Male performer Rod Daily reported today that he is in fact HIV positive. Rod Daily is the boyfriend of Cameron Bay, the female performer who tested positive for HIV two weeks ago.
Since her positive test everyone has been trying to pinpoint how she got it. Much blame has been placed on her boyfriend, male porn star Rod Daily because he has sex in gay pornos of which is was later revealed that during the entire 8 years he was making gay porn, he always wore a condom. So then there is the question of those movies he did was transsexuals and his on the side escorting.
But today something truly interesting was revealed. He didn’t test positive for HIV when she did. Last week his test came back negative.
“@Rod_Daily: My antibodies just showed up on a test this week which is scary because they didn’t a week ago.”
So now we have two main questions … the first is, if she tested first does that mean she possibly infected him? Or was it just that he is such a healthy person, obviously big into working out which is evident by his body, that she just showed first?
And the next question is, if he tested negative last week, and so did Xander Corvus, who we know also had unprotected sex with Cameron Bay during the time in which we thought she was positive (in between her last negative and her first HIV positive test), So because he tested negative the FSC lifted the performer moratorium and went back to work. But is it possible he could be like Rod Daily and be HIV positive and just not know it yet? Could it be like Rod Daily, Xander’s first test came back negative but what about his most recent ones?
I think of completely clueless girls like Aaliyah Love who think that because the “doctors” told her she can go back to work everything is fine and shot two boy/girl scenes this week. She clearly thought everything was okay because hey the people who are supposed to be looking out for her best interest (the FSC) told her everything was okay. But was it really?
Why did they allow everyone to go back to work so quickly after a confirmed case of HIV? That makes no sense.
For sure two people in our industry have tested positive for HIV in the last two weeks and how many people did they have sex with in between when they thought they were fine and when they found out they weren’t? How many people did those people have sex with in between that time? Xander Corvus books a lot of work. If he in fact does come back as HIV positive, think how many people he had sex with in the last 30 to 60 days, UNPROTECTED. And now think about how many people those people had sex with in that time period.
This whole thing just makes me so sad. Everyone is so into the power grab that the people we are supposed to be looking out for is getting hurt.
Now the FSC is even coming out trying to claim that the person tweeting isn’t really Rod Daily. Can we not just get along for long enough to do what is best for our girls? -sigh-
The FSC is a trade organization and has been a lobbying group since 1994, their responsibilities are to their stock holders and sponsors. Aaliyah the Airhead just wants somebody to tell her what to do, the FSC doesn’t give a damn about her or her friends because there’s 1000 other bimbos out there in LA with daddy issues and problems with stable employment who are more than willing to take her place.
I hate to say it, but your inquiries will probably go unanswered because of the window period between infection and when it produces a positive test result. Some take a week, some take three, but they’re still contagious. I’m also highly skeptical about your correlation between somebody who works out and their interest with personal health, but that’s for another day.
First I would say that my heart goes out to all of those who have been infected by this situation.
With that being said, we do not know what type of test his doctors were using. If it was just the antibody test that can take 3 months to show up.
We cannot verify any of the information that he is saying due to him using a private doctor. There is clearly a reason why he used a private doctor, I feel its perhaps something he is hiding. What it was I do not know.
Everyone should just take at least a month break.
I agree. Everyone should take a month long break just to be safe. When it comes to the lives of our girls, it’s better to be safe than sorry. To bad the FSC doesn’t agree.
Kelli this was a really good post on this site. I don’t think many performers are thinking right now. It’s too soon and many of them are not thinking long term.
You talk about about Aaliyah Love and Xander Corvus, but what about the ladies or men who would directly/indirectly fuck gay or TS performers. Some ladies like Sara Jay, Lisa ann, Richelle Ryan and more ladies have work with a male performer that does both sides in the past.
So again it’s there choice, but it’s very risky. We all we upset with Mr. Marcus, but I think this thing will be worst in the long run!
I meant to say in the last line, we all were upset with Mr Marcus!
Here’s the truth: Remembering back to a couple years ago when I worked behind the scenes for a major gay porn studio (the condom only side) I can say one of two things usually happened. The performers were positive before they even entered the industry (remember unlike the straight industry, on the gay side the majority of performers are anywhere in their mid twenties to early forties when their career begins) or they get it from crystal method induced unprotected sex in their personal life/escorting. None of the major gay studios test for stds because they all have strict condom only requirements. The smaller bareback studios like treasure island media or SX, don’t test either because most these men are already positive. As far as Rod Daily goes, while I don’t know him personally, I am willing to bet that Rod has been living with HIV for a while and Cameron Bay got it from him… But then again who knows? We need to quit acting as if these performers only have sex when their being filmed…
But, but, but, i thought condoms are an impermeable membrane… thats y gays (those with gay related immune deficiency, later known as aids) use condoms….ahf, y have u forsaken us?
Performers seem to be under the impression that testing is prevention. It’s not. Testing is a way to tell you if you do or don’t have an STD but it won’t stop you from getting it.
And that mindset is what is really hurting our girls. They think oh but we are safe, but they aren’t. Not even close. Like rebellion said … “We need to quit acting as if these performers only have sex when their being filmed”.
