Gay Porn Performer Josh Weston has Passed Away at 39 Years of Age

It has been reported that gay porn performer Josh Weston passed away on Sunday December 16, 2012 at 39 years of age. A statement has been published at the Hot House blog confirming that Josh succumbed to HIV-related complications. The article further states that Josh started his gay porn career in 2001 as a Falcon Exclusive model and appeared in some of their biggest movies. After leaving that contract, Josh went on to work with other studios including Hot House. Josh later started appearing in bareback porn videos, having worked for studios including Slut Machine, Spunk Video and SX Video. This is very sad news that I feel the need to share with you.
