Why Do So Many People Hate Brent Corrigan?

As you, Dear Constant Reader, know I'm a Brent Corrigan fan. Not just for his gorgeous body, but also for his entertaining blog plus I'm eagerly awaiting Another Gay Sequel (which I'll buy once I've got myself a new job).

So I'm constantly amazed at how much bitterness and hatred this one boy can generate. Just take a read of the comments on this new gallery and on this interview over at Queerty. Ouch! Has a larger group of unhappy, moany old queens ever been gathered in one place before now? I think not, it's a new record! This sort of thing is the reason I don't read the mass market gay blogs, and I'm quite happy reading and commenting on all the less bitchy better quality personal gay blogs out there.

Brent Corrigan is a self promoter, he does need to earn a living! It seems stupid to make out that self promotion is evil when pretty much every blogger out there is doing the same thing and surely just by commenting on a blog is an attempt to promote your own point of view? They accuse him of exploiting his looks to get ahead. Erm.. guys I hate to break it to you but that's what got him this far, he has a porn background after all and if you've got it (and boy he's got it!) why not use it! And finally they have a go at him for being a porn star when he is currently in the process of mixing things up a little bit and trying to break into more mainstream acting. Give the boy a break!

I just hope that after the last few years he has grown a thick enough skin to let the insults roll off.
