Skyy Knox
Few performers make the kind of splash Skyy Knox
did in 2017. It all got started with his anticipated
debut in Scene 1 of Men.com’s The Huntsman series,
and soon he was turning heads all over the industry.
The Canadian was cast in the central role of the fallen
angel in LaRue’s smash Earthbound, and later in the
year got a role in fellow Falcon hit Route 69. He landed
another plum part as a bad guy in Hot House’s The
Fixer—which earned him a Best Supporting Actor nod,
as well as one for Best Group Scene for his spirited
gang bang at the hands of Arad Winwin, Tyler Roberts
and Austin Wolf (whom Knox thanked for introducing
him to the studio group). He is also up for Favorite
Butt in the Fan Awards.
“Is this a dream?” Knox said when he was signed
with Falcon Studios Group. “Please pinch me to
make sure it’s real.” Added Falcon Studios Group
and NakedSword Network president Tim Valenti:
“Skyy undeniably has what it takes to become one of
the next gay porn superstars, and we’re overjoyed.”
CockyBoys fans would agree based on the former
model/actor’s trio of scenes for the studio, including
his debut where he gets DPed by Brandon Jones and
Jack Hunter.

Rico Marlon
While shooting in Spain in late 2016, Lucas
Entertainment snagged a beauty: Brazilian Rico
Marlon, who made his debut in Breeding Price Charming
in an incendiary threeway with Sergeant Miles and
Ken Summers—and went on to help gang-bang Brian
Bonds in the film’s GayVN-nominated group scene.
He’s had a prolific 2017 with nine films, most as a top,
and also picked up a Best Duo Sex Scene nod for his
pairing with Dani Robles in Bareback Auditions 6 (to go
along with his Hottest Newcomer nomination in the
Fan Awards).
“I signed because Lucas Entertainment is an
excellent company, the guys are incredibly hot, and
they take care of their models,” he said, adding that
he appreciated the time Lucas Entertainment and his
co-stars spent helping him to learn how the industry
works. “There’s excellent care with all new models;
the team welcomed me and helped me out very
much.” The studio notes that he loves having sex by
the ocean, and fantasizes about having an orgy on a
secluded beach with a group of versatile guys in case
he gets the itch to flip. “I can’t wait to show what
I can do for the fans and hopefully be a successful
model.”
William Seed
From the moment he’s caught jacking off in his
porn debut in Men.com’s “Closet Peepers,” Canadian
William Seed—a French-speaking native of Quebec—
made fans across the globe salivate. The tattooed
construction worker is stacked at 5-foot-9 and 195
pounds, helping him garner a Fan Award nom for
Favorite Body (is it any surprise his favorite film is
Rambo? Sly would be proud!). He has made a splash in
scene after scene on Men.com, including memorable
threeways and group scenes with the likes of Alexy
Tyler, Will Braun and Zack Hunter. He counts hockey
among his hobbies (you can take the man out of
Canada …), professes to being a very good cook and
loves gang bangs.
In an interview with QueerMeNow.net, Seed shares:
“I was contacted by a recruiter that was looking for
models in Montreal. I sent in my pictures they met
with me and liked what they saw and tried me out for
a scene which ended up being ‘Closet Peepers’... I was
a little bit shy but that quickly changed to excitement
at which point it was easy and fun.” (And while he
hasn’t bottomed yet, he’s not completely ruling it out
… so stay tuned!)
Daymin Voss
While traveling the country with boyfriend Julian Knowles,
Daymin Voss met superstar Jason Vario—who helped the dancer
get a gig at Titan (along with the recommendations of fellow Titan
stalwarts Jesse Jackman and Dirk Caber). And what a gig it was:
Vario hadn’t bottomed on camera since 2014, then along came Voss
to re-pop his cherry in Big Brother. It was part of a stellar 2017 that
saw the muscle man make an impact in a handful of films. The
versatile, hairy Voss also got to shoot a scene with returning vet
Tristan Jaxx in Raging Stallion’s Gun Show, along with his work in
Gaymers (where he’s nominated with Eddy CeeTee for Best Bear
Scene) and Beards, Bulges, and Ballsacks! (again tapped for Best Bear
Scene, along with Michael Roman and Fernando Del Rio). Voss adds
to that a Fan Award nom for Favorite Bear.
In an interview with Ryan Shea of Instinct magazine, Voss shared:
“I have been blown away by many of the guys that I’ve met. Not just
the personalities, but also the successfulness of the guys behind the
scenes. I’ve met business owners, guys who hold multiple degrees,
and hopefully I can count myself in as some of the people who
are successful in their private ventures. To my own standards, of
course.”
