“Nudity quickly becomes unremarkable when generally practiced. Then, it is seen as ‘normal.'” ~ Colin Black ~ Interview, 2012
Colin Black first appeared – actually exploded – on the SGL adult film industry scene in 2012! His career rapidly expanded upon the release of his first DVD film. In his very first published interview, he openly and unintentionally committed a major blunder by publicly denying any desire or interest in performing in the alpha (domineering, penetrative) role. He took a breath and then announced that he loved lying around, totally naked while his partner plunged into his buttocks!
A total shock! Unexpectedly, the news of Colin’s surprise revelation with his initial interview became a global sensation not only within the SGL world but in the mainstream universe, too. Overnight, numerous SGL film adult studios “blacklisted” (banished) him from ever working in their facilities. Yet, the news of his public announcement created an astronomical disappearance of his DVD from availability due to sellout and soaring demand. His appealing and handsome face and shirtless body didn’t hurt, either!
Within several days, the SGL film industry rescinded his ban, and studio executives began begging for his services. In less than a week, Colin jetted from anonymity into international fame. Of course, his diverse heritage – African-American, Korean and Indigenous (Native American) – helped to fuel his popularity!
His “perfect looks” (attractiveness) and the fact he was openly gay continued to gain attention and his notoriety soared! A very bold commencement for a newcomer into the industry!
He acknowledged having very little natural body hair – essentially only armpit and pubic – and he wasted no time pretending to conceal or to remove the masculine hirsuteness he possessed. In another interview, he readily admitted to shaving his armpit and pubic hairs upon his graduation from high school (secondary school). At that time, he promised himself he would never do that again!
He eagerly attributed his interest and pursuit of a film career as being due to his personal pride in being a Black gay man and a practicing naturist/nudist. He believed he could serve as a role model for other Black gay nudists and positively represent his identified community for those who may share similar interests.
The SGL film industry presents “Hookie Awards” (gay academy awards) within the performing community. In 2012, Colin Black was awarded the Best Boyfriend Fantasy award.
His outstanding success was paralleled by heavy substance dependency and severe depression. He abruptly quit the porn film business in 2015 in order to rehabilitate himself and to begin treatment to combat depression. In the autumn of 2015, during his recovery treatment, he was diagnosed with terminal (stage 4) cancer.
“Body shame, like prejudice, is not normal. It is learned from others and benefits no one.” ~ Colin Black ~
Towards the end of his life, Colin remained loyal to both his gay and his nakedness communities. He made personal appeals to groups involved in rehabilitation and encouraged all to remain steadfast to their goal of recovery. He often referenced his own hopeless future as an example to all.
Colin Black died on 22 April 2016 at the young age of 32 years old.
“Aaron and I were both saddened and sobered by the death of Colin Black. Just a couple of years earlier he entered the gay adult films and then, just as sudden, he was no longer available and then he died. Such a loss of someone so young, talented and physically appealing to all. In one of his last interviews, he confessed to desiring a larger penis. Then he boldly and enthusiastically acknowledged his proudest physical achievement as being his buttocks! May he rest in eternal peace!” ~ Roger Peterson-Poladopoulos ~
Naked hugs!
