VIEWPOINTS — “I can’t say that I don’t like [the attention] but I think it’s too much. Too much for what it is. I understand if someone is a fan of Tina Turner or Cher. But being a fan of a porn star? I can understand the sexual obsession of someone because it’s a desire but being a fan of all the movies you have done, remembering which movies you did when and with whom, and what kind of beard I had in this particular film, that I don’t understand. But an obsession of the new Beyonce video and the choreography, the outfits, that is another story. That I do understand completely. … I am obsessed with my own muscles. I used to be this shy little boy. I am going to show you a picture of me when I was fifteen. You are not going to believe your eyes.” —Porn star, model, and cultural phenom Francois Sagat on obsessions [Interview]

Just another steroid-filled Muscle Mary….

Every time I have seen Sagat in a video he always looks as though he wished he were someplace else. Like his body is there but his soul isn’t. Robosex is the specialty of the house at Raging Stallion.
John
he just looks dirty and used up. and I hate that head tatoo, it makes him look like a screwed up GI JOE doll….maybe thats what he’s going for? mission accomplished Francois!
Strepsi
Yo, you three b*tches! François Sagat is gorgeous, frank, and with a real artistic sensibility (check out his blog). I did hear he regrets the head tattoo (um, yeah. Not a smart thing, a head tattoo). But he is absolutely delish, always. And those eyes!
Zocotroco
Artistic sensibility… hehehe….since when that is requirement to make porno videos?
Alec
I think he’s pretty sexy, but one of his favorite movies is Hostel II. That’s a hard one to explain.
Jake
Like Britney says.. “gimme gimme more, gimme more gimme gimme more”
John Santos
I did hear he regrets the head tattoo
So I have to ask, Strepsi, why did he do it? Any insight into this? My brother still regrets his “Keep On Truckin'” tattoo, but that’s covered up by his shirt. A head tattoo is just out there.

@John Santos:
As far as I’ve read from his mouth he doesn’t…and he did it because he was going bald, loosing his air..
Also, the tatoo for those who aren’t cultured is the logo for Algeria…
Francois claims it’s cause he is fascinated by Algerian/North African men…but I’m sure his got in his ethnicity..
He has that very mixed good looking look that ALL my french friends have, who have Arabic blood..
John from England(used to be just John but there are other John's)
Also, if you look at his drawings, he has his tatoo symbol everywhere…
That isn’t someone who is upset about the tatoo…it’s HIM…his brand…
It’s his edge and he’s an artist..
getreal
@Alec: LOL I having a lazy evening once and watched it (Hostel 2). Favorite movie? Definitely not but not half bad surprisingly. This guy is pure sex appeal head tattoo notwithstanding (he could always grow his hair then the tattoo would essentially disappear.
Alec
@John from England(used to be just John but there are other John’s): I think he’s Lebanese.
@getreal: I enjoy horror flicks (even slashers) as much as the next guy for a cheap form of entertainment. It was the “favorite movie” comment that bothered me. 😉
But I agree, this guy is hot.
scott ny'er
he can grow his hair unless he’s going bald.
hardmannyc
I met at the Black Party last year. He’s seriously short. When you’re that short and muscular you get that Mighty Mouse look.

@Alec:
But that logo/emblem is part of the algerian flag…
And he did say he was into Algerians…
Lebanese people didn’t mix or don’t mix that much in France…well noy as much as the Algerians..
Have you seen La Haine?
Anyway, below is the link for Sagat’s tatoo…the Algerian emblem..

@hardmannyc:
But he’s soo fine…
😉
Alec
@John from England(used to be just John but there are other John’s): I just took the info from his wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_Sagat
And I did see Hate, but it has been years….
Ctprep
Wicked sexy! He can join me in bed any day!
Jason
Disgusting
afrolito
I love Sagat…..even moreso aftr that interview. Not only is he sexy, but he’s intelligent an artistic as well.
As for his head tat. He can’t grow his hair out since he’s bald….hence the head tattoo.
hardmannyc
@John from England(used to be just John but there are other John’s): Hey, Mighty Mouse was one of my many childhood sex fantasies!
TANK
Another little guy under 5’10”. Slightly under average…in the u.s., anyway…for a white male. Hostel II? I guess he didn’t see Hostel to compare it to.
Hernan
I’m obsessed with HIS own muscles too.
Aamyko
Whatev’s He ain’t that hot.
Isabello
He´s really short, so, like most of short guys who develop an inferiority complex he must make up for it with muscles…that´s all…my boyfriend is way hotter, taller, and without the tattoo…
Chitown Kev
Francois is hot (but not that hot, which is a turn on to me), intelligent, and edgy. Love it!
John from England(used to be just John but there are other John's)
@Isabello:
Pah.
Each to his/her own!
Bertie
thanks for clarifying about his inked scalp
I never knew what that was?!!
he is swarthy sexy – but I prefer passionate men acting like they are present in the scenes.

you can expect the smallest crowd on Wednesday —literally, for the bar’s “Runt” party for short gay men who are big on fun. So the next time people tell you that you’re going nowhere, ask them to join you. You’ll all have a blast at this East Village dive.
