Spiraling Porn Star Jed Athens Thinks He Was Dating Erik Rhodes When He Died

I’ve been trying to ignore the case of angry, seemingly troubled Jed Athens, who’s taken to the internet recently to write fresh screeds against Falcon Studios and director Bruno Bond in particular — motivated by racial preferences in scene partners, or a general bitterness about the porn industry overall, or something. Now he’s lying about dating Erik Rhodes right before he died, and Rhodes’ brother has already come out denying it.

Jed, who previously made a splash with a fisting/milk enema scene for Hot House and a fairly amusing Twitter account, says he started his blog after “great prodding by my close buds and my porn husband Dario Beck” because of his “clear and honest take on the porn industry.” Clear it definitely is not. And as for honest, Jed’s latest post is a totally bizarre fiction he’s constructed to perhaps make himself sound more famous. (Also, we’d like to point out that the rant about Bond and the scene he shot for Falcon in which he says Lucas Vitello was bleeding all over his dick, dates back over a year, and he’d already tweeted about it.)

Str8UpGayPorn points us to Jed’s work of imagination today, and below, we excerpt some so you can try to make some sense of this, punctuation and all:

I am writing this post for a few reasons. Most people think celebs even porn actors are something of interest. There really isn’t much of a difference. Except movie stars get paid way too much money so they can shit on a heated toilet seat. Everyone has hope dreams, goals and aspirations even porn actors. Porn actors’ lives aren’t completely about sex… [But] Some of us have issues with self-esteem and our value system… Not all of us but the ones who are so obsessed they leave their business and run off to do porn. They make porn their lives tend to fall apart at the seams.

I was dating Erik Rhodes when he died. Even though I had told Adam R. at Falcon. He wrote up a statement telling the people he was still dating that half whit Ricardo when he passed. Which was quite upsetting when you read something like that. … Erik was taking these kind of drugs when I was dating him HGH, Steroids, Heroine, Meth, G, and a number of different very powerful prescription pills. From my knowledge I was the only one who ever got him to throw drugs away. He tried to shoot up in front of me. Before he pushed the plunger down he turned and looked at me. I had the look of sadness in my face. He looked like a pit-bull puppy and gave me puppy eyes like he knew he did something bad. He said why, do you make me feel so bad about this. My response was you do drug when you are not happy and when you want the pain to go away. Why would you need that with me? I told him I loved him and he didn’t need to be anything other than himself with me. This was at the Ramada in West Hollywood. He flushed tons of drugs down the toilet and about 3.5 ounces of meth.

Strangely, he uses this story to segue into another rant about Bruno Bond and Falcon, which has nothing really to do with Rhodes or drugs, but Rhodes was a Falcon model I guess…

Rhodes’ brother Jon made some comments on the message board of Rhodes’ Tumblr today saying “James wasn’t dating anyone – he lived with Riccardo – who desperately wanted more which was just not there.” It sounds like he can’t be positive that Rhodes never dated or fucked Jed Athens, but he does say, “I never heard of Jed Athens until now.”

Yeah, neither had most anyone.

Below, a few photos of his occasionally Photoshopped cock, and the milk enema GIF just for the hell of it.

  1. Jed Athens has done a lot of nasty and extreme that would make Jules Jordan proud. No wonder he’s crazy.

  2. Jed is just a nasty, insane freak! I know for a fact…that 3 of the dudes in Lucas’ ‘Jed Athens Raw Gang Bang’ are HIV+. Maybe Jed is too? Fact: If a person with HIV isn’t taking their meds…they can experience mental health issues. Either way…Jed please bow out gracefully. Your ‘career’ in porn is OVER!

  3. OMG,you lil witches need to find jobs to keep you busy so you opinionated comments to yourselves. He is working continuously and has done both condom and bareback videos. It doesn’t make him a “dirty bottom” Jon… first thought I got from that comment was “What an ass!” Don’t like bareback then DON’T WATCH IT, DON’T COMMENT ON IT AND DON’T SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS. Whether its right or wrong is getting mute these days. Lucas Entertainment owner ironically verbally attacked bareback producers and performers saying its immoral and wrong is now filming bareback scenes left and right. Brent Corrigan has got to chuckle at the paradigm shift (consumers buy bareback 10 to 1 over safe versions). Chi Chi LaRue the self proclaimed Safe Sex Advocate and gay porn owner of now the largest gay production conglomerate is the biggest hypocrite on demonizing bareback videos and performers. I personally was encouraged by Chi Chi / Larry at a after party to the GAYVN awards to hook up with bareback performer, Jackson Price. We did hook up and fucked all night bareback in a pool cottage at the after-party house. One of the hottest times I ever had too. And lastly, to make statements about Jed’s sanity right after the Rhodes suicide is thoughtless. Jed had gone on a date with Rhodes and next he’s dead. If you have a hot date and your date dies days later most would be in a daze of disbelief. And Josh said, “It’s nice to see finally see some professional ethics from fellow bloggers.” Professional ethics????? Gay anything and especially porn are not ethical in majority of our society. Better to call it opinionated bloggers who should post only on their blogs and not waste space pushing their agendas onto others.

