was rife with posters yakking about his pronounced gynecomastia aka saggy titties situatia. My how times and posters have changed.

His "heyday" and the period during which he had gynecomastia were two periods. The peak of his appearance to which most people are now referring precedes it.

[quote] but he was good at giving up the booty. Hopefully that skill has served him well in prison.

Since he's in protective custody the only action he's getting in prison, if he's getting any, is from the guards.

He's no me.

He was pretty when he was doing porn. But he was sexy when he was out of porn and hairy. I'll take sexy over pretty any day.

I don't know what's sadder with Ken Ryker/Gary Pokorney. That he was a serial drunk driver or that he was driving a Hyundai Santa Fe when he was arrested the last time.

------------------------------------------------------------

A Saturday night rollover sent a Custer man to the hospital with minor injuries.

Gary Pokorney, 38, was traveling on U.S. Highway 16, about 10 miles west of Custer, when his Hyundai Santa Fe left the road about 10:30 p.m., according to South Dakota Highway Patrol Trooper Shann Barrick.

The vehicle struck the rock wall on the right side of the road, rolled and then traveled down the hill on the left side of the road about 50 feet, Barrick said.

Alcohol was a factor in the accident, and Pokorney was cited for driving under the influence, Barrick said.

Pokorney was taken to Custer Regional Hospital with minor injuries, Barrick said.

The Custer County Sheriff's Office and Custer Ambulance Service also responded to the wreck.

This is Gary back in July. He's still a DILF.

at least Gary didn't try to kill anyone with a toilet. Ken was much hotter in his prime than Ryan.

Wikipedia says that Ken Ryker is now working in real estate.

Is she with one of the top real estate agencies?

This is what's keeping that woman [italic]constantly[/italic] pregnant.

Ryker never did much for me. He was rarely hard. Even in the straight porn he did.

The sizemeat is crooked and rather thin.

We would pass.

A pickup truck would be too thin for Erna.

I'll never understand the men who just let their looks go.

As I get older, I notice the ones who were extremely hot in their 20s are the worst at becoming fatter, lazier and more drunk.

Why would they give it all up?

Gary is happily married with a good-sized family, R199. I'd trade that in a heartbeat for a fit body. That's not to say his life is perfect, but he does seem happy. I know others don't care for any of that, but it does resonate with some of us. I'm happy for him.

As for Marc, I hope he finds peace when he's released. In some cases, they start down the dark path again almost immediately. But I'm still hopeful for him. Life's too short to live it in turmoil.

Saw Ryan Idol "perform" at a club in Cathedral City CA circa 1992; showed up hours late, drugged out of his mind, low energy, barely did 15 minutes before ending. Then just walked around with guys grabbing him and stuffing bills into his thong.

Look at R108's GIF, and what I really see is that he could light up the place when he smiled. Even Rod Garetto, mentioned earlier, had the same effect: just flashing that grin meant you were going to have a good time. Ryan had that gorgeous ass, and Rod had that huge dick, but it's their smiles that flip the switch for me.

Even a straight guy shouldn't have to use a 'stunt dick' to fuck Joey Stefano.

That's going to be my new thing around work when people ask me how I'm am "I'm feeling A+ today".

We made far more money 'behind the camera' than any of these stars made in front of it!

R205 but you're into scat so...

Is that really Ken Ryker? At his prime he could charge an escort fee of $5,000 a night!

Years ago got out that TV star Tony Danza hired Ken Ryker out of curiosity and Danza denied it with a serious case of a hissy fit.

Ken has really developed a hefty gut. And he's going bald. He may as well kill himself.

I would never in a million years recognize R192 as Ken Ryker.

Wonder what his kids will think of his past occupation.

Was Jeff Stryker the only one who ever got an action figure doll?

I ran into "Jeff Stryker" at Ralphs (Studio City) a few years back. He is still ripped and gorgeous shockingly - despite his age. He isn't more than 5'6" and that is being generous. His ass looked like two kickballs, he had a six pack and was wearing tight jeans and a leather jacket. One would think that he was just off the set of Top Gun. Was he hot = YES.

Jeff Stryker is more like 5'6 when he is wearing 4 inch lifts!

[quote]He isn't more than 5'6" and that is being generous.

