Muscle-bound Erik Rhodes (born February 8, 1982) in Long Island is bringing a New York flavor to the man-on-man media world, usually overrun by West Coast blond twinks.
The 26-year-old Adonis is at the top of his field as an exclusive model for Falcon Studios, and performs as both top and bottom.
On the road to superstardom, Rhodes, whose early run-ins with the gay scene did not leave the best taste in his mouth,
made some sexy stops along the way, including Fantasy, a now-defunct strip club in Long Island.
"I was dancing there. I never knew there were hot gay guys.
So I started hooking up with all the dancers."
A recruiter from Falcon spotted him at a nightclub and asked him to send in photos.
"I thought", Rhodes admits, "Why not get paid to fuck hot guys?"
He took the plunge -- literally - with his first movie, Flesh, which featured him in an underwater scene.
Having made eleven more movies since, Rhodes is proving his dominance in the field by the launch of his new anatomically
correct sex toy and an own live webcast from his New York apartment.
"I sit there, and they tell me what they want me to do. I'll basically do anything they say", Rhodes says.
The web makes it easy to shoot adult content far from the sun-drenched shores of California.
"I find L.A. pretentious," he remarks. "I can only stand it for short spurts. I need city life."
He has already taken part to several live shows since 2005, but now he is the star of a biweekly show.
Erik Rhodes is not only known as the wild man of the industry, but at zero for seven in the awards department.
Ge is the Susan Lucci of gay porn. With such nominations as best newcomer, best actor, best duo and best versatile, to name a few,
this beefy boy from Long Island is well on his way to uber-star status with a fan base and popularity that rivals no other.
Rhodes is only the second porn star to perform in the top role with noted top-man Matthew Rush as the bottom in the film,
Heaven to Hell, and again in Cross Country where they flip flop with gusto.
They also made live events for Falcon together.
In an interview ÊRhodes said: "Fucking Matthew was really hard work!
That guy has horse legs, so it was a workout fucking him on his back.
Also I'd have to say that when it was my turn to get fucked I didn't want it to stop.
I kinda enjoyed it a little too much. I was extremely attracted to him, and he's totally my type of guy,
so I couldn't wait to get fucked by him. On the set there was definitely a mutual attraction.
If you watch our scene I think it will show just how much fun we were having."
