Page 12 - AVN Men 2019

PUBLISHER’S
NOTE
Last January marked the resurgence of the GayVN Awards,
returning to Vegas on January 21. This year brings another big
debut: the launch of AVN Men. Like AVN magazine, which was
redesigned in 2018, the new publication provides fans of gay adult
entertainment with a visually exciting showcase for top performers.
Cover star Carter Dane talks about the twists and turns of life that
led him to join Cockyboys. Euro hunk Helmut Huxley dishes on
what it’s like to be a BelAmi star in a rare Q&A. And Helix Studios
founder Keith Miller—who is being inducted into the GayVN Hall
of Fame—attributes his brand’s success to the performers behind
it, noting that porn stars have become mainstream celebrities who
rule over social media empires that would have been unimaginable
back when he started the studio. It’s all part of the evolution of
lifestyle porn, emerging from the shadows to take its place in pop
culture. And AVN Men plans to do its part to shed plenty of light.
