If you haven’t heard of Sean Ford, you’ve might still have seen him. Most likely, naked. He’s the new gay porn star on the block, who treats his work like art. You can see it in his movies – from starring roles in award winning Jake Jaxson features for Cockyboys (ALL SAINTS, Love, Lost and Found, and Le Garçon Scandaleux), to his role in the romantic gay sex-fest FLOWER. Naturally, he’s become a kind of queer fashion muse too, working with Palomo Spain and starring in the Matt Lambert-lensed short film for Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s sex toy release.
“I’m inspired by artists of both the past and present who are open and vulnerable when it comes to their sexuality and displaying it for the world to see,” Ford says. “I feel like living up to the legacy they have handed down to us is part of what drives me.” Having won Best Newcomer at the Str8UpGayPorn Awards in 2017, Ford also wants to act, and to pursue music; but in the meantime, he’s happy to keep learning. “I’m most proud of the way I’ve been able to do what I do without letting it consume me or go to my head, and the way I’ve been able to establish really great relationships with people and artists that I admire,” he says.
