The Best In The Business: Our Favorite Pornstar Tops

The gay pornstar must be the master of a number of different skill sets—topping, bottoming, cock sucking and more. Here are some of our favorite tops in the industry today, and why they're so good at what they do.

Bo Dean: This pint-sized pornstar has an ass that's as hard as granite and tighter than anything in Kim Kardashian's wardrobe, but you won't hear too many clamoring to get a taste of it. That's because the gay-for-pay pro has made his name as one of porn's great total tops with a series of jackhammer performances for Cocksure Men. Having watched a number of his scenes, it's obvious Dean's greatest asset comes from his unparalleled athleticism. If one look at his incredibly ripped, body-fat-free physique isn't enough to convince you that he's in great shape, then check out any of his energetic performances. This guy fucks like a bunny all hopped up on caffeine and amphetamines. Having sex like this in real life will probably leave you with one sore and pissed off partner, but on camera it's exactly what we want to see.

Samuel O'Toole: You don't have to have a massive, succulent, oddly photogenic cock like Samuel O'Toole's to be a good top. If anything, those genetically blessed tops out there with huge, beautiful cocks are often at a distinct disadvantage. Making hot hardcore action is difficult when your scene partner spends half the movie adjusting to your size, and the other half insisting that you slow down. That's why Samuel O'Toole is so good at what he does. He may be a muscle-bound hotty with a huge wiener, but he's also amazingly charming and affable—the sort of porn performer who has instant chemistry with just about anybody he works with.

Diesel Washington: When it comes to being a good top, creativity is key. Sure, Diesel Washington may not necessarily be the most eloquent wordsmith or the most promising film director we've ever encountered, but the man is 100% crazy and that translates into fun, high-energy scenes that are never boring. Never one to settle for the staid variations of the missionary-cowgirl-doggy style positions that dominate most current hardcore gay films, Diesel has even gone so far as to make a series of YouTube videos showing off his crazy sex-position creations. Doesn't everyone want a guy who can toss them around like a rag doll? This is a man who will definitely keep you guessing in the bedroom—if he doesn't accidentally tear you in half first.

Arpad Miklos: Papa Arpad, how we love you! The average gay pornstar making his name as an exclusive top will probably find himself surrounded on all sides by studios, fans, and bitchy bloggers demanding to see them take it up the ass. Not European muscle stud and living porn legend Arpad Miklos, though. In over 15 years of porn performance, Arpad has become a veritable topping institution. And it's not like he's not gay enough or holding out for some ridiculously huge paycheck or just too much of a wuss to get fucked. It's just that Arpad Miklos was born, nay, genetically engineered to fuck beautiful gay boys into blissful submission. Watch him do it at any point in his distinguished career and you'll be convinced that this is a man who's found his true calling.

James Jamesson: And then there's James Jamesson, the pretty much physically perfect redhead who's sex appeal is truly greater than infinity. In many ways Jamesson combines all of the best qualities of our favorite pornstar tops-he's easily as athletic as Bo Dean, as creative as Diesel Washington, and as naturally and effortlessly dominant as Arpad Miklos. But it's with Samuel O'Toole that the comparison gets really interesting. Their recent Next Door Buddies scene, in which Jamesson and O'Toole top hotties Paul Wagner and Tyler Ford side by side, highlighted their different approaches. Samuel O'Toole is the relatively tender, friendly sex partner that you want to roll around in bed with and to whom you make sweet, sweet love. James Jamesson, on the other hand, is the cocky sex god who shows up at your place unannounced and fucks the shit out of you, buttoning his pants and heading for the door while you're still in the throes of orgasm. Sure, Samuel O'Toole might make for a better boyfriend, but when it comes to pure, fantasy entertainment, James Jamesson wins every time.
