Man Candy Day: X-Rated Pretty Men

Last week I posted the Boys of Bel Ami, and among them there was Lukas Ridgeston. Lukas is too beautiful a man to not being worthy of a post of his own, and to give him company I chosed other three "adult" male star: Tom Wolfe and Chad Manning, couple on the screen and in real life, and Xander Scott, well, since I love that naughty pic ;-)

Lukas Ridgeston (April 5, 1974) is a Slovakian actor in gay erotic movies and model in Bel Ami gay erotic magazines and books. He was born in Bratislava, then part of the former Czechoslovakia, now capital of Slovakia. In 2005 he made his final appearance as an actor but he is still very much involved with Bel Ami as a cameraman, editor and director of Internet episodes.



















His stage name originated with the editors of Freshmen magazine. (It is common practice for magazines to assign names to photos of models, rather than the studios or the models themselves.) The magazine didn't want to use a name from an Eastern Bloc country and chose the name "Lucas Ridgeston" as sounding more "Ivy League". BelAmi changed the spelling to "Lukas" as it is the correct Czech and Slovakian spelling and both have been used ever since. Ridgeston received a university degree in architecture in June 1999. One of Ridgeston's other interests is in Mini Coopers. An owner of a Mini, he is a member of an organization of Mini Cooper owners. A race was held at one of the meetings of the organization, which he won.

Among the characteristics for which he is known are startling blue eyes, which have been described as "wolf-like". His last films as a performer were Lukas in Love and The Private Life of Tim Hamilton but he continues to work for BelAmi as a director, cameraman, and editor.

When asked, "Do you identify as gay, straight or bi-sexual?", he replied, "I always say I am sexual".

Tom Wolfe is 26 years old and Chad Manning 33 years old. Tom says of himself: “The All American farm boy, I grew up in the rural Midwest on a small family owned farm comprised of approximately 1,000 acres. We ran cattle and horses and harvested hay crops. I am a simple country boy, no more no less!”

Chad and Tom work together for Massive Studios and Titan Studio and they are a real life couple. They are also favorite models of Dan Skinner (http://danthedanimal.deviantart.com/) who is developing a whole series of erotica romance covers with the two of them.

Xander Scott is a 24 years old Californian guy working for Randy Blue. No more info about him and so, I decided to post a bonus picture of Malachi Marx, one of his partners on the screen.

I've always admired Lukas. And I really like the idea of Tom and Chad - it must be great, being able to work on erotic art/movies with your real life lover :).

Tom and Chad are do appealing, especially knowing they're a couple in RL.

This was an extra special treat overall! Fabulous man candy. :D

Oh yay! This is my favorite MCD post. I love smiling models. (Though the 8th picture is really freaky.)
