Jessie Montgomery Needs New Furniture, Seth Santoro Needs Lasik, And More In This Week’s Porn Star GoFundMe Campaigns

We live in an age when porn stars have unprecedented direct access to fans but they make a fraction of the money that big stars used to make shooting scenes. Part of that is because of piracy, and part of that is because the existing studios pump out so many scenes a month that nobody makes big money per scene anymore. So, many models go-go dance, escort, and bartend, and some of them like new Titan exclusive Eric Nero, have legit careers that they just take quick breaks from in order to get fucked by hot studs on camera for a little extra spending cash.

But, because everyone can make direct appeals to fans on Twitter, we have the phenomenon of Amazon wish lists (Ryan Rose’s, FYI, currently has a $1400 Apple Watch on it, as well as a $1200 solid gold toothpick, and some $5,800 diamond stud earrings), and, of course, the modern form of digital panhandling, GoFundMe campaigns.

Remember when Johnny V, who had only made his porn debut months before, put up a GoFundMe campaign last fall asking for $100,000 for “family debt and future schooling”? Yeah, crazy.

Some porn stars have legit art/video projects their working on, and have sought fan funding for, like Colby Keller and Levi Michaels — Levi, in fact, quadrupled the $4,000 goal of his IndieGogo campaign for a travel series he wants to do called NSA. And I guess this means he’ll be bringing a camera man/fuck bud with him to Machu Picchu. Also, he’s come out with his real name, Rustin Charles, under which he appears to be working on this video project, and now he simultaneously tweets as both Levi and Rustin.

This week there are some new campaigns, at least one of them a bit more frivolous. Twink porn star Jessie Montgomery has moved and he’s asking fans for $5,500 for “stuff for my new apartment in L.A.!!!!” The campaign just launched, and three people have so far kicked in a total of $50. I hope Jessie’s got a lot of Bed Bath & Beyond coupons!

Next we have the Santoros, and Billy Santoro helping publicize a GoFundMe for husband Seth to get Lasik surgery. They’re looking for $4,762. As Seth jokes, “Currently my vision is abysmal. If you had a twelve inch dick and a tattoo above it, I wouldn’t be able to read it. The horror!” Also, he’s pursuing a degree in nursing, and he’d like to have “unimpeded vision.” Hey, who knew that Seth Santoro knew words like “abysmal” and “unimpeded”!?

Also Dirk Caber’s husband Jesse Jackman has launched a GoFundMe to buy a “hybrid” electric piano for Dirk, who is a composer and musician who’s been living without a piano since he moved in with Jesse in Boston a year ago. They had a modest goal of $5,000 even though the piano is going to cost between $10,000 and $15,000, and since they’ve already exceeded the goal and raised $9,000 in six days, Dirk happily shared a composition of his that he says he hasn’t shared before. Fans clearly want to see Dirk fulfill his creative side, so that’s nice.

Now, watch Jessie Montgomery not making a living getting fucked by the adorable Blake Mitchell for Helix.

  1. I find it funny that Jesse donated $30 to Seth when his Gofundme raised almost $10k. Way to spread the wealth bud.

  2. Gee, what a bunch of haters here, the venom in the mails speak for itseld. I don’t care about these funding things but i don’t object to them either. In fact i would even add some funds for a pornstar who gave me much pleasure on screen, depending on what he needed the funding for…the best funding is of course rent them as an escort but even then the results are often disappointing…as an overaged daddy now i DO need my pornstars, my world would be much poorer without them, so they get my respect per se..on the other hand several pornstars are indeed pretty boring and show no Chemistry whatsoever on screen

  3. Forget momentarily that there are people dumb enough to buy extravagant gifts for total stranger porn actors. What I want to know is who actually makes enough money to drop $1400 on the Apple Watch for what’s his name? I sure as hell don’t have that kind of disposable income!

  4. Won’t give to panhandlers, whether physical or digital. Panhandling used to be illegal in a lot of places. Maybe it still is. The world has changed and now it seems to be OK to get rich however you can do it. Do a sex-tape (Kim Kardashian), be a digital panhandler. At the heyday of gay porn in the 90s, it used to be possible to make a lot of money. Not any more. Kim Kardashian probably wouldn’t get the attention for her fuck these days, either. Such is life. As some have written, the web-cammers produce better porn than a lot of the studios, and you know they are not faking their interest like G4Payers do. The only problem with web-camming is that it is real-time and you need to be in the right timezone. No doubt, digital technology will fix that, too.

  5. I don’t get why Seth Santoro is doing a GoFundMe…his husband escorts (Billy Santoro’s overnight rate is USD $2000 and his weekend is USD $5000, and he will let you PNP & bareback based on his Rentboy ad). Billy needs to book a weekend muscledaddy client of murky serostatus in Palm Springs, and BANG–Seth can get his Lasik….if the client can get past that annoying voice.

  6. Porn is not supposed to be a career. It’s for down and out people that need to make a quick buck. The pay per scene going down was inevitable with the rise of modeling agencies that collect a fee to produce talent and book models. Piracy is a killer but it’s up to the studios to be innovative and protect their content from being plastered everywhere. The new talent is looking less and less attractive with each update so naturally membership is dropping. The best looking guys out there either are terrible performers or don’t do anything but tease. Hell I really don’t blame Sean Cody for cashing out because who knows where things are headed. And lets face it, a lot of the free amateur stuff out there is better than the choppy edited scenes studios put out anyways especially the scenes where there is zero chemistry between models. The new frontier seems to be live webcam shows, but they better capitalize on that front before those Eastern European and Russian boys takeover.

  7. These guys are believers in the P.T. Barnum philosophy: “There’s a sucker born every minute.” They’ll keep begging as long as suckers keep giving.

  8. So, let me get this straight (so to speak) because these guys can’t get regular jobs they feel like their “fans” need to support them? GoFundMe is a joke.

  9. As for the funding requests, just remember the stupidity of 3 sports fans who were raising money to pay for millionaire Tom Brady’s fine from “Deflategate”. Put it on social media and some sucker will jump to it for whatever reason – hopeing to make contact with star, sexual fantasy or just plain stupidity! Remember, they walk among us!