That's why his cock looks so huge. It isn't small of course but he was pissed with the dildo company he worked with because they made it bigger than it really was. Gotta give him credit, most guys would have just said nothing.

R214, You have a weird idea of "hot". I have posted this before, but I was at a party with Jeff Stryker and Robert Goulet. Stryker looked like Goulet's mini-me. Both had shoe polish black hair, orange "tans", and super white false teeth. While their eyebrows had been dyed jet black, nothing was done to the eyelashes; so, they looked really weird. Jeff's six pack is an implant. Like the rest of him, it is not real.

Stryker is still a handsome man, but he needs a more up to date hairstyle. That slicked back Elvis look ages him.

R13 nailed it the whole "gay for pay" thing is just marketing, no actual hetero/straight guy is going to do gay porn and have it out there forever.

The guys that get marketed as "straight" in gay/bi porn are just gay or bi but the porn sites/companies know that some queens need the fantasy of being with a hetero/straight guy and this plays on homophobia/biphobia.

I still want to suck Stryker's peeper.

R194 Mrs. Patrick Campbell the bear porn guy Jack Radcliffe or Frank Martini works in real estate in FL.

Is Ken Ryker bisexual? Or is he gay and one of those religious types that married a woman and says he's "straight" like that 1990s porn guy Tom Katt did?

I imagine the percentage of true bi-sexuals in the gay porn industry is about the same as the percentage in the general public. VERY SMALL. Most of them are just homosexuals who for a myriad of reasons can't or won't admit they prefer sex with men. I think a lot of them have relationships with women as a subconscious way of telling themselves they're not like the rest of the fags in gay porn. They're better because they like to fuck women too or claim outside their porn work they only fuck women. It builds up their very low self esteem.

bisexual = men and dudes

[quote]I imagine the percentage of true bi-sexuals in the gay porn industry is about the same as the percentage in the general public. VERY SMALL.

Completely the opposite. Most people are bisexual. Most bisexuals have a preference for one sex or the other. The fact that they're not exclusively attracted to one sex is what makes them bisexual. Many bisexuals do not label themselves as such, mostly because they want to avoid the public stigma associated with hit. Since they're able to blend in with the straight-affirming world, they feel no need to make any announcements about their sexuality. Many bisexuals are able to live their lives committed to one sex, and even one person, even if they still feel sexual attraction to the other sex. Ryker/Pokorney is bisexual, by the way. He admitted as much in an interview several years ago.

[quote] because they like to fuck women too

Which means that they're bisexual.

There is no such thing as bisexual.

There are homosexuals who fuck fish, but that is about it.

^^^^

Why was Ted Bundy so involved with icky smelly stinkfish?!

Is this Ken Ryker?

That's probably a fan that made that account, trying to impersonate him. His first name is Gary and they only use old pics of him.

R223 is your perfect example of a biphobic gay man. Bisexuality in men is not rare, and there are bisexual men in porn. You are parroting the SAME BS that people used to claim about gay men that we are rare, that men can't really be gay, etc.

A man can be bisexual and prefer men for sex/relationships but this does not make him gay or a closeted or in denial gay guy since he's bisexual and is still sexually attracted to women.

We were once in the living room of a fabulous eldersister (now sadly RIP) who liked to pick up hot young number$ on Santa Monica Blvd and bring them home with her. One particular number was there in the room and he asserted that he was not a fruit but was "bi", to which eldersister replied without missing a beat "Oh, men and boys"?

^^^^^ Then did you tell him you were into scat?

No, but our ex-husband at the time later made a move on the hot number and was refused!

Handsome Ryan of yesteryear. Sigh.......

sadly, ryan had at best averagemeat (7 long on the tape measure), not sizemeat (8 plus).

Now here is a real man, a total bareback top and also a fishfucker!

Heaven!

Too bad Ken and Ryan didn't do a scene together. We're they A list porn starts at the same time?

R232 try living in the real world instead of with other vapid queens like yourself that don't know anything about human sexuality. I am not surprised you are into scat Mrs. Patrick Campbell/Erna. You also need an arm or two to satisfy your hole that's completely stretched out.

How sad that Mary r232 is so unattractive that she has not had any sizemeat for many many moons!

