Does this turn you on? Unavoidable YouTube personality Davey Wavey just interviewed adult film star Brent Corrigan for his Business of Sex web series, eking out stories about his early beginnings in the adult film industry, why he wants to steer clear of promoting King Cobra, and his lifelong obsession with horses.

“Gay porn is a way of life,” Corrigan intones. “It’s a day in and day out thing, cultivating fans, traveling.”
A couple of years ago I got to a point where porn wasn’t giving me what I thought it would. I stepped back and thought – what would make me happy? For me, my passion was always horses. I went back to jumping with horses.”
Elsewhere, they discuss James Franco‘s King Cobra, loosely based on his sketchy beginnings in the porn biz.
How about we take this to the next level?

“I didn’t want to be a part of that film if they weren’t going to tell my story,” he says. “I read the script – and it wasn’t my story.”
Now he’s “being brave” and self-publishing his own version of the story.
“I’m aiming for an October 31st release date, on my 30th birthday.”

Thinking he’s more pissed about not getting a fat check than any alleged “bastardization” of his story …

Brent’s porn was better when he was younger .I don’t care for his look these days .he is a millionaire he can do what he pleases but ill take the old Sean /Brent anytime..Wavy on the other hand makes my skin crawl
ChrisK
@Terrycloth: A millionaire? How so?

@highestbidder: Nothing to bastardize. You’re either innocent and naive or you would’ve had to know more then you’re letting on which would counter the first point. I’ll take the killers version.

Interesting to hear Two varieties of the “gay voice” in conversation (Davey and Brent). Now now, don’t lecture me about stereotypes. First off, I place no judgment on it. A “gay voice” is just as valid as a “straight voice,” as far as I’m concerned. But more importantly, the gay voice is a real physiological phenomenon that is recognized by sexologists, phonologists and laryngologists. Indeed, many scientific studies have validated it. In fact, may gay studies even mask the voice because of this. Most famous is the Harvard study which showed that gaydar is real. In it, gays and heterosexuals watched short [3 sec,7 sec and 10 sec] videos of men and try to guess if the subject was gay or straight. To eliminate any obvious cues, the videos were silent and the men were shown in silhouette. Sure enough, gays were more successful at identifying the gay men, with the success rate increasing with the length of the clip. The researchers concluded that there are unconscious clues in the our bodily movements that correlate with sexual orientation.
As an aside, we also found anecdotal evidence that these cues also exists for race. For example, Asian colleagues of mine were able to identify other Asians from their backs, regardless of hair color/texture/style or exposed skin. They say that even if the hair was blond and curly, and the skin was covered, they can usually identify another Asian walking away from them.

@Terrycloth: If Sean Lockhardt was a millionaire, he wouldn’t be doing porn. He admitted it was financial need that forced him to revive Brent Corrigan. He blew a lot of his money on the ill-fated “Triple Cross”

I have never understood the whole allure of Brent Corrigan. I understand every porn star has their background and story but I am so tired of people covering this tired guy. He started porn when he was 17 which is not legal, period. And he knew this as well as Cobra but to hear Brent Corrigan tell the tale, he was used and abused and taken advantage of. Bitch please. I just have never bought what he is selling. Not to mention that I have never considered him attractive, even when he did bareback porn as a twink with Cobra which he seems in denial about now that he is Mr. Condom. And let’s just be real, shall we, he left mainstream acting and went back to porn because he has no talent, and he isn’t so attractive. Just log onto Chaterbate on any given night and you will see Brent whoring himself out for tokens. I just wished Brent Corrigan would go away because we are tired of his story, tired of his porn, and tired of his tiring self adulations!

@ChrisK: He makes about 2 million a year, simple google search.

