The Porn Star At the Dominican Bar

He's back! Porn star fashionisto Erik Rhodes, former sexual liaison of skirt-wearing fashion designer Marc Jacobs, was spotted at a gay bar up in Washington Heights. He looked good, our tipster says, until you realized who he was and not just "some random papi." Stalker report after the jump. More »

The Many Loves of Marc Jacobs

Trendy Wendy fashion designer Marc Jacobs escorted yet another new gentleman friend to last night's Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala, though no one really seems sure who he is. He could be another MySpace find, or some aspiring hanger-on who stumbled into one of the stores one day. Or he could just be a nice fellow who Marc met at the library and they like to take walks along the river and talk about Lorrie Moore books. (Though that's not, um, likely). What a revolving door this man has! Keeping all the hookers, porn stars, and Mensa members straight (heh) can be difficult. If you need a little help, we've provided some clarification (in list form, natch) after the jump. More »

Life Is Not a Fairytale

Sure, it may seem like a good time, but the laissez faire minor-celebrity party scene doesn't always do wonders for one's psyche. Take the sad (but maybe hopeful!) story of Marc Jacobs' former paramour Erik Rhodes. The successful and eager porn star was recently all over the place; enjoying Fashion Week and fancy celebrity-packed dinners, dating a famous designer, etc. He seemed a little dim, yes, but that only made him a more enjoyable character in the Jacobs saga. Dopey guy makes big (for a moment). And yet just a few short months later, Rhodes seems to be having something of a meltdown. More »

Gay Dudes Keep on Keepin' On

The Marc Jacobs threesome triangle game continues on. At last night's Hot Mess, a gay lounge party event (I don't really understand what these things are), former boy-for-rent Jason Preston (who looks disturbingly like someone I knew in high school) arrived on the arm of current gay pornographer Erik Rhodes. Jason is allegedly Jacobs' fiancé , and this may be the first time the pair has appeared without the ubiquitous fashion designer. Some anonymous source is telling Gay Socialite that all three have been screwing the other two separately and together for some time now. Breaking news: gay men sleep with other gay men and are all remarkably open about it. Update: A tipster tells us: "lamme. i was at hot mess last night, erik rhodes and jason preston were not hanging out." Lamme indeed!

Marc Jacobs' Porn Star Friend Cannot Get You A Discount

Gay porn star and escort Erik Rhodes took to his NSFW personal website again to assert, directly this time, that he and designer Marc Jacobs "are just friends" and not sneaking away for hot sex romps (NSFW) behind the back of Jacobs' onetime boyfriend, male escort Jason Preston. But Rhodes stopped short of denying he had hooked up with Jacobs in the past. The best line in his new posting: "Ps. Stop asking me for discounts at the Marc Jacobs store. Jesus." After the jump, slightly NSFW pictures of Rhodes and why he might have attended Jacobs' Fashion Week show, along with Preston. More »
