The masses have spoken! After a very, very long campaign the results are in and we have the pleasure to announce that QueerClick readers have chosen Tanner from Sean Cody as the Man Of The Year 2015!
This year’s competition for the MOTY title was tougher than ever, 18 candidates emerged from the first stage that saw QC commenters casting the names of the porn stars they thought excelled during twenty fifteen. Once we opened the poll for the final round of voting the race was on and votes exceeded our expectations. On the final day of the year voting ended and three names led the pack. Tanner was the clear winner with 12.86% of the total, Alex Mecum the closest contender, was the runner-up with 11.56% and third place went to another SC star, Brandon with a worthy 8.45%. Congratulations to all!
We’d like to thank everyone who participated whether by voting, commenting or campaigning for their favorites on social media, you guys rocked 2015 and we’re sure will do the same and even more in 2016!!!
Now, what do you think of our freshly crowned MOTY? Do you think he won riding the merits of his perfect good looks (in case you are wondering, 5’10” height and 175 lb. weight) or is this the result of a career that’s been building over time? Tanner has produced 37 scenes for Sean Cody so far and with more than a dozen released in 2015 alone. He was the man that finally made a bottom out of Brandon, an honor we’re sure many envied and perhaps something that factored in his resulting title win. And despite that he identifies himself as straight, even though he didn’t hold anything back in the bedroom. With his 6 inch cock and one of the most perfect furry butts in porn, Tanner has done EVERYTHING you could imagine in front of a camera and barebacked his way to the top and ALWAYS sporting that trademarked handsome smile. We look forward to your comments so don’t be shy and join the conversation after the jump… and don’t forget to congratulate Tanner too!
They kiss, suck, rim, fuck and everything in between! These men are the reason you loved porn in 2015. A couple of weeks ago we asked QC readers to throw the names of their favorite performers into the hat and the response was huge (thank you guys!). With the special help of all the QueerClick editors we have compiled an epic list – in no special order to ensure fairness – for the final voting, which by the way, starts right NOW!!!
It’s a tough decision but we know you can do it. Among these tops, bottoms, versatile guys, newcomers, seasoned porn stars and the surprising inclusion of web-cammers who come from outside the studio system, there’s a man that will rise to become QC’s Man of The Year. If we put all the cum they produced this year we could probably fill an ocean! Who was your favorite in 2015? Make the jump to vote in the poll and don’t forget to champion your favorite here in the comments and on social media!
[UPDATE: 2015-12-31] Voting is officially closed, results will be announced on the New Year. Thank you all for your participation and for campaigning for your favorites!!!
Newcomer Scott is really open to trying out new things! Instead of the usual solo video, he requested to dive straight into a fucking session! Who is better to welcome Scott to Sean Cody than handsome Tanner! Tanner gave Scott a good polish on his hot cock, before Scott plows his cock into Tanner’s warm hole. From all the moans of pleasure, Tanner utterly enjoyed this fucking session with Scott and we look forward to more from this yummy newcomer! DAYUM!
Sean Cody has taken the unprecedented step of offering a $1 trial and yearly memberships for only $10 per month.
The worldwide economic depression must be hitting porn stars pretty hard too because it seems like all the ones in our Round-Up have taken on some sort of part-time work. Brent Corrigan’s shower stripping, four famous porn stars have tried their hand at music, and we’ve discovered two other uncut hunks doing some big city escorting. Throw in some bi-polar disorder, secret boyfriends, and newcummers and you’ll agree, this is our probably our craziest porn gossip-Round Up this summer. Let’s tackle our musical men, first. If you’re a regular QC reader, you already know about Colton Ford’s over-the-top dance cover of REM’s Losing My Religion (he’s looking all angsty in raccoon makeup and a full-bdy fishnet suit). But the star recently Tweeted to let everybody know that his new album, Under the Covers came out today. You can find it on iTunes. Meanwhile, BDSM porn star Derek Da Silva announced that he’s hard at work “recording late each night trying to finish an album.”
And they’re not the only ones making sweet music between the sheets. Apparently the police-baiting porn couple, the Jarics have released a dance track called “Hit Me Up.” According to the Falcon blog, The couple were introduced to their music producers by Queen of Drag, RuPaul, who befriended the Jarics when they shot cameos for the indie film Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild! You can catch a 30 second preview of “Hit Me Up” at the Falcon blog.
That reminds us, if musical porn stars are your thing, Queerty released a great feature on musical porn stars that includes Colton Ford, Johnny Hazzard, and a few other you might not have known about. It’s not uncommon for stars to capitalize on their porn presence and moonlight as escorts, bringing the fantasy and the reality ever closer. And most porn star-slash-escrots use Rentboy.com—it’s like a Facebook for cyber-hookers. Men of Porn recently discovered two hot pieces: Rick Bauer and Kane O’Farrell.
