Just weeks after the deaths of gay adult film performers Dimitri Kane, 20, and Zac Stevens, 25, comes news that Jasper Robinson has died at age 21. Robinson had performed in dozens of scenes for gay porn studios such as Boy Crush, CockyBoys, Helix Studios and NextDoorStudios during the past three years. Last October he announced he was retiring from performing.
Philip Ashton, a friend of Robinson’s and a fellow porn performer, tweeted the news:
R.I.P @JasperRobinson I love you & I know you are at peace! Spread your giant wings & fly high. Gone to damn soon. pic.twitter.com/76U86VweDz

Adult site Str8UpGayPorn learned from a source close to Robinson that he suffered from a heart condition, which may have played a role in his death.

Why are all these porn stars dying all of the sudden. Seems like one a week

His friend was right. He did touch a lot of people. RIP

Sad … too young

Another one bites the dust…

How does someone die at 21? Unreal.
Cory M. Warren
Drug abuse, transmitted diseases, domestic abuse… All things common in the porn industry.

So sad. X X

suicide, drugs, heart conditions. myriad reasons.

Twenty-one is ridiculously young to die. Gay porn stars seem to burn bright and fast. A 21 year old is barely out of adolescence.

Porn attracts a mix crowd of people. Not all are gay, many are straight… some are raising money to go through college some are trying to feed addiction problems. Some die because of other things in their lives like mental health concerns. Look at how many porn stars recently have been arrested for robbery or murder or what have you. The article says it may have been related to a heart condition. Either way, my thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Jesus take the wheel. Geezz…I’m always thinking that next slice of cake or cheese burger is what’s gonna do me in. If it was drugs, I have to say a food addiction isn’t much different.
Addiction is addiction. God bless his family.

It seems like each week there is a report of a gay porn star who died young.
Morgan S. Trouillet
OMG Chris 😮
Michael Golden
Another one? wow….
BigG
He had a heart condition apparently, and when you don’t eat, that makes it worse.

@JerseyMike:
Just got that. Lol. Rip.

Gay porn equal early death… yikes…
KerryB
Kind of playing fast and loose with the term “star”, aren’t we? He was ugly and anorexic.
J.r. Graff
Of all of these porn star deaths how many of them died because they were on drugs and if that’s the case, the gay media just so happens to conveniently not mention that. Just dust it under the rug like the gay community has done with HIV…….
Doughosier
Sad to die so young. He was cute. It’s usually drugs that are the problem.
Chris
I’m going to take a guess that he had a heart condition in the same way that the singer, Andy Gibb who died at the age of 30, did. Cocaine (ab)use is known to cause heart problems.
Joey Okowitz
This is going to make for an awkward fap.
John Vick
A great loss.

Why is there a dead gay porn star on a weekly basis?
alphacentauri
Very sad. Rest in peace.

Pornography is the filmed version of prostitution. It is sordid.
You’d be better avoiding it. If you are desperate for money, there are millions of other things you can do with your life.
Bad choices in life lead to bad consequences. It’s sad what happened to this poor young man but it is not entirely unexpected for performers in the profession.
Kal Andrews
Life in the fast lane?
Derrode Louis Rowe
And straight pornstars are dropping left, right, & just as much.
Dan Knapper
should prolly lay off drugs. :/

If this continues we’ll lose all porn stars.Something must be in the air if they’re kicking the bucket so often.

@Brian: Thanks for the moralizing and shaming of porn performers, we will all be ashamed and mark it with 30 seconds of silence next time we jack off to porn. We feel sure you are Above all of That as you have made Superior life choices. Congratulations.
Phillip Bernal
and yet pages like this one, glorify this life as if it’s the ultimate lifestyle. They are nothing more than costly hookers who share their fate just in designer jeans…

@J.r. Graff: Actually there’s no truth in your statement, the reality is the opposite. Thanks for the Troll’s opinion.
scotshot
@Brian: It’s rather sordid when a closet case comes to this site and makes denigrating statements all the while masturbating. smh
Giancarlo85
Brian isn’t a closet case. He’s heterosexual. He’s here to harass gay people with his stupid remarks and hates women. He hates women because they always reject him. And gay men wouldn’t want to get with a phony like him.

Sympathies to Mr. Robinson’s family and friends at his death and in their grief at their loss of a guy close to them. Questions and speculations about his death and drugs seem
to be the concern by some who have commented here.
Death at a young age from heart could be caused by imbalance in cardiac muscle of potassium or calcium which could be caused by use of other drugs; or, one could be a person with a family and/or genetic history of high cholesterol (some of the thinnest people can have high cholesterol) and a blockage could have occurred. Besides the pleasure and entertainment Mr. Robinson gave that many enjoyed, from his death people could be looking at their own heart health and having a conversation with their physician and/or cardiologist.
I give thanks for Mr. Robinson, and I hold those for whom I know and care much closer.

RIP

Why are you people so concerned about how he died, so sad what we have become, my thoughts and prayers goes out to all the family, so young, may you rest in peace
seaguy
Funny how everyone becomes a know it all blaming drugs, HIV, or other reasons for a porn stars death when they don’t know shit.
BlogShag
@Chris: , Really, your silly assumption is that it must of been drugs?? The pathetic standard of the USA diet can cause heart problems in a flash. It’s the number one killer. That being said, he looks anorexic and pale like a meth or heroin addict
