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.

Should Do Porn: Carlos Ponce

We remember handsome Carlos Ponce from the late 1990s when he was being marketed as a low-rent Ricky Martin wannabe. When the sexy-Latin-singer persona didn’t work out, Ponce tackled serious acting roles (Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo) and even ended up as a cheesy correspondent for Entertainment Tonight. So, he never quite lived up to his potential—or his smoldering good looks and rockin’ bod. All the more reason: Should Do Porn!

Movie Review: Street Rulz

BY VINCENT LAMBERT

Director: Landon.
Cast: Tony, Lane, Brennan, Ty, Dalton, Turk, Others.

Young skater boys rule in Street Rulz. There are also a couple of surfer dudes, although there isn’t an ocean in sight. Instead, we get four sexy scenes featuring smooth, tattooed, pierced guys—the kind you might find cruising the streets of any California town. Cuties Tony and Lane first appear on the Los Angeles subway (must be tourists!), where they get off at Hollywood and Vine. Guess the sights don’t interest them all that much because they are soon getting off back home. They trade BJs before Lane plants his tattooed cock (ouch!) deep inside Tony. The penetration shots are first-rate in this scene, as are the cum shots. The action in the rest of the movie pretty much follows suit—hot young guys sucking and fucking. The hands-down highlight, though, is adorable Dalton and Turk, who are both especially buff and well hung. It’s revealed in the Behind the Scene extras that they are a real-life couple, which might explain their great on-screen chemistry and the fact that they appear to actually be having fun! Also having fun, the duo in the final scene who eat pizza and play video games before they do their thing. This little touch adds to the realism of their scenario. Overall, picture quality is good, and the grainy footage and colored stock used to tie the scenes together add an edgy quality befitting the newbie cast. (Boyride Films)

Seen: Colton Ford at Play

Former porn star Colton Ford was spotted on Saturday night taking in a performance of the off-Broadway musical Naked Boys Singing! The onetime star of such films as Aftershock and Gangbang Café recently relocated to New York from Los Angeles. Could there be any truth to the rumor that the still hunky stud—who was the subject of the documentary Naked Fame (with ex-lover Blake Harper) and is a fledging recording artist (Signed, Sealed, Delivered with Pepper Mashay)—is considering a role in the play? (Rehabbing porn star Spencer Quest did a Singing stint last year.) Only time will tell. We’re sure that the cast of any show, especially a relic nudie revue, would be happy to welcome a star of Ford’s magnitude—or so one would think…

Should Do Porn: Eric Close

Actor Eric Close first came to our attention when he starred in a TV series called Now and Again in 1999. It was a sort of sci-fi romantic-comedy drama that CBS canceled after one cliff-hanging season. We still wonder what happened to those characters! We do know that Close got beat up and took off his shirt a lot on the show. Then, a couple of years later, he landed on another series on CBS, this time a big hit called Without a Trace. At nearly 40, he still looks good shirtless, and even though he’s married with two kids, we can’t help but think: Should Do Porn!

Movie Review: Pillow Talk 3

BY VINCENT LAMBERT

Directors: George Duroy and Marty Stevens.
Cast: Luke Hamill, Alex Orioli, Sebastian Bonnet, Ethan Clarke, Pierre Delon, Kurt Diesel, Andre Pagnol, Matt Phillipe, Manuel Rios.

The five adorable couples in the third installment of Pillow Talk sure know how to speak the language of love. English, however, is another story! But when the models are this young, hung and appealing, who cares? Producer George Duroy (along with codirector Marty Stevens) knows how to put together a movie like almost no one else in the jizz biz. The lavish sets and locations and the sheer beauty of the guys can take your breath away. Duroy creates a world that is so perfect—not to mention hot and sexy—that viewers will want to crawl right through the screen. Kurt Diesel and Manuel Rios start the fun as a pair of shopping buddies who get serious in the sack. Matt Phillipe and Ethan Clarke also shop for sunglasses but end up sucking and fucking. Super-young newbies Andre Pagnol and Pierre Delon give a brief interview (no subtitles) then compare their big cocks before flip-flopping to great effect. Naked bartender Alex Orioli serves blondie Luke Hamill some cock and tail. But the final scene, between Sebastian Bonnet and Phillipe, is the real standout here. The handsome duo take a relaxing drive in the country in a convertible. They arrive at a lovely bucolic location where they sip champagne in an outdoor tub. The romantic atmosphere builds as they retire to an outdoor bed, where they wrestle and romp. The chemistry between the uncut cuties is palpable as they blow each other then take turns sipping bubbly out of each other’s foreskins. Yum! These two seem to have an endless supply of horniness as they move on to intense anal action (with Bonnet taking top honors) in numerous positions that are best not tried at home! The picture quality is excellent throughout (though the first scene is overly bright and tends to wash out), and the sets are alive with Bel Ami’s trademark vivid colors. Even the music has a sweet, homey ring to it. If only real life had a soundtrack—and studs—like this! (Bel Ami)