    1. So you had raw sex because Chi Chi LaRue told you too? Or is it just your practice in everyday life to have raw sex with guys you actually know has raw sex with multiple men?

      If you go on a single date w/ someone doesn’t mean you are dating. LoL.
      So if your date dies a few days later, while it’s tragic it’s not like losing a long time lover.

      But I agree that Michael Lucas is a hypocrite……but obviously something in his life changed if he was an outspoken advocate of safe sex, just to turn around and not only film raw sex, but to also engage in it himself.

      Chi Chi LaRue’s pornos are boring to me. But I guess he has a steadfast audience of loyal older gay white gentlemen who’ll gladly support him & him mediocre scenes. But at least publically he’s taken a stance on safe sex, so he should be applauded for that at least. Everyone knows these guys engage in raw sex in real life.

  4. WOW!!!!! Finally people are getting it! This psycho came into my life and I met him once in a group of people. He has decided to involve himself beyond what a normal person should. I don’t even know him and he definitely doesn’t know me. So herein lies the baffling part; WHO THE FUCK IS THIS GUY!!!! Where do I even begin?! Jed Athens, also know as “Phil” or “Phillip” Smith, needs to be locked away and never let out. He is a very troubled individual, with no understanding of the world and how it works. He makes up lie after lie and actually believes them. He came between me and my best friend, who I considered family and filled him full of complete nonsense. My friend who was visiting from out of town fell in love with Jed and it demolished our friendship altogether. It’s sad and also refreshing, to see that people see this and are on the same page. Some of the shit he writes is just downright ridiculous! I don’t care how hot this asshole is, he’s a fucking nut job. STAY FAR FAR FAR AWAY FROM HIM. You’ll regret ever letting this prick in your life if you do.

  5. If Erik Rhodes was dating Jed Athens, his death was obviously a suicide. Anything to get away from that.

  6. He might be crazy, but he’s hot. Just saw him in Bareback Sex Fest for Lucas Entertainment. Pretty cool.
    He takes big black dicks too. I love seeing that. Even though I don’t like the black model they chose for that scene.

  7. His reply on his site says this:

    ” If Jon was so involved with James then why would his twin brother not get him help dealing with substance abuse or get him to stop escorting? I find it interesting that he would claim to know so much when he was never there. He doesn’t sound like caring brother to me.”

    Um if you were so caring why didn’t you do all those things? What a dumbass.

    I love how he’s so proud his viewership has doubled which will only go to show what a turd of a person he is for anything other than this whole Rhodes thing. Furthermore he says his career is better than ever. How can it be with studio after studio being shat on by him.

  8. I read his blog post on another site and not knowing anything about Jed I thought it was really heartfelt and he was giving us insight on his last days. After further investigation and other reports I now find out that Jed is a very sick man. To attempt to gain notoriety, maybe even further your career on the dead body of Erik Rhodes is just gross. Athens how the fuck do you sleep at night.

    1. T-Bird, he’s shooting milk out of his ass…I’m thinking that giving the old career a boost over the dead body of Erik Rhodes isn’t all THAT much of a stretch…
      But perhaps I am mistaken.

  9. Seems like a mess. The fantasy boyfriend thing makes me wonder what drugs he’s using. He seems pretty generic in loks and performance.

  10. He is seriously in-fucking-sane! Not to mention he has zero stage presence. He just barely stepped into the industry and has already started doing bareback porn… We can all predict where this is gonna go. Good luck buddy.

  11. Thank you for this. I had wondered why people were not talking about this but I’m glad it was out of avoidance of him altogether. This is the first time I’ve written after a very long time following this site. Jed from his twitter account is a racist. The kind of racist that thinks they can talk their way out of it by rationalizing it and thinking they’re intelligent. How on earth is he even getting exposure from Lucas Entertainment anymore after that blog post. He has truly taught me a lesson about burning bridges. He had a sense of entitlement that goes beyond anything I’ve seen.
