“I feel like this year has flown by.
It’s been kind of crazy how busy
I’ve been.”
The humor of it all isn’t lost on DeAngelo Jackson: For a man so accustomed to having sex on
camera, he found himself nervous when he had to … memorize dialogue?!
“I recall telling Chi Chi LaRue, ‘I have never had this much dialogue!’” he laughs of his experience
filming Icon Male’s Blended Family. “I was a nervous wreck. It was like a movie, essentially. I
read the script, and I was thankfully paired with some really great actors. I was just completely
new as an actor, but the experience was just so phenomenal. There was so much love, and you
know what? I really enjoyed it after I calmed down and got my nerves out of the way. I can see
myself trying to eventually move to some mainstream acting after taking some classes. Blended
Family put a little bug in my ear.”
That performance earned Jackson a Best Actor nod, highlighting a year in which he signed as
an exclusive with Noir Male.
“I feel like this year has flown by. It’s been kind of crazy how busy I’ve been. The experience
with Noir Male has been amazing. It’s hard work, but I love it. The experience with Chi Chi LaRue
and the cast and crew, it’s just been phenomenal. Being in the game for 12 years, it wasn’t until
late 2018 and going into 2019 that I was like, ‘Wow, this is totally different.’ I’ve really enjoyed it.”
Jackson also got to film with Men.com and GuysinSweatpants last year, and started 2020 with
his first solo calendar. Portions of the proceeds will go to an organization dedicated to assisting
in the growth, development and empowerment of LGBTQA+ and their supporters.
“My fans can enjoy me all throughout next year. I’ve been a part of a few before, but I was just
one month … now I’m every month,” he laughs. “It was a lot of fun to put together.”
