News: Roman Ragazzi Quits Job in Porn Exposé
BY VINCENT LAMBERT
Raging Stallion exclusive Roman Ragazzi made headlines today for quitting his real-life, nonporn job as an Israeli consulate official. The New York Post’s Page Six discovered Ragazzi’s career as an up-and-coming porn star and confronted him on his involvement in the gay-porn industry. Ragazzi, who worked in the administrative offices of the Israeli consulate while also filming scenes for Raging Stallion, was approached via e-mail by someone who was allegedly interested in hiring him for porn work. The New York Post gained access to these e-mails and used them to expose Ragazzi’s dual careers. The newspaper also published his real name.
When contacted by Page Six on Monday, Ragazzi had said, “I don’t know [Roman Ragazzi]. I will call you back.” Soon after, he left the consulate and gave his resignation. David Sarenga, the consulate’s press rep, said, “[Ragazzi] worked in the administrative offices for over a year before leaving our employ earlier this week. He was a local hire.” Sarenga declined to go into the consulate’s background-search policy.
It was only two months ago that model/director Collin O’Neal and Chris Ward, president of Raging Stallion Studios, announced that newcomer Ragazzi would be the first in a series of exclusive models to be shared by their two production companies. Ragazzi was discovered by O’Neal as part of an ongoing worldwide talent search.
At the time, Ragazzi, who is a hairy bodybuilder type, commented, “I have always wanted to do [porn]. I have been working on my body for many years. I enjoy male beauty, and I want to share myself with other men around the world."
His first movie was scheduled for release this month.
