Kevin Williams (porn star)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kevin Williams (born in November 1965) was a gay pornographic actor (porn star) during the 1980s. Attractive, athletic, and blonde, Williams quickly became one of the most popular performers during the "vintage, pre-condom" era. Williams was best known for playing the role of the "bottom" in his films.

[edit] Rise to fame
Williams quickly became a gay porn star because of his electric performances. He took on some of the "biggest" men of the era, including Chad Douglas in In Your Wildest Dreams. Further adding to his resume, Williams appeared in Hot Rods 2: Young & The Hung; a highly controversial release that was banned in several countries due to the extreme sexual content of the "Lazy Susan" scene in which Williams was dominated by leather-clad men with dildos and steel balls, and double-penetrated.
[edit] Look-a-likes
Williams became the quintessential blond twink in gay pornography in the 1980s, and many studios rushed to get their own look-a-like. Falcon Studios' performer Chris Williams bore a striking resemblance to Kevin, and allusions were made to them being cousins, but they were in fact, not related. Chris Williams died of AIDS in the early 1990s.
[edit] Disappearance and comeback
Towards the end of the 1980s, Williams had disappeared from the gay porn scene. Many speculated that Williams had suffered the same fate of many gay porn actors of his time by succumbing to AIDS/HIV. But none of that proved true.
In 1998, Kevin Williams made a surprising return to pornographic entertainment. His comeback was said to be sparked by director John Rutherford, who allegedly convinced Williams to accept a role in the Falcon Studios film Betrayed. He went on to star in Hot Wired: Viewer's Choice and Full Filled, two additional films by Falcon Studios.
In these later three films, Williams is no longer a boyish twink, but a grown man who had become considerably more muscular and acquired a mature, handsome look. Many reviews for his comeback films claimed that he looked better than ever. Williams was romantically linked to fellow Falcon Studios co-star Lane Fuller for some time during this period, their relationship ended in 2002/2003 with Lane moving to Los Angeles.
Rumors on the Internet in the mid-1990s had Williams working as a real estate agent in San Diego, but there is no evidence to substantiate this.
