Jordan Young is a porn star in the 1990s who has managed to make a name for himself outside of the gay porn industry. Recently, this hottie was named as Fremantle Media’s Vice President for Casting and Talent. Fremantle, as we all know, is the producer of the hugely successful American Idol.
Via gaywired.com:
Entertainment Giant Fremantle Media North America, producers of hit shows like American Idol, America’s Got Talent and The Price is Right, this week named former gay adult film star Billy Kemp as the company’s new Vice-President of Casting and Talent.
Working under the name Jordan Young, Kemp starred in and wrote a string of hit gay porn titles in the ’90s and was at one time even the roommate of legendary gay porn director and producer, Chi Chi La Rue.
Though Kemp has made a name for himself in mainstream television over the last decade working as a casting executive on shows like Temptation Island and Elimidate, his introduction to Hollywood came via the world of gay adult film, where he quickly became one of the most popular Asian performers in the history of the business starring in titles like Lost In Vegas, The Freshmen and Idol In The Sky to name a few.
Congratulations to you Jordan. We wish you more success in the future. More about Jordan Young or Billy Kemp here.
