Gay Porn Agent Takes Over The World!

One reason why we like being involved in the gay porn business so much (especially from a distance) is how charmingly old-fashioned it can be sometimes: all that talk about studios and agents and exclusive contracts reminds us of those glamorous and exciting days of old Hollywood! And we sort of felt that same twinge of excitement yesterday when we learned that superagent David Forest (who was responsible for managing such luminaries as Zeb Atlas, Mark Dalton, and Johnny Castle) had retired and sold his business to rival agency FabScout Entertainment (who manages pretty much everyone else): we imagined long negotiating sessions in smoke-filled rooms with a ceiling fan spinning slowly overhead and a secretary in a pillbox hat transcribing the proceedings in the background, even if the reality probably involved a lawyer's office in the Valley and great expanses of beige wall-to-wall carpeting. Still, it means that FabScout's talent lineup will now include just about every major porn star you've jerked off to over the past couple of years—and we can't think of anything more glamorous than that.
