Hey TMZ & CNN, Stop Musclin' in on our Racket!

Jet Set Men’s new title "Jersey Score," a gay porn parody of reality television favorite Jersey Shore has been featured a number of talk shows and entertainment magazines, including TMZ and CNN’s The Joy Behar Show.

Adult performer Kevin Cavalli earned a nod as “the Meryl Streep of porn” during TMZ's TV broadcast because of his appearance in both Jersey Score and the heterosexual adult parody Jersey Shore XXX. Meanwhile, Behar hosted a panel discussion about Jet Set’s flick on her show. Comedian Jay Mohr could not resist the temptation, telling Behar he had two callbacks for auditions but didn’t possess the abs to make the cut.

Chris Steele, head of Jet Set, said the mainstream flurry caught him by surprise. “It’s not every day you go to work and discover your gay porn photos all over TMZ,” he told GAYVN. “When CNN called asking for photos, it was like the stars aligned around Jersey Score. The media attention was all very unexpected because the DVD [wasn’t scheduled to] come out till May 24 and the trailer was online less than 24 hours [when mainstream discussions erupted]. Steele said much of the credit for attracting mainstream attention to Jet Set’s productions goes to new Director of Casting and Marketing Rob Romoni, who joined the studio’s staff only last week.
