Michael Lucas Found Dead

[vs eddie]

I just got an email blast from JRL Charts Online and in the subject line it reads "Michael Lucas Found Dead by Manhattan Police". Does anyone else on here find this to be as disgusting as I do? I can't believe with all the recent porn star tragedies that have happened lately someone would joke about this to promote their movie. A complete disgrace IMO. :thumbsdown:

C'mon what line are they going to cross next?!?!

I completely agree! In poor taste to say the least.

[hdkbill]

Has their been any type of confirmation or denial about this?:fucked: And, yes, certainly, if this is a publicity stunt it is in damned poor taste.

No it hasn't been confirmed nor denied. Here's the photo that they posted, since crime scene photos aren't taken in b/w or numbered in that way anymore I'm guessing it's a complete hoax.

A quote from a KJCT8.com Colorado news story located here

"The body of Michael Lucas was found by hikers one mile West of Manitou Springs, about 200 yards off the highway. He was found shot three times by a .38 caliber revolver--once in the chest, twice in the head.

According to Colorado Springs Gazette newspaper archives, Lucas had "made a homosexual proposition to Johnson, making arrangements with the defendant [Johnson] to meet to meet him at the isolated area... to perform sexual acts." It's that area where Lucas would meet his killer.

The two, according to the U.S. Marshal's Service, were also involved in distributing marijuana. "



































Of course this was in 1973 so is this the Michael Lucas you guys are referring to?

No, we're talking about Michael Lucas of Lucas Entertainment. I posted his picture above. It says he was found in his NYC Manhattan apartment, as of now I'm taking to be a promotional ploy.

LMAO....I couldn't have picked a better picture!

[chadknowslaw]

My understanding is that it is a big hoax.

Ha ha yeah he's a real sexy guy minus the zoolander stigma ~ the body of adonis, perfect cock etc.

But yeah.. it's a marketing ploy... who knew? :innocent:

Not a very funny one and IMO absolutely tasteless!

[HotMaleVideos]

Wow, they were able to find his body in a conveniently provocative pose, photograph it, develop it, label it, release the evidence to the public and watermark it with his company logo all in a day?

I thought it was hilarious to see crimes solved so quickly on TV CSI shows. Whodathunkit?

Yes, pretty tasteless.

From Michael Lucas:


Yes, I was murdered yesterday. But it was only for the role I'm playing in my new film "Gigolo" (http://www.XXXgigolo.com). So yes, here it is, the publicity stunt. Nothing more than that.

Most of you caught on to the joke, as we put very clearly in the corner of the picture the Lucas Entertainment watermark, and there were a few obvious mistakes in the text. Thank you to you guys for writing about it and playing along, as your mentions were the obviously the idea behind it.

For those who did not catch on the joke, my true and sincerest apologies. I did want to try to keep the charade going for another day or two, but after I received several very concerned emails and phone calls, I decided to cut it short.

For those who said that this is nothing more than a publicity stuntduhand in very bad taste because of the porn stars who have passed on this year, let me tell you, people die in every profession. And in most professions, on a daily basis. There aren't just porn stars who die. There are lawyers and doctors and engineers and toilet attendants. So let's not get all hysterical here and draw unnecessary parallels. The joke was about MY death, not anyone else's!

And last but not least, to those of you who rejoiced at the "news"and I know you're out theresorry to cut your celebration short.

One of my favorite articles to come out of all thisI'm sorry I haven't had time to read everything yet, so there may be the possibility of something even more brilliant out thereis from GayPornucopia.com: http://www.gaypornucopia.com/2007/10...as-found-dead/

no it's true, he really IS dead. Today I played my vinyl "Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band " backwards and it said "Michael Lucas is Dead " or , well maybe "Paul is dead", I can' t be be sure
