Keiran Lee (born January 15, 1984) is a pornographic actor, director, and producer who works for production company Brazzers.[1]
Lee is the only man in the world with a penis that is reportedly insured for $1 million.[4]
Early life
Lee was born and raised in the village of Littleover in Derby, England.[5][6] Growing up, he attended Saint Benedict Catholic Voluntary Academy.[5] By the age of 18, he was working as a project manager for Network Rail.[5][7]
Career
Lee's career in porn began after his friends uploaded a nude photograph of him to a swingers website.[7] After seeing the post, a couple offered Lee a role in porn.[7] He began freenlancing in porn in England before signing an exclusive contract with Brazzers after coming to America.[7]
In August 2011, Brazzers placed a billboard advertisement with a photo of Lee in a tank top and sunglasses on Sunset Boulevard.[8] Dan Miller from XBIZ referred to it as "a landmark promotion for a male porn star."[8] In 2012, it was reported that Brazzers had taken out an insurance policy with Lloyd's of London, insuring Lee's penis for a reported $1 million.[4][9] In an interview with Elite Daily, Lee revealed that that the policy was the only way he would receive compensation if he ever damaged his penis.[10]
In October 2013, Lee made his feature film directorial debut with Hot Chicks Meet Big Fangs for Digital Playground.[11] He has appeared in 1,144 videos for Brazzers as of July 15, 2016.[12]
The Sex Factor
From May to July 2016, Lee appeared as a mentor and judge on The Sex Factor, an online reality series featuring sixteen men and women competing for $1 million and a three-year porn contract.[13][14] Lee, along with fellow pornstars Lexi Belle, Remy LaCroix and Tori Black, would offer advice and judge the contestants throughout the competition.[14][15] In her review of the series, Janis Hopkins from Vice News was critical of Lee's judging, commenting that "he has confused the deadpan tell-it-like-it-is judging technique of real TV with just straight up being a dickhead."[6] Lux Alptraum of The Verge was also critical of the judging, referring to the hosts as "stilted".[16] Jeremy Glass from Thrillist agreed with this sentiment, calling the judges "hard to watch."[17]
Personal life
Lee is married to former pornstar and host for Playboy TV Kirsten Price.[3][10] The two currently reside with their infant son in Calabasas, California.[5] He boxes regularly to stay fit.[3] Lee is a big fan of soccer, saying he, "schedule[s] [his] whole life around the Rams.[5] In 2011, while playing soccer for the Hollywood United F.C., Lee had to be hospitalized after breaking his jaw in two places.[5][18]
