YNOT – Two of StraightCollegeMen.com’s most popular models have left the softcore gay website’s fold to found their own home on the web. Max and Tucker, now known by the noms de porn Austin Andrews and Zane Michaels, have a new hardcore virtual home at AustinZane.com.
Inspired by another SCM alum, Dean Coxx, Michaels and Andrews designed and built their site themselves, and they co-own it. They also serve as talent scouts and directors for the project, which at launch offered more than 12 explicit gay videos.
Response has been positive.
“It astounds me how a project run by two straight guys gets it better than 70 percent of what’s out there,” one fan said in a review of the website.
During remarks she delivered at the 2011 Grabby Awards in Chicago over Memorial Day weekend, Chi Chi LaRue said, “Two words: Austin, Zane. I love you two. You boys are the next big thing.”
So far, despite their overnight celebrity, Andrews and Michaels remain best friends, playing to each other’s strengths and accentuating their differences. They market themselves as “straight men doing gay porn,” and they identify as straight in their daily lives. They both have girlfriends. Yet they pull no punches when it comes to performing full-on gay sex on camera.
“I’d say we’re both open minded,” Michaels said. “We’re obviously enjoying ourselves and into exploring new things. We have gay sex, but we don’t want to argue with anyone about it. If you want to call us gay, whatever; we’re cool with it.”
