Here is a list of 10 gay porn stars of note that were lost in 2020. It was nearly a year before anyone in the business became aware of it. Yet he passed away unnoticed in September of 2019. An obit is a real boner killer, ya know? Why jeopardize the profit margin? Additionally, performers who abandon their porn personas and return to life with their real name often pass away unnoticed by former employers and co-workers.Ĭase in point: Roman Heart was about as big a star as you will find in gay porn: 2006 Freshmen of the Year, GayVN Best Newcomer winner, Falcon cover boy with an exclusive contract and a career lasting over a decade. Porn companies also seem reluctant to broadcast the passing of a performer who is still on their roster, forever young and present in their website content.
Most gay news outlets choose to ignore the passing of all but the biggest names in the adult film industry. “I realize nobody talks about it, we are unprotected and forgotten ” Goran tweeted “We are humans, people, enough of contempt.”
In one of those instances, Goran’s tweet remains the only public notice that the performer, Dani Rivera, had been murdered. In August of this year, porn star Koldo Gorantweeted about three fellow performers who had recently died.