According to information on the internet Ken Ryker is openly bisexual and is now 45 years of age.

R232, it's a line from Saturday Night Fever. I met David Bowie. He's a fag. He's bisexual. I know, he likes men and boys.

Porn star Rod Phillips. Quite popular as a bottom. Died in 1993 at age 32.

Lee Ryder and Rod Phillips were a couple and worked together in gay porn movies. Both gone (deceased) but not forgotten.

Intoxicatingly Sexy.

Both Lee and Rod perspired from drugs (aka "AID$")

He was hot in his prime

I am the only one to be fascinated by Arnaldo Santana (MALO was his gay porn actor name in the late 70's) since I saw him in the movie CRUISING, he played the first character (Loren Lukas) who was killed in the St JAMES Hotel. He was HANDSOME, SEXY and PERFECT. Nobody mentioned him, why ?????

Oh wow

he was the best back in the day.

I sucked his dick and asshole at the old Campus theatre on San Francisco bak in the day.

I still jak off to the memory, he was Hot fun

Saw lee ryder stripping at some dive in nyc ages ago. god he was hot, he had a guy who was like his 'handler' and didn't seem to want him to do privates,,,i was bummed. but when he worked the audience I got to hole and suk his dik for a bit. he was quite tiny, but perfect, very shy, quite the gentleman

For (R250), how was Arnaldo Santana (A.K.A Malo) personally and humanly ?

Did he die of AIDS in 1993, as I read it on another thread ?

Is he out yet?

[Quote] most others only had sex with men for money, never off camera.

Self report isn't a great research method, dearie.

Someone on DL recently said he went to h.s. in Worcester, MA with Ryan Idol when he was Marc Anthony Donais. He said Donais was extremely nice back then despite being passed around from foster home to foster home, and even in high school knew he wanted to get into porn (by wanting to pose for Playgirl, which he eventually did).

I think he did some military time after h.s., but he ran into trouble because he wasn't very able to keep discipline with himself. He DID develop the discipline to achieve a fantastic body, and he made a huge impression with his very first movie, Idol Eyes. They were body builders with porn studios like Colt and Fox and Zeus, but it was not easy to get their videos in all parts of the country. Idol was one of the fist guys promoted by a more widely-available studio like HIS to have a body like that--the aesthetic before had been skinnier overtanned blond guys, but Idol's more muscled look (combined with his huge dick and sculpted ass) was more popular with the onset if AIDS--when men wanted their bodies to look like muscle suits to protect them from the disease.

r253, there was not a match to the surname Donais in the California Inmate Locator system, so he may have been released.

This is from Ryan idol's wikipedia entry. it sounds like he could not be released any earlier than 2023.

[quote]A Sacramento Superior Court jury convicted Idol on September 20, 2011, of attempted murder for smashing his girlfriend over the head with a toilet tank lid. He was also convicted of battery, assault with a deadly weapon and "corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant". Sentencing was scheduled for December 9, 2011; however when he appeared, his attorney requested to withdraw from the case. The request was granted. Idol then appeared in court on January 13, 2012, requesting a retrial "citing ineffective assistance of counsel". He was sentenced to 12 years in state prison September 27, 2012. He is housed at the California inmate Medical Facility (CMF)in Vacaville, California, a medical facility for mentally ill prisoners, due to bad behavior, fighting, and drugs. Marc Anthony lost all his good time, and must complete his full sentence of 12 years. Due to his 3 strike record, he is eligible for life without parole if convicted of another violent crime, so he chose a deal to do his entire sentence instead of getting a new charge. his release date is August 2023 (protective custody)

R241 In your dreams. Ken Ryker/Gary Pokorney is a crazy Trumptard with 5 kids.

Oh wow. Pokorney is so plain now.

Ryker/Pokorney is a minster living in Custer, SD, which is pretty remote out in the Black Hills. It's a pretty town, though, with a lot of art galleries.

A munster?

It's amazing how much fame Ryan Idol managed to generate out of just seven porn films.

We went to see "The Ritz" when he had a cameo in it. We ran into him in the street after the show and it sorta seemed to us like he was expecting us to buy him drinks or food. We didn't.

Do you look like johns?
