For most teenage boys, getting hold of some porn is the beginning of a good weekend. For Pierre Fitch, it was the beginning of a career. Now one of Canada's best known gay porn stars, Fitch saw the potential for profit from his early days of surfing the internet as a randy adolescent."If those guys are going to be naked, I'm going to be naked," Fitch told himself as a kid.
And, to the delight of his legions of fans, Fitch has since bared all on dozens of websites and countless DVDs. At 26, he has proven himself a shrewd entrepreneur, having built a thriving business around his red-hatted, tattooed image.
Once the darling of Falcon Studios, a mammoth US producer of gay erotic entertainment, Fitch spurned the glitz of California for Montreal — but not before using it to make his name. Now he's working at his own pace, shooting his porn his way.
In fact, things have been going so well that Fitch many soon be bowing out of the red spotlight. When Capital Xtra sat down with him recently, Fitch let it slip that, in a year or two, he'll stop starring in movies in order to concentrate on behind-the-camera work and running his business. By the time he's 40, Fitch plans to be retired and living the high life.
So how did a kid from Cornwall, Ontario become a prince of porn?
"I just always looked at porn. I checked porn sites and said, 'This looks like a nice moneymaker,'" says Fitch. "So when I turned 18, the day after, I sent out pictures of myself and I got my first job at HM Boys."
He bounced from gig to gig in Canada, including one that saw him living at a vermin-infested Toronto condo, where horny users logged on to watch the boys at play. He even spent a year in our city, using Ottawa as a base to send out pictures.