According to Rick’s page, he kisses, is a certificate massage therapist, and is into wrestling, muscle worship and roleplay. Plus, $350 can get you a full-fledged night of “Fisting, Water Sports, Anal, S&M, Oral, Shaving, Spanking, Latex, Role Playing, PNP.” Kane O’Farrell down for all that as well, but for 150 GBP you can have your choice of either “Vanilla to kink, hard to soft, romance or just a great fuck and go.” We’re not sure how Rentboy.com stays legal seeing as it’s basically a cyber-pimp, but consensual prostitution’s a victimless crime. Porn stars gotta feed themselves, so if a gent’s starving for some company, we say, let them eat beefcake!
The idea for this interview started at 2009’s GAYVNs. I was lucky enough to sit two rows behind a very handsome, Scott Tanner. While I’ve enjoyed his porn quite a bit in the past, it was his strikingly handsome (dare I say Bond-esque, 007 good looks) in a jacket and a tie that raised my… interest. That night was magic for him as well, he and the rest of the Raging Stallion crew won a ton of awards for “To The Last Man.” And quite frankly, this movie was technically and cinematically spectacular. It also was sexy as fuck with some damned good cum-producing scenes.
I wasn’t sure how warm Scott Tanner would be to doing an interview with me. But I found him surprisingly unassuming, easy to talk to and funny as hell. Everything was great, until my account on Facebook got deleted without any warning. That’s right, I lost every bit of the conversation we’d had. Oh, the devastation!
Trust me, there is nothing more embarrassing than writing a great porn stud, and saying, “Umm, you know that interview we started…”
Amazingly, Scott Tanner shrugged it off and said, “LOL… I’m here. Let’s try again…” Okay, I’ve gotta ask the pressing rumor about you at the moment: What happened to your eye? Sister Roma is claiming she threw battery acid in your eye! Would you like to set the record straight?
Roma and I have been friends for a few years now and we have become staples in the San Francisco gay community. Sometimes it can be a fight for attention when we are together. Recently, we went to a comedy show that was headlined by one of our friends and another local gay celebrity, Ali Mafi. He put me in the beginning of his act and I think it really got to Roma and she was so angry that she didn’t get the attention she thought she deserved… so she took matters into her own hands.
Seriously though, I LOVE Roma, we were headed to see Ali Mafi perform. It was a very windy evening in San Francisco and some street trash blew into my face. Apparently a small piece of metal got lodged in my cornea. It was totally random and ridiculous. (I know!)… and Roma is actually innocent (sorta). It’s been a nightmare and very uncomfortable, but I will be well soon enough. I just have to sport this patch for a little while.
So, you’re telling me it was a sequin off of her habit? Typical. (Actually, I love Sister Roma so much too! She’s got a good heart. It’s a dirty one, but good. And that’s what makes her joking online so funny.)
So how long does the doc say you have to sport the pirate look?
I have to wear the eyepatch until at least Monday.
Didn’t you just finish shooting a new film the week before? (Phew! Talk about close timing… that would have been awful.)
Yeah. I just finished a film called, “Dirty” with Falcon/Mustang that starred myself, Ty LeBeouf, Blu Kennedy and a bunch of other guys… some of them pretty new. It’s going to be a really great movie. The location was beautiful and my scene with Blu was amazing! We had a lot of fun filming it and I can’t wait to see the end result.
Oooh. Blu. He’s so damned sexy too. The two of you paired up sounds like some red-hot porn goodness. I can’t wait!
Yes, we have known each other for years, but never really even brought up the idea of working together. We would run into each other here and there. We definitely had chemistry though and I never watch my scenes, but I am eager to see this one!
Hey, how long is a shoot typically on location. Is it a lot of waiting around in between your scenes or does time go fast?
There is A LOT of waiting. When you are shooting on location, whether it be inside or out, you have a lot of variables to deal with. Being that you are not in your home studio, you have to constantly reset lights, move locations at the last minute, due to sunlight or clouds or scheduling conflicts. And if one thing falls out of place in the schedule, then everyone scrambles to put it back together.
How do you occupy your time while waiting to film your scene? Do you take a book, an iPod or possibly cross-stitch patterns?
I talk a lot. And at this stage in the game, I know most of the models and the crew and everyone from the studios, so I tend to spend my time catching up with everyone. If not that, I work out.
I totally agree, it pays off to just catch up with everyone and be friendly, versus just being there for the job and watching the minutes tick by. So, with all of this experience in porn, what’s the craziest thing you’ve spent your porn money on?
Ummm, I don’t know! I don’t really spend my money on crazy things. I spend it like anyone would with their paycheck. My money goes toward life… and making it better for myself and the people I love.
Very practical and wise. We should all be that way.
Sitting on the couch in jeans and a tight fitting tee, Scott flashes us that bright smile that’s made us weak from day one. He begins tugging at his crotch, slowly rousing the beast within. His tee comes off, and we get our first glimpse of that sexy chest with its light dusting of hair that covers his pecs and then meets in the middle, forming a happy highway, leading straight down to where it pools at the base of his monster cock. He loses his jeans in an instant and begins working his cock, which is ready to go.
