Gay Icon Michael Brandon Awaiting Drug Felony Trial


Michael Brandon famous for his huge 10 inch cock nick-named Monster and 2 time GAYVN performer of the Year is arraigned on three felony drug dealing counts. Brandon (and Monster) have starred in more than 150 gay adult movies in seven years between 1999 and 2006, then just seemed to vanished into thin air.

The mystery of Brandon's disappearance was solved Tuesday when SF Weekly ran a first-person account of a reporter's accidental encounter with the missing star inside a San Francisco courtroom. Brandon, who had been arrested in June, was there to be arraigned on three felony drug counts after police caught him dealing meth, speed and Ecstasy.

"It was like a remake of a bad movie," SF Weekly reporter Ashley Harrell wrote. "Though Brandon had been on top of his game for the past eight years, he had spent most of the '90s in Orange County, addicted to crystal meth. From those days, he had two felony convictions from two separate arrests. He had spent more than three years in state prison, and had no interest in going back." Yet that may be exactly where he is headed.

Brandon pulled himself out of the self-imposed drug-induced haze of the '90s and eventually became the spokesman for San Francisco's prominent public relations campaign to defeat meth use among gay men. He attracted the adoration of porn fans and industry insiders alike with what Raging Stallion's Marty Rosenthal called "the warmest, most caring, most welcoming, most down-to-earth personality you could ever meet."

Brandon himself once famously wrote, "I'm walking, living proof that there is life after crystal meth. Folks don't need to lose their mind, end up in jails, hospitals, on the streets, or turned away by family members. I've already been there for you."
