Jack Manly is happy to see that many top picks from 2009 are keeping busy, turning in great work, and making us look good for choosing them. With that in mind we'll be keeping you up to date on several of these sexy guys during the next few weeks. We start off with one of our favorite newcomers of 2009 Alessio Romero.
As mentioned before we ran into Alessio Romero when he was participating as an artist's model at last year's Tom Of Finland Erotic Art Fair. By the way, the fair also coincides with the Mr LA Leather contest (this year it's on the weekend of March 28 & 29th). Ironically this year Alessio's husband (known as the Silver Fox) is representing Eagle LA, an honor he just won this past weekend. From all this you're correct to assume that Alessio Romero has done some kinky stuff since he started in the biz but he's not limiting his video work to that alone. In fact he's become quite busy in the last few months working in movies and for online video sites.

It's easy to see why Alessio Romero has become a sought after performer. He has a classically handsome face and muscular body plus distinctive facial hair & tatts---he's got a look of a dangerously sexy Latin lover. There's also a vaguely mysterious, enigmatic aura about Alessio Romero thanks to a relatively quiet demeanor contrasting nicely with his dynamic performing style. Of course being that he's still relatively new, his style is still evolving as you can see by viewing his body of work. As we mentioned he's been busy of late with lots more to follow, but here's where you can find his work so far:

"By and large in this country the issue of gay rights and equality should be past the point of debate. Really, there should be no debate anymore. For me, in my small platform as a professional football player, I understand that my time in the spotlight is probably limited. The more times you have to lend your name to a cause you believe in, you should do that...A year ago or two years ago, I remember reading about an initiative that was proposed in the state of Arkansas. It was some kind of measure that was aimed at preventing adoptions by single parents. Now, the way I read that and the way that I translated that language was that only heterosexual, married couples could adopt children. As an adopted child that really bothered me...."
..."I asked myself, what that is really saying is that the concern with one's sexual orientation or one's sexual preference outweighs what's really important, and that's finding safe homes for children, for our children. It's also saying that we'd rather have kids bounce around from foster home to foster home throughout the course of their childhood, than end up in a permanent home, where the parent, whether that person's single or not, gay or straight. Either way, it doesn't matter. It's a home that's going to be provided for a kid who desperately needs a home. As an adopted child, that measure really bothered me. It just boggles my mind because good, loving homes for any child are the most important thing."
Fujita is not Japanese as you can see. He was adopted by an third generation Japanese father & white mother and has lived his live raised in Japanese-American culture. He also learned about the prejudices and discrimination that his father's side of the family endured during WWII so that must also have shaped his ideas about equal rights.
Scott Fujita is straight, married, and has kids and in his interview he expressed that he has no concern that his support for gay rights puts his own sexuality into question. "I know who I am. My wife knows who I am. I don't care one way or the other. I imagine that when some of this gets out guys in the locker room might give me a hard time, and they always give me a hard time. They call me the Pinko Communist Fag from Berkeley. I'm used to it. I can take it all."
Lest you think that Scott Fujita is a lone voice in the NFL he is joined by Ravens linebacker Brendan Ayanbadejo who supports marriage equality and has written editorials to that effect. Fujita & Ayanbadejo have stated that they don't think of themselves as courageous--they are just doing the right thing.
So we wonder what all those right-wing Christians that saw Hurricane Katrina as punishment for New Orleans are thinking now?












Staghomme has been around for almost two years but if you're still unfamiliar with this well-crafted site Stag Reel should give you a good idea of what it's about. The site and the DVD feature Crosse, D'Macho, and a cast of amazingly hot & sexy international performers in well-produced and often lushly-crafted story-heavy scenes. Picking out only six scenes out of the wealth of videos offered by Staghomme isn't an enviable task but here's what they've chosen:
Fresh Meat. This one takes place on a Madrid rooftop hot tub with Brazilian muscle studs Pedro Andreas and Petter Fill. Andreas should be very familiar to you from various sites & movies while Fill is a newbie.
Kama Sutra. The action moves to Barcelona where Jean Franko picks up Damien Crosse and takes him home for some hot, hard topping.
Skyscrapers. It's an international buffet as super-hot Argentinian Max Schutler gets manhandled & double-fucked by two hung studs--Venezuelan Lucio Saints & Greek Biktor Vossou.
Blue Collar. Francesco D'Macho seduces his plumber, Staghomme exclusive Bruno Fernandez Gutierrez.
The Red Stag. This is the video that introduced two Staghomme exclusives --muscled Cuban Tomy Hawk & Spaniard Bruno Fernandez Gutierrez . They're the ones in control as they power-top Damien Crosse.
A Fuck in the Sun. Another rooftop in Madrid and a mid-day flip flop scene with Lucio Saints and Damien Crosse. It's both romantic & sexually heated.
