John Davenport: Late 80s gay porn Stud

Man if I weren’t already gay his scene in Big Guns would have turned me. Apparently he was straight (bi?) but he was really good at gay sex!

I have never gotten his appeal, but accept that many find him attractive.

Should be about 50 by now. Anyone have a true update on him?

I knew his older sister, Dawn.

More like mid-50s. The late Mike Henson, his co-star in BIG GUNS, was born in 1963.

R1 made me want to look up that scene.

Loved him. Had great chemistry with Tony Marino who did a couple of scenes with him.

I’m very disappointed to read the comments at OP’s link that they had to use a stunt dick in his scenes because he couldn’t stay hard.

In the early 90s he would run ads for his services in the LA paper Frontiers. He was probably in demand then.

He was hot, I don't think he ever bottomed though

I used to have a DVD with a scene where he bottomed but apparently it was faked. Looked real to me from what I recall but someone either here or on the old Atkol forums said it was a stunt bottom. It was a compilation so I don’t know what video it originally came from.

Can't remember how many loads I lost watching Davenport cum. Big dicks + big shooters = push me over the edge.

I loved him.in his big scene in Powertool, where Jeff Stryker is in the next cell and is jerking off to him and the other guy as John is yelling, "Eat my ass faggot!"

He was a regular man when he did porn and his attraction is universal. He was not plucked and pumped full of steroids to have the "Chelsea gay" look. It had already started by then. I wonder what he looks like these days? He is probably married with kids and a beer belly and driving an 18 wheeler.

Davenport and Marino were so hot together.

[quote]He was hot, I don't think he ever bottomed though

He bottomed for Mike Henson. I forget which movie, Bad Boys Club maybe, but I think it's on The Best of John Davenport video.

If Stryker hadn't been considered God back then, John would have had an even bigger career.

It's amazing how much he looks like gay-for-pay porn actor Drake Mitchell.

I am sooo disappointed nobody has any updates on this stud. He was just a fucking hot guy back in the day.

He did have a "real guy" sort of hotness...though that seldom ages well.

If he survived the Plague, he'd be well into his 50s by now. So, probably not quite the same as he used to be...

R19 I think he's alive but in hiding somewhere

Also, I have never seen an actual VERIFICATION that Tex Anthony died in 1992 anywhere

Not online, nowhere

Just some adult sites saying 1982 with a ?

Even on here, people from that era post sometimes and they knew some of them guys and it has never been OFFICIALLY verified that he died

It makes you wonder

My all time favorite, a decade later, was Ken Ryker. Now that was a man. He must be about 47 or so by now. That cock....OMG

John Davenport is clerking for Supreme Court Justice Mike Branson.

[Quote]He is probably married with kids and a beer belly and driving an 18 wheeler.

That sounds about right. I doubt he has aged well.

He is a favorite of mine too though, still love going back to his scenes.

My 80s faves were Glenn Steers and Randy Paul (his straight name, forget his gay pron one).

Ken Ryker updates the gay media periodically.

He's married, with several kids and an alcoholic.

We hear and see less of him ever since David Forest died, of course.

His scene with Lyndon Blair was hot. That was Lyndon's only porn scene as far as I know - I always wondered why and what happened to him.

Supposedly it was David Ashfield who stunt cocked for Davenport. Ashfield was apparently the go to stunt cock for the stars who couldn't get or keep it up. He stunted for Jeff Stryker for his first few movies also.

He got an Art History degree at UCLA and had a gallery in Saint-Tropez where his husband ran the Port. John was bored in the winter and took to selling very high end jewellery in Genève. He flourished at that and now does consulting for jewel auctions and museum jewellery curatorship.

John Davenport has taken an interest with a neighbor's son Joel. He has a small dog and enjoys the local town coffee klatches because he is such a yenta.

[quote] I am sooo disappointed nobody has any updates on this stud. [bold]He was just a fucking hot guy[/bold] back in the day.

I think you answered your own question. He was just a hot guy. That’s it. Nothing more, nothing less. He wasn’t famous in the traditional sense and was merely a hot guy in a sea of hot guys.

R27 David Ashfield was so cute in that boy next door way

David Ashfield was more like the boy next door who could hook you up with weed.

R32 David Ashfield seemed to be in everything for awhile there

Ashfield was plain and cute in the face and had such an exciting big club of a dick.

Ashfield knew how to throw a good fuck.

R34 yes but his "plainness" made him hot in that dirty college boy 80s way

I'm glad to know that he is still alive and is only 59

Still never got an official word from anybody on any forum about Tex Anthony. I've been searching the last couple of years, anything I could find relating to his so called death in 1992 but I get things that contradict each other and again there was no date of death nor did his real name get released

Something tells me someone on here or another board just said that he died, and certain sites "ran with it"

I wouldn't be surprised if he was still alive, almost 60 and selling real estate or something

I always thought he could have been adjacent, with that nappy-ish hair and pubes, not to mention that donkey dick!

R4 I heard she was eating a meatball sandwich out in class and been passing notes.

Any relation to N'dea?

He could hit you in the eye with a cumshot across a the room. Never saw anyone shoot like he did.

Making it rain!

So no one knows what happened to him?

Come on DL porn insiders!

He's fine! He sends his love!

My all-time favorite.

Jesus Christ, let it go.

To be clear, he's either dead or in his late 50s, old and fat. Those are the options. He ain't going to look the slightest bit like he did in 1985.

Also: apparently gay for pay.