A lot of people would disagree with you. But more importantly, who is forcing you to expose yourself to ANY of those thing? It’s not as if he is mentioned on the nightly news, or even Queerty with any regularity. The title of this article made it clear that it’s about Corrigan. Was it really that hard to just ignore it? Me thinks the Lady doth protest too much.
GeoffreyBridgman
Why did he have to drink all of those protein powders? Someone needs to tell gay men — the goal of life is not to fashion yourself into the shape of a lobster! It’s not cute
Terrycloth
Damon 459 is correct Sean is worth 2 million + Google Sean Lockhart or brent Corrigan net worth

where to posted comments go when you hit “post comment” and they don’t appear?

The movie KING COBRA is set to hit a theater or two (and ondemand) on October 21.

I think he has become better looking with age. His story is interesting and what side of the story to believe is up to you. When people are in their teens they sometimes make poor judgement. Brent has gone through a lot and seems to be more grounded now. As far as him being a bad actor I beg to differ. He started in an independent film in 2013 titled ‘Truth’ and gave a bone chilling performance. I think his porn past has prevented him from doing more mainstream acting. As for his being worth 2 million dollars— I highly doubt that. Porn actors don’t make that kinda money. I remember in the past reading about him working at American Eagle as a salesperson and now – that he’s living currently on a ranch in Idaho or some crazy place like that and is dead broke. I commend him for being a survivor in an industry that eats up people like him.
ChrisK
@Terrycloth: I’m not disagreeing but from where? He’s done allot of things but what’s making the guy rich? He’s done some porn and they don’t make much these days and some low budget films. None of the sites really elaborate. He does have a rich sugar daddy though.
ChrisK
@GeoffreyBridgman: It’s called growing up darling. You can’t be a twink forever.

Lockhart licensed his “names” to the King Cobra production, you can search the prior “I Am Michael” production to get an idea of how much those production companies pay to license life rights for their movies. In King Cobra’s case, the budget for rights probably had to be split between Corrigan and the rights to a book.

@MarionPaige: Those posts just disappear. I’s a major problem with Queerty but none of the staff gives a damn. Many of us have complained bitterly for months to deaf ears. Same goes for posts that are supposedly waiting for moderation, i.e. posts that contain the word, “r a c i s t.” But no one actually reads them so they’ll never appear. Queerty is a joke compared to other LGBT forums which use better software.

@glennr: You seem to go out of your way to display your negativity to the world. People who are tired of him would simply skip over articles like this. I adore Brent Corrigan.

Unavoidable? I find Davey Wavey very easy to avoid. He annoys the hell outta me, and I don’t have to listen to him. I see him coming, I go the opposite way. Easy.
highestbidder
@damon459: yeah from “facts” he put on Google himself hahaha actually it’s not a bad trick I just gave myself a huge raise and put on Google that I make 12 million a year!
highestbidder
@MarionPaige: he didn’t get squat and you don’t license your names to productions people get movies made about them all the time and don’t get paid. That’s why he turned against this movie, he was all gung ho about it until he realized he wasn’t getting any money and he wasn’t going to get offered a part

Brent is just fine. I admire his poise, maturity and articulateness while being interviewed by the insufferable Davey Wavey.
Someone needs to tell Davey that he is way too long in the tooth to act like the cute, charming and effervescent twinky that he never was.

@highestbidder: “he didn’t get squat and you don’t license your names to productions people get movies made about them all the time and don’t get paid.”
“Life Rights” is a thing. The Michael of the movie “I Am Michael” was paid for his life rights even though the movie was inspired by a NYT Article. “Michael” has same director as “King Cobra”.
SonOfKings
Brent seems surprisingly attractive and refreshed at this stage of his journey. I seriously doubt he’s a millionaire though. Those celebrity net worth web sites can be very inaccurate as the authors have not access to a celeb’s actual bank and tax records. They just try to estimate worth based on assumptions about income derived from work and other activities.

@robho3: I agree with you completely. ‘Truth’ was an incredibly intense story and his performance was phenomenal, IMHO.

I like Sean/Brent but DW is just so lame. I had to turn the interview off about a quarter into it.
