Derek Cameron in "Gay Porn Heroes"

Writes Brent Blue in his review of "Gay Porn Heroes" (Bruno Gmuender): "Derek Cameron. For me, Derek Cameron has been and always will be my idea of the perfect porn star. Few men in gay porn have ever been as drop-dead gorgeous as Derek Cameron, as bodies, dicks and asses are far more valuable than faces. I had the opportunity to meet him once, and just couldn't go up to him (he was still working in porn at the time and it was a porn event, so it wasn't as if I were interrupting dinner). I was scared of the man I considered a porn god and knew I would go idiotically speechless if I met him. I've met bigger stars in and out of porn without the feeling, and damn how I regret not even shaking his hand and stammering an "I love your work." Sparkling eyes, a body that needed nothing, a great dick (if underused) and, of course, that ass, perhaps the greatest of the 1990s." (© mannet.com)

Couldn't have said it better myself. Back in 1997 I fought for Derek with MenofOdyssey, who wanted Ken Ryker to star in "Journey to Italy" instead. I followed my heart (my guts?), MenofOdyssey caved in. Fast-forward to the Awards night: Derek and I at the table with Ryan Idol. But my eyes were all for Derek --who picked up his very first trophy for "Tradewinds"
