It’s that time of the year again, when the entire industry waits with baited breath to see who will be nominated for the GAYVN Awards. The list is long — pretty much everyone who is anyone has been nominated for something. We have our favorites, but are interested to hear who you think should win.
The category for “Best Actor” should be a tough decision. Jason Ridge, Dean Flynn, Roman Heart, Josh Vaughn, Michael Lucas, Jake Deckard, Vinnie D’Angelo, Dean Phoenix, Erik Rhodes, and Tiger Tyson are all nominated.
For “Best Newcomer,” we see one favorite left off. On the list: Blake Riley, Christian Cruz, Dean Flynn, DO, Eddie Diaz, Jesse Santana, Josh Vaughn, Kaden Saylor, Ricardo Onca, Rick van Sant, Steve Cruz and Tommy Lima. Notably absent is RJ Danvers, who made a huge splash in 2007.
The 10th Annual GAYVN Awards Show will be held at the Giftcenter in San Francisco on Saturday, February 16, 2008.
The complete list after the jump and don’t forget to comment on who you think should win.
For six years, Adrian Cortez — better known as “Stonie” in the gay porn world — performed in more than 60 porn videos and made a brief appearance as Borat’s gay (and nude) son. Over the past year, however, Stonie has undergone a major change. See the jump for what we mean…
Porn stars Jason Ridge and Danny Vox have released a homemade video in support of Harlow Cuadra, a former escort and porn star who was arrested along with his partner Joseph Kerekes for the January 2007 murder of porn studio owner Bryan Kocis. Proceeds of the video, available at Harlow’s pay site BoyBatter.com, will go to the Harlow Cuadra Defense Fund. Cuadra and Kerekes’ assests have been seized by prosecutors, forcing the duo to raise funds for their defense.
Cuadra’s own mother has also rallied to her son’s defense, starting a Myspace page devoted to raising defense funds. A plea from Harlow’s little brother is featured on the page: David asks for help www.FreeHarlowCuadra.com
Steve Cruz sure does get around and we like it! By that we mean, not only does this Raging Stallion Man of the Year knock our socks off, we love that other muscle of his too: his heart. Why?! That’s because we are digging his new safer sex website, HowIRoll.info. It’s smart, it’s fun and wake up guys… condoms save and prolong your life. Check out Steve’s public service announcements or better yet, look for Raging Stallion’s Steve Cruz Condom (we actually like it!) for free in bars, sex clubs, and bathhouses across the country.
