Bruce Cam Refuses DAVID Lifetime Achievement Award
San Francisco, CA (October 23, 2007) – Titan Media regrets to announce that GAYVN Hall of Fame Director Bruce Cam has refused to accept the DAVID Lifetime Achievement Award. Sponsored by GAYeLINE, a gay adult magazine publisher in Europe, the DAVID Awards were initially considered to be the European equivalent of the GAYVN Awards in the United States. The awards show was held in Berlin on Friday October 19th, 2007. Due to a last minute illness, Cam was not able to attend the award ceremony, but his business partner and Titan Media Vice President Keith Webb was in attendance on his behalf. “I cannot in good conscience accept a Lifetime Achievement award from an organization that glorifies and promotes bareback content alongside my own,” says Bruce Cam, President and CEO of Titan Media. “I have worked my entire adult industry career to promote and eroticize safer sex content in all of my films. It would be against every single fiber of my moral being to accept this award. Silence is acceptance and I can no longer sit by and watch the industry where I have worked and helped shape be destroyed by others seeking financial gain at the expense of performers and the entire gay community. I cannot and will not accept this award as it is tainted with the blood of others." In 2006, TitanMen won the DAVID Award for “Best American Studio”. In addition, TitanMen exclusive models François Sagat and Spencer Quest were awarded ‘Best European Actor’ and ‘Best Non-European Actor’ respectively. 2006 was the first year the awards were held, and at that time bareback films were excluded from consideration, citing the same standards as the GAYVN awards. It appears that this year’s list of nominees were kept from Titan Media and other nominated studios in an apparent attempt to conceal the amount of bareback films and studios being nominated. Had Titan Media been informed of the fact that the vast majority of the nominees were bareback we would not have supported or attended the event. “I was really disappointed that the DAVID Awards seem to have taken the focus off good film making and quality movies in many of the categories and turned to honoring and promoting all things bareback”, said multi-award winning director Chi Chi LaRue. “We received an award of "Best Actor Europe", which was totally unfair,” says Thomas Virsov and Ulrich Jung, CEO and Producer of XXX-Project Germany. ”We got the award because we paid to sponsor the show, and other awards were given to companies which paid for adverts in the GAYeLINE magazine. We tried to communicate this while we were at the stage, but they took away our microphone. We gave back our award and didn't take it. We are more than happy that also Titan refused to accept their award.” “We were truly shocked and appalled by the overwhelming amount of low end and poorly produced bareback films being honored at the awards,” says Keith Webb, Vice-President of Titan Media. “When it became known to the producers of the awards show that I was going to refuse the award on Bruce’s behalf, the award was pulled and I was refused access to the stage. They did not even have the decency to allow me onstage to voice our opinions and to politely refuse to accept the award on Bruce’s behalf. In my opinion the entire event was a set-up meant to showcase and promote bareback films, and was the most biased and poorly produced awards show I have ever attended. The event was an embarrassment to the entire gay adult industry and I am sad to say we were even represented at the awards show."

Titan Media Re-Signs Exclusive Models Baresi, Crosse, Sagat and Washington
(San Francisco, February 21st, 2007) Titan Media, parent company of gay adult brands TitanMen, TitanMen Fresh, MSR Video and ManPlay, is pleased to announce that it has extended the exclusivity contracts with its signature stars Alex Baresi, Damien Crosse, François Sagat and Diesel Washington. All four TitanMen exclusive models have extended their contracts with Titan Media through 2008. “We are all very proud that Alex, Damien, François and Diesel have chosen to extend their exclusivity contract with us here at TitanMen,” says Keith Webb, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Titan Media. “These four men represent some of the most iconic faces and bodies of the TitanMen brand and we are looking forward to an exciting year ahead with them all.” Alex Baresi made his TitanMen debut in the leather/fetish blockbuster Folsom Filth in fall 2006. The ruggedly handsome and hirsute 27–year old Italian stands 6’1” and weighs in at a beefy 230 lbs. Baresi followed Folsom Filth with the Bruce Cam holiday epic Breathless and will next be seen in another leather/fetish film set to release at the International Mr. Leather convention in May. Baresi is the featured model, along with Damien Crosse, on the cover of the February 2007 issue of GAYVN magazine. Damien Crosse has quickly grown to become one of the most loved and recognized faces in the gay adult industry. His smoldering good looks and beautifully muscular body have captured the hearts of fans, both male and female! Damien made his TitanMen debut in the Brian Mills films Hitch and Folsom Filth, Bruce Cam’s Breathless and Joe Gage’s Cop Shack on 101. Crosse is nominated for “Best Newcomer” at the 2007 GAYVN awards to be held this week in San Francisco. Arguably the world’s most recognizable gay pornstar, François Sagat has become a gay porn icon and superstar. The French native is most noted for his signature full scalp tattoo and one of the most stunning physiques in the industry. His exotic Arab and Eastern European heritage combine to create one of the world’s most beautiful men. Sagat is nominated for “Performer of the Year” at the 2007 GAYVN awards for his work in Folsom Filth and Breathless. Diesel Washington burst onto the scene in fall 2006 with his break-out performance in the leather/fetish block buster Folsom Filth. The 6’6”, 240 lb. Brooklyn native with a take-no-prisoners attitude has quickly developed a huge fan base. Diesel can currently be seen in (and on the cover of) Joe Gage’s Crossing the Line: Cop Shack 2. His aggressive fucking style along with a 10” dick are the things of which porn legends are made! Diesel is nominated for “Best Newcomer” at the 2007 GAYVN awards to be held this week in San Francisco.

Breathless is Bruce Cam's return to directing the outdoor features that made TitanMen famous - handsome masculine studs having no-holds barred sex in the most beautiful outdoor settings in the world! The lush forests of the Czech Republic provide the perfect backdrop for the sexiest group of guys that TitanMen has ever brought together. Guns cocked and loaded, hairy-chested hunk Ted Colunga and tattooed Julian Vincenzo single-mindedly track down and capture TitanMen exclusive François Sagat, who's fleeing for his life through the forest. They force François to suck down their massive uncut cocks, plug his perfectly smooth and muscled ass with their meaty foreskinned dicks, and rain showers of pooling piss over his captive body. François makes a daring escape into the woods, and while on the run, he stumbled on ruggedly handsome Miguel Sabroso and massively muscled Glenn Santoro, rimming and fucking chiseled, dark-haired Carlos. TitanMen exclusive Damien Crosse sprays his load on Pierre Sias's face before mercilessly hammering both Pierre and brawny Benjamin Stark, with Damien unleashing a torrent of piss in Benjamin's open mouth. And in the final incendiary scene, François encounters TitanMen exclusive Alex Baresi and ripped Dom Camillo having sex by a campfire, and as night falls in the forest, joins the two men in a searing round of cock and assplay that continues the next morning. Breathless - so much non-stop heated action, it'll leave you gasping for air!
