JR Matthews
One of today's fastest rising & hottest young stars


  You don't see much of those guys referred to as carrot tops, stranberry blonds or gingerheads so it stands to reason that the gay porn world is sexually fascinated with and intrigued by these uniquely coiffed performers. One of these copper-haired cuties is super-sexy Titan star JR Matthews who also stands out for his good looks, fantastically muscled body, and a host of hot performances. One of 2009's hottest newcomers JR Matthews has also been one of the industry's fastest rising stars and his carrer shows no signs of slowing down. We had a chance to chat with JR Matthews and find out a little bit about this relatively soft-spoken star.

Jack Manly:  Thanks for taking time out to talk and letting us & your fans learn more about you. How did you get into the biz?
 
JR Matthews: I got into the biz the good old fashion way, sending in model applications and photos. No agents, no connections with current models.

JM: Did you have a mentor or someone who discovered you?

JR: No, I sometimes wish that I did have a mentor to educate me a little and to hook me up with connections.

JM:  You made a big leap from a Hot House Backroom video to becoming a Titan exclusive. How did it happen?

JR: Actually my first project was Full Access with Titan Men and Hot House was my second. In the interim I decided to push to work exclusively with Titan Men.

JM: What was it like to do your first video and movie? Considering that these were major releases and you were new, were you intimidated at all by working with these establised stars?

JR:   My first shoot was absolutely amazing! I actually wasn't nervous at all, for someone reason I felt very comfortable and excited. CJ Madison was my first scene partner and my guys from Titan told me that he was a total sweet heart (very much) and would make me relax and very comfortable. (JM note: this was Full Access)
  My second Titan release was Folsom Maneuver where Dean Flynn was my partner. We actually got to meet at the 2009 GAYVN Awards and party together, so we got to know each other before we shot a scene together. All my guys have made me feel very comfortable and special! xoxo

JM:  Who are your inspirations or porn crushes?

JR: I will not speak of my crush--- I will actually let you figure that out because he was a scene partner already. A friend of mine saw the scene and he quickly knew that I had a crush on him.

 (note: Well JR Matthews fans? Any guesses?) 

JM: What do you think are the qualities which set you apart from other performers? (both your physical side and your performing style)

JR: I have a artistic mind and want to use it more to create scenes.

JM: Which director(s) would you like to do a scene with?

JR:  Well as far as directors go, it would have to be of course Chi Chi LaRue!!!!!
 
JM: What about other porn stars you'd like to work with?

JR:  I know that there are more Titan exclusives that I will get to work with at some point. There are a few on the top of my head that I would like to work with: Adam Killian, Rob Romoni, Samuel Colt and Landon Conrad. I'm always interested in working with "new to the biz" guys too.

 (JM note: are you listening guys?)

JM: How was it to do dialog, acting AND performing in Battle Creek Breakdown?

JR: It was strange at first.  I remember the first thing on my mind was if I do a script I don't want it to sound fake or cheesy!!! So I was very picky after each take to make sure that it was what Joe and myself wanted. Joe Gage is wonderful I have done two scenes with him and hope to do more.

JM: What are you working on now or next?

JR: I don't like to give to much away, but you can look for me in Titan's IML release and just finished a scene about two weeks ago.

JM: What can fans expect to see from you? What kind of stuff would you like to do next?
 
JR:  What can fans expect? Well I'm hoping to learn more about fetish and push myself more to find what my limits actually are. What I would like to venture off and do is a little more modeling and traveling to perform/dance!

JM:  Speaking of wjhich, what are your non-porn interests?

JR: Shopping, music, movies, fashion, R&R

JM: What do you think is the most common misconception about you?
 
JR: I don't really read that many blog postings or comments about myself...not sure if that is a good or bad thing. I'm really not sure what people's misconceptions of me are.

JM: Aside from Twitter & Facebook do you have a blog where fans can learn more?

JR: I do have a blogspot blog but can't seem to really get into doing. I know I need to do it since i'm not a big fan of Facebook!!!

JM: Any guilty pleasures (porn or otherwise)?

JR: Pizza, Cheesecake, underwear.
 
JM: Ah, a triple threat! Thanks again JR for chatting. We look forward to seeing even more of your work.
