The 2011 Cybersocket Awards! It’s such a mistake to sit and wait for some profound observation to present itself to you after an evening like The Cybersocket Awards. For me, anyway, the evening went off without a hitch. There was no show stopping drama. No one attacked me or even spilled their drink on me! The limo showed up on time and it was a true pleasure having two of my models from Working Hard joining me for the ride over to the event. I hadn’t seen Andy Banks in a year or more. When I realized I had best find myself a date to join me for the evening Andy just seemed like the obvious candidate. He’s such a sweetheart and he seems so at ease with his surroundings – even at a porn award show.  And he kisses my ass better than any one else who has ever worked for me. What award winning bottom doesn’t love a good ass kissin’? :-P

I normally don’t put much thought into preparation for something like this.  The reality of it is, no matter how big these things get or how crazy one might percieve them to turn out it’s always more about seeing one another than the pagentry or show. Now, I haven’t been a part of the adult industry all that long, and I certainly haven’t made a point to attend each and every one of these things since my introduction, but I’ve always been given the distinct impression that there isn’t much more to it than that. What makes Cybersocket different is the surfer’s choice aspect of the voting system. As a contributor to the industry on a producer/model/personality level, and a voter, I realize how much trust we are putting in Cybersocket to honestly arrive at the award outcome.  The other award shows predominantly operate on a “What you get is what we decide to give you” platform, which creates a general acceptance to swing with the tide.

I’ve always chosen to separate myself from the debauchery and craziness that is known to be an ever-present component to events thrown by the gay porn industry. I’m so good at this that I’m practically blind to it when it’s happening right around me.  There are times, in the days after an award show, I’ll be hearing about something that happened or something some star did and the first thought that pops into my head is, “When did THAT happen and where was I?” I don’t give blow jobs back stage, I don’t get rimmed on stage, and I try to keep most of my clothes on when I’m in public. Kind of boring of me, huh? Although, I have been tempted to flash my ass when accepting an award but always thought better of it. As great as it is to be recognized for hard work, it certainly isn’t working arriving in a limo but leaving in a squad car. Maybe I’m being dramatic, but sometimes, all it takes it a little crack to illicit some unwanted attention. Besides, a bare ass at a gay porn event isn’t exactly a novel idea, if you know what I mean!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: It’s just so great to get in a club, or a theatre house, or even a dive bar with dozens or hundreds of like minded people working in the same field.  I’m not saying we are better than any one else, but working, fucking, living and breathing the gay porn industry can be an awfully lonely place for someone who does it alone. We’re just no appropriate for most of every day life. Many of us, certainly myself included, spend the vast majority of our day to day lives pretending to be someone else just so we can harness these brief moments of fame, release or accolades. The point I’m making is, even the gay community has it’s qualms with what it is we do as individuals. Get in a room with 500 other people who do what you do and it’s not like you’re The Last Unicorn anymore. 

Please don’t misunderstand my point here. I’m not lodging a complaint – merely making aware that everyone has their hitching points, their heartaches – even sexy porn stars like Landon Mycles:

I ended up with a bevvy of random images from the night. In place of trying to narrate everything, I’ll leave you to your own conclusions.  Here they are!

David Townsend, star of Jett Black’s new mainstream horror feature Bite Marks! He also appears in Brent Corrigan’s HEAT, available to my VIP member’s. GET YOUR MEMBERSHIP HERE.

Obviously, self explanatory:

Rupaul’s Drag Race Season 2 Contestant Morgan McMichael’s. One of the nicest, sweetest, sexiest people in a dress!

Porn Star Shane Frost, world renowned DJ Joe Gauthreaux (we did an event together way back when!), and me.

The boys and me with Donny Wright (on the right!). The treasure in the middle is up and coming star Davina Love.

I ALMOST FORGOT! I took home Best New Site for www.TheNewBrentCorrigan.com! Actually, I didn’t forget. I just wanted to be strategic about mentioning it! This is the second time, second website, I’ve been awarded a “Best Site” accolade. In 2008 I was voted “Best Porn Star Blog” for my work at BCi. It was such a thrill knowing I could not only TOP my original award of just “Best Blog” and turn it into an overall Best New Website – particularly because I developed this project on my own with the help of Mark Wilson, my developer. No partners this time around! Thank you to Cybersocket for presenting me with this award and THANK YOU ALL OF YOU for recognizing my hard work from 2010! (Here I am taking great oral pleasure in my victory)

Yummy Peter Le, Winner of the 2011 Best Asian Themed Site. Impossibly sexy, I KNOW, right?!

Long time friends & forever favorites Brent Everett and partner Steve Pena. Always a pleasure reliving some of our more fond memories together:

I was so excited about the new photos we did today I just had to post one! Photographer Anthony Duran and I shot 3 whole sets in a few short hours to celebrate the departure of my flat in San Diego. I found a new place this past weekend! I hope to have this set added to the VIP section in the coming few short days as well as a new scene.

Your Friend & Lover,
