When They Say They’re “Models,” They Really Mean It

All of the sudden "amateur" gay porn stars are popping in real magazines and stuff, and life is like a "Desperate Housewives" episode.

First up is Randy Blue's Chris Rockaway, who is currently gracing the cover of "Exercise for Men Only," which, come on, is like "Honcho" for closet cases with a muscle fetish. Seriously, no wonder it's for "men only"—it's full of gay porn stars! Rockaway deserves the cover, though. He obviously spends as much time carving out his perfect physique as we do whacking off while watching it, so the man has earned it.

And kudos to Sean Cody-addicted and eagle-eyed reader Joe who emailed about two Sean Cody models who are posing before cameras without erections. He found a Model Mayhem profile with photos by Paul Reitz and website for a model named Zach Garner who bears a striking resemblance to Cody's Cooper. We kind of want to make fun of him because his profile says he won't do nudes. Apparently that doesn't apply to videos.

Joining the ranks is Simon Czaplinski, who looks just like SC workhorse Harley, who has a Model Mayhem profile and landed himself on Beautiful Mag with a portfolio also by Paul Reitz. Wow, Simon looks even hotter (and hairier!) than Harley. And who is this Paul Reitz? Does Sean Cody have a secret identity for his "straight" work?

What does all this mean? Well, as the stigma around doing porn continues to decrease, we're expect we'll see even more and more of this. As long as that means we continue to see more and more flesh and even hotter guys, it's a trend we can get behind.
