June 21, 2024

Fleshbot is always thrilled to catch up with one of the Gay Porn industry's true legends, the one and only Bruce Beckham. Now entering his 20th year in the industry (and looking hotter than ever!) Bruce has now fully embraced his new persona as one of the industry's great muscle daddies. He joined us for an update on how he's been, how he has continued to maintain his success over the years, and how he plans to make this latest phase of his career the hottest and most prolific yet.

So what is the latest with the legendary Bruce Beckham? How is 2024 treating you?

This year has already been a blast and really rewarding. Returning to the adult industry full-time has brought a new set of experiences like relaunching my OnlyFans profile with some really HOT, beautifully shot content, and filming for top-tier studios like Men.com

I'm lining up collaborations with some of today's hottest models, and I can't wait.

You were just inducted into the Wall of Fame at the Grabby Awards last month. What was that honor like?

It really felt like a full-circle moment. I can remember being disappointed my first year in the industry for not being nominated as best newcomer. To look back on all the wonderful people and companies I've had the privilege of working with, and to be recognized for my staying power and unique presence in the industry felt really gratifying.

Entering your 20th year in the adult entertainment industry, what do you hope to achieve in this new phase of your career? Any concerns?

I'm really enjoying this stage in my career. There are so many new models and opportunities. I'd love to film more iconic studio content, given my longevity and demand, maybe even finally be an exclusive for a studio.

What has been the secret(s) to your longevity?

Definitely some of the breaks I've taken have helped. I've stepped away at various points to focus on other life goals and projects, but never announced any sort of retirement because I knew I wasn't through with the adult industry altogether. Then, when I had something new or different to contribute to the fans, I resurfaced. It's been interesting each time to talk to new models and hear their strategies and experiences.

When we last spoke you shared that you were planning to put your porn work on the back burner and instead focus on your other business endeavors. Has your porn work come back to the forefront? What changed?

I started a few entrepreneurial businesses and endeavors like personal training and life coaching, but I kept getting feedback that the market was hungry for what they came to know me for, striking Hollywood looks and presence, and formidable sexual energy and charisma.

I use a metaphor that Mcdonald's tried selling pizza for a while until they realized everyone just wants them to make great hamburgers.

So, I'm going to keep selling "great hamburgers" as well. I love my fans and I want to give them what they love from me.

How is the Bruce Beckham of 2024 different from the Bruce Beckham of 2005 when you first started? What has remained the same?

The industry has changed so much around me, there are so many opportunities for models that didn't exist when I started, but I'd say at my core I'm still the same guy, just older and wiser. I do prioritize my mental health/quiet time more now, and I am more intentional about the legacy I'd like to leave behind.

What are some of the major changes you've viewed in the industry? Both good and not so good?

I'm probably not as informed as others, but you'd be blind to not see how fan sites and social media have changed how models are publicized and how they can earn. Studios are working harder than ever to cement their rightful footing as the Vanguards of the industry, in an environment where the earning potential has been put in the hands of the models, to a degree.

What do you hope lies ahead for you in 2024 and beyond?

I hope to connect with new fans and reconnect with longtime ones. I hope to film and share some great provocative sex with some hot newcomers and established icons. I hope to launch into new porn adjacent opportunities like mainstream acting opportunities. Mostly, I hope to keep having experiences (sexual and otherwise) that enrich my life and my fans.