R45 who cares? Late 50s isn't "old" anymore

And he could look good for his age

There's guys at my gym in their 50s and older who look good

Vanished: Gay Porn

R47 like I stated before, a lot of porn (gay and straight) actors who vanish are falsely announced as dead, without any official source, it's all internet BS

Tex Anthony is the prime example of this and not a single person has ever confirmed that he died of AIDS in 1992, in fact his "death" was never reported anywhere at that time not even in MANSHOTS , which listed obits for dead gay porn performers every issue

Also Tex dying of AIDS is suspect since he only bottomed, and even that's questionable (stunt bottoming?) And when he went to do bisexual and straight porn in the late 80s, he fucked many females condom less, and NONE of those actresses died of AIDS, so if Tex had AIDS in 1988/1989, they would have gotten it

He was also supposedly gay for pay, so the only reason that he would have a high percentage of contracting AIDS would be if he was an intrevenous drug user

R48 here, I meant to say that Tex only bottomed a couple of times he was PREDOMINANTLY a top in porn

And again his bottoming scenes were always shot odd with lots of cuts

Stunt bottom?

R39 "No Never Again" by N'dea Davenport is on the September 1998 Gap In-Store Playlist!

If you are a Chelsea circuit party Queen, 55 is the new 24!... Fortunes have been spent trying to achieve this outcome, just maybe Mr. John Davenport has been keeping up with the Chelsea Boy Jones.

R51 my cousin is 57 and a fire fighter turned captain and if he wasn't my cousin, he could get it

He's in great shape and still got

It can happen

I'm only 36 by the way, my 57 year old cousin is only three years younger than my Mom

R52 is right, there are many men who go downhill really fast after 40, but there are many men who for reasons of good genetics and good habits can keep it really looking fine into their 50s and early 60s. These guys usually don't do botox or have capped teeth or hair transplants. They keep fit and maintain a confidence that no plastic surgeon can provide.

Shoo, Aspie Gap Playlist Loon!

Damn that dude could SHOOT

Cum everywhere!

Blue Collar Trade never ages well.

still no updates on this stud? wow. DL queens you are all slipping

R57 right?

And still no official confirmation on the deaths of Bill Henson, Tex Anthony and Kip Noll

Didn't Chi Chi Larue used to post on here?

Hmmmm....straight trade does gay porn 35 years ago for a couple years under assumed name, leaves that lifestyle and returns to Straight Land Suburbia where he got married, had some kids, gained 50 lbs and is totally unrecognizable.

Not hard to believe.

You’re him r59! You’re trying very hard to throw us off this case!

The greater likelihood is that he had an early death.

Do most of you live in fly over towns? Some of these posts are sad- as in sad lives. I see fat , lonely small town men with lap dogs.

[Quote] I see fat , lonely small town men with lap dogs.

Cool story, bro.

Someone (or a group of people) needs to start a gay version of The Rialto Report and track down these MIA stars and interview them. The surviving ones aren't getting any younger so they need to act sooner than later.

They'd probably need to do some crowd funding because it probably wouldn't be cheap tracking a bunch of people down and I'm sure some would need some money to be willing to talk, plus the costs for website maintaining and podcast editing.

They didn't have a whole lot of success, because of budget reason mainly, to track down a whole lot of the past Falcon stars for the Seed Money documentary.

Because of the budget? The AIDS epidemic was less of an obstacle to their aims?

Loved his black dude hair. Made him seem Very masculine and ethnic

R61 it would have been reported, also I think some porn stars that are supposedly "dead", aren't. I think they just disappeared and allowed people online to make shit up about their "death"

Many have no official confirmation and there have been porn stars, mostly female, who've FAKED their own deaths just to get out of the business and be left alone

Google it

It's hilarious

Many a sex worker meets an unfortunate end. Add the era of which you're talking (1980s)... it's almost a foregone conclusion. The likelihood of a significant number of these men faking death? Miniscule.

R68 I didn't say THESE guys from this era faked their death, I said many just left the business and people online just say "he died" and then it gets picked up by others, without ZERO verification

I could say early 80s gay porn blond hunk Lee Mann "died" in 2019, by all accounts he didn't, I could edit it into Wiki or IMDB and it'll be picked up by other porn sites and even on here, without any verification, just making shit up and people will believe it

I guarantee it

R66 They tracked down dozens of stars that were still alive, but didn't have to money to travel to where they were or pay for them to come to them.

It's harder to fake your death in the more recent years due to many resources online, but you have to know their real name first (birthdate really helps too) to be able to prove or disprove that they died. Many of the stars from the 70s, 80s, 90s real names aren't known.

The obits in porn mags, more often than not, included the stars real name, date of birth and death, sometimes with even more information (like where they were born and died) which makes it easy to verify most of time.

R70 exactly and Tex Anthony, Bill Henson and Kip Bill's deaths were NEVER officially confined by anybody, anywhere

There death dates and real names were all also never released

It's all speculation

OR, many ARE dead because it was the era of The Plague which wiped out a generation of gay men...especially ones having lots and lots of sex with each other like porn stars.

Surmising that dead porn stars aren't actually dead from AIDS in an era that killed so many is...gross.

Good GOD. Tex Anthony is still alive, okay? He delivered my Uber eats last night. End of argument.

R72 Tex only bottomed three times, was straight in his personal life and moved into straight porn towards the end of his career

In 1988, 1989, 1990 a supposedly HIV positive Tex had tons of straight porn sex with women WITHOUT a condom and yet those women are still alive and didn't contact AIDS from him but he's dead?

It doesn't add up

Early 90s he painted professionally. He painted my sister's condo in Silver Lake.

Which three movies R74?

[quote]There death dates and real names were all also never released

Oh, dear!