I love porn and sex, but don’t like this crossover porn shit! Also people forget something else. Who ever you fuck or sleep with, you also slept with every other person your partner slept with or fucked!
So if he or she is doing this cross over porn movies or in there personal life, guess what you fuck the same people indirectly.
Also I get condoms are not 100 percent, but it’s better nothing at all!
Your line, blackman30, is borrowed & old. Why is hiv still mainly a gay disease if its cuntageous and gays are religiiously usung rubbers in lieu of their “epidemic”?
When I first heard about this; the thought that popped in my head was – crossover talent.
Yup. There it is.
I believe you, Rebellion. A truth that people just want to keep in the closet (as it were). Stupid politics.
I guess since people don’t listen, they need to be reminded no matter how old a statement. Also now a third hiv case in porn world, is being reported yesterday! So I will repeat it again, who ever a person fucks, they are also fucking there partner sex partners too!
It’s about protecting yourself, even when fucking. So condoms are not perfect, but it’s better than nothing at all.
If the standards in testing are not the same in porn, then this shit will be worst than Mr. Marcus!I guess some of the ladies that were upset at him, need to look at themselves too.
Why would you fuck people in crossover or gay porn if the testing is not the same, you are taking the same chance with your life too. Why would anyone keep taking chances like this is hard to understand?
I sent this to Gene Ross earlier as a cautionary tale…and I have to preface this by saying I’ve been reading Jeremy Steele’s ignorant comments for years…shut up! You clearly have zero education, so just stop already. But we all know you won’t because this space is the last refuge you have as a man (using the term loosely) with no argument. That being said…
Hi,
I was an adult performer in the late nineties that went by the name of Amber. My agent was Jim South, and he referred to to work for some scumbags by the name of Max Hardcore, Rodney Moore, etc. I worked with them, and for them. He then highly recommended that I work with a guy named Marc Wallice. “He is a giant in our industry. He is the best of the best. You will be A-list after you work with this guy” is what I was told. Mind you, I was 18 years old, fresh off the bus, and wanted to be the next Jenna Jameson (I look back now, and am so glad I didn’t turn out to be anything like her). I was “dating” Steve Austin (South’s little helper) at the time, and he reassured me that this would be the best thing I could do for myself and so-called career. I had a shoot scheduled with Mr. Wallice, and I don’t remember the company, just that it was run by an angry German lady. On the day I was scheduled to shoot with him, I got horribly lost on the way there and ended up being over an hour late…which was not my norm. When I got there, the angry German lady yelled and degraded me so much, I said “fuck you, I don’t need your money (I did), I don’t need your shit” (I didn’t) told her to fuck off, got my things and left. I’m glad, that even after being subjected to some heinous shit, I still had the self respect to tell her to go fuck herself. Because if I didn’t, I would have HIV today. Literally, one day after that shoot I was supposed to do with Mr. Wallice, it was announced he had faked his HIV tests. I don’t believe in God, but if there were ever a time I did, it was this day. I went and got a PCR-DNA test that day, which was not the norm back then, and had to wait 10 days to find out I was ok…the worst 10 days of my life. Subsequently, I found out he had infected other performers before I was even scheduled to work with him. This is what made me jump right the hell out of porn, and exile everyone that had anything to do with it. These people do not have your back. These people do not care about you. I’m am sickened when people in this industry say “oh, they messed with needles, oh, they fucked crossover performers, they deserved this”….I have done none of those things, but even if I did, I STILL DON’T DESERVE HIV! And neither does anyone else. I was simply young and naive, and trusted the absolute wrong people. Cameron Bay has handled this situation with absolute class, and I hope that she gets the help she not only needs, but deserves. The industry does not care about its performers, only the almighty dollar. And btw, I’m married, and an RN now. I take care of people with AIDS/HIV, and I feel like I’m giving back, even if it’s just a little, in the scheme of things. I just wanted to share this with you, because you seem to actually care about what is right.
P.S. I voted in favor of the condom law, because these little girls were just like me
I agree with rebellion too, we need to quit acting as if these performers only have sex when their being filmed!
So that is my point if a person is into crossover high risk porn, that’s on them. I don’t like it, but that what makes the world go.
Just stop fucking it up for those for a not into that crossover porn shit.
The last line should have been, just stop fucking it up for those people not into that crossover porn shit!
A third actor has tested positive, and this time the moratorium is 30 days:

Now’s your chance to show the world what you’ve learned as a troll, Jeremy. And unlike us, they’ll actually read it!
blkman30, hate to break it to you, but most performers supplement their income with escort work…especially the guys, it’s impossible to live in LA on the scant money made in porn.
Chance to re spond, rsx??? Unlikely at this site! I’ll spend lots of time and effort and itll get deleted!!!!!!
It’s nothing personal. I just don’t know how to explain yet again that there will be no more bullshit drama or bashing others at this site. Period.
tdlb99 I know what you are saying is true, with performers escorting on the side. It’s even more of a reason to wrap it up and all performers should have the same level of std testing period!
