Appraising Brent Corrigan

[JamesXR]

Yesterday evening I noticed that Brent Corrigan was signing up for BoyzShop.com. The name was familiar to me so I looked him up. From there I checked out BrentCorriganOnline.com and noticed the decent alexa ranking. Naturally I sent him a personal welcome email.
Today I noticed the whole deal with him leaving BrentCorriganOnline and moving to BrentCorriganinc.com. I noticed him blogging about getting a retail job. He seems to be a bit impoverished. What is the Brent Corrigan name worth these days? I know it's crazy cold to ask that, but is he on his way out of adult, or is he going to bounce back? I tend to be optimistic and I'm straight, I may recognize the name, but I don't pretend to be in touch.
He says he'll pull his fans over to the new site and be back like never before. He says he wants to use our store to make money. If he's got a viable brand I want to turbocharge it and blast him out of destitution. We're not packing a porn production operation over here, but we've got a kickass retail platform and fantastic fulfillment capabilities. I'll put in the effort to help him customize his site right whether he's taking off or not, but I want to know if I should be doing more.

Thanks Lee, but I did my research, checked his wikipedia entry, searched the forum. We had to pull some images from our store and the DVDs from eXtremeRestraints.com and BoyzShop.com.
I'm not looking for who he was. I wanted to know who he is today, and who he might be tomorrow.

I wanted to know who he is today, and who he might be tomorrow.

He's that scumbag who appeared in underage porn and blamed everyone except himself today.

He'll also be the same guy tomorrow $0.02

Just my opinion of course. But when the going got rough, he decided what was happening was 'wrong' while he was making money he was fine with it all.

To play devil's advocate, don't they have age rules because people under 18 don't always make the wisest life choices.
Of course studies have show that people's brains are still adolescent into the early 20's, but the law compromised because conservatives wanted to marry kids off young. I like that the Chinese government doesn't allow marriage before 25. But I'm derailing my own topic.
I'm just wondering on the appeal of Brent Corrigan, beyond the hype.

They do however, ask yourself, do you want your company associated with someone who appeared in underage porn films?

Thats the bottom line here, its your companies reputation on the line, whats that worth in terms of possible revenue?
