HOOK: E-zine By, For, and About Men in the Sex Industry

HOOK: A lot of bisexuals, particularly bisexual men such as yourself, encounter disrespect (for lack of a better word) by both the gay community and straight society. Have you had any such experiences?

Michael Brandon: I haven't received much disrespect in the community at all pertaining to any of my sexual orientation. Putting it out there that I am BI sexual opens UP a whole market for me.

HOOK: Considering you are a prominent figure in gay porn culture, how has it been to meet or even date women?

MB: I don't date women. My bisexuality is only stated because I was married at one time. I don't have a problem fucking women. Much more attracted to a man though. The term that would fit better would be...."straight for pay."

HOOK: Now lets talk about how you got to the top of the gay porn world and the acclaim in the escorting industry. Which came first for you, porn or escorting? What do you attribute as the reason(s) for your success in both?

MB: I have been involved in the porn industry since pre-condom days, back in the late 80's. I went M.I.A. due to finding drugs early in my coming out of the closet. I made them my life, love, confidant, worst enemy, cuddle buddy and God! Coming back into the industry through my, then agent Johnny Johnston, I made a flick and he suggested I get in to the escorting. Showed me how to get in to an AOL chat room. The rest is becoming history. I am a very hard worker. Driven to the point of obsession at times. Just as I lived the drug culture. I am now living the industry. Treating folks as I like being treated has been the secret to my success. I have worked my ass off to get where I am today! I love every aspect of my life right now. So fuckin’ beautiful compared to what I was living about three years and a few months ago! Prisons, homeless and just plain scared!

HOOK: As a porn star escort, what do you think clients assume most about you since they may likely have seen your work before?

MB: The thing I hear the most is how genuinely nice I am. My movie persona is aggressive, to the point of brutality at times. In real life I portray nothing of that image; unless, of course, you stick that ass in the air. The nasty side of me comes out!

HOOK: Has anyone ever asked to video tape you having sex with him?

MB: I get that request often. They love to have something on tape for those rainy nights!

HOOK: I assumed a male client, which leads me to ask, do you or have you had any female clients?

MB: I don't have any female clients. I had one approach me about providing Monster's
sweet nectar so that she could have a child. No strings attached she said. I could dump my load and walk. She would take care of the child. Hmmm....let me think about that for a moment...."NOT!"

HOOK: You're quite famous for your ‘Monster,’ in fact you named your production company after it, correct?

MB: Yes, marketing my cock as Monster as his own personality (because at times he does) was the idea behind that. Actually, reading reviews from clients on Hoo Boy's Male4malescorts.com had me realizing that there was much more to me that just a big cock. Having a large cock is a power in the industry and community as a whole. I had attached my identity to my cock. Relying on him. Reading the reviews showed me over and over again through the words of others that I was much more! Hence, the birth of Monster! The name of my video line came from the first title of the movie I was planning. Monster Bang was going to be the title. I liked it so much. I named the line that!

HOOK: So why did you start Monster Bang?

MB: I started Monster Bang Video because I wanted to start cashing in on my own self. Investing in Raging Stallion and myself. I loved the industry and realized through the reviews and awards I have received that I had a talent. Capitalizing on it while the getting was good!

HOOK: How do you see yourself in the porn industry in the long-term?

MB: I would love to be a part of the industry for many, many years to come. I can't call what is going to happen tomorrow though. Lord knows, I would have laughed in your face had you told me a year ago I would have accomplished what I have. I am giving it my all. As I do most things in life.

HOOK: Just to ask, when you were growing up, what did you want to be?

MB: I wanted to work in public relations. Took a while to get there. I am here. As you know I appear all over the US, promoting myself and my video line, promoting Raging Stallion at the same time. Exclusive model, producer and partner with the company! I love it! I love them!

HOOK: Now for some fun! Fill in the blanks: ______ are sexy, ______ is sexier. And tell us why.

MB: Smiles are sexy, eyes are sexier. No real reason why. Just what I like to look at!

HOOK: Kissing or getting rimmed?

MB: Both! Oh yeah! One leads to the next!

HOOK: Dark meat, white meat or no meat?

HOOK: Birthday or Christmas?

MB: Christmas. Love the energy!

HOOK: Any guilty pleasures, food-wise that is?

HOOK: And finally, any tips or words of advice for those who want break in the porn industry or start their own company?

MB: The sex industry can be made to be very profitable. Treat it as a job. Work hard at it. Be consistent and as honest as possible given the situations. It will all come together like butt cheeks! I am here to help out if you have questions. If I don't know the answer, which is very likely, I am not the know of all whoredom, I will find out for you! I shoot straight from the hip though. Don't ask the question if you are afraid to hear the answer! Take care and for goodness sakes...Be good to yourselves!
