Christian Duffy (born December 1961), also known as Chris Duffy was an American professional bodybuilder, who also worked as a gay porn actor in the gay pornography film industry under the pseudonym Bull Stanton.[2][3][4]

Early life

Duffy was an All-American in high-school football,[4] and started to train as a bodybuilder during his teen years.[4] Duffy's idol was bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger.[1]

Career

Bodybuilder

In 1984, Duffy became the overall winner of the NPC Southern States bodybuilding championships.[5] Three years later he placed first among heavyweights in the Los Angeles Championships, where he was also given the gold medal for the overall winner.[6] His greatest achievement came in 1992 when he won the NPC Nationals in the heavyweight division—becoming the US national bodybuilding champion and obtaining the NPC Professional League card.[4][7] The same year he was awarded the silver medal at another nationwide contest—the NPC USA Championships.[8][9] Duffy would go on to compete in many bodybuilding contests, and placed fifth in the 2002 Mr. Olympia in the Masters division.[10]

During the early 1990s, Duffy was a cover model, and some of his photographs were used in the Muscle & Fitness magazine.[4]

Gay porn actor

From 1994, Duffy worked in the gay porn industry under the pseudonym Bull Stanton,[4][11] and became a first widely acclaimed bodybuilder to appear in gay pornography.[12] He was directed by Durk Dehner in The Wild Ones (1994), produced by Tom of Finland Company, [12] and appeared in several film by Jack Fritscher that where focused on bodybuilders.[2][3][13]

In late 1994, while divorcing his second wife, Duffy began a relationship with Michael Alago, who initially met Duffy as a gay escort.[13] Alago's biography said that Duffy had entered the gay film industry to support his work as a male escort, and that he has ended his relationship with Joe Weider's International Federation of BodyBuilding & Fitness because "Weider wanted him to do too much work for too little money; and because he felt it was not right to be working as a bodybuilder while making adult videos".[13] Alago recounted that Duffy told him he was also HIV positive; the relationship ended in 1996.[13]

Duffy then entered a romantic relationship with fellow gay porn actor and ex-Royal Marine Blue Blake.[14][12][15][16][17] They appeared in several movies together, including The Wild Ones and Nothin' Nice (1996), and posed for the cover of Advocate Men magazine in July 1994.[14][12][11] Duffy speaks openly about his bisexuality.[17] In the interview with Muscular Development he described himself as "hypersexual" and declared that he belongs to the LGBT community.[4]

Retirement

Duffy kept training in bodybuilding gyms, and competed in Masters events,[1] but also unsuccessfully attempted to become a professional golfer quoting Tiger Woods as this new inspiration.[1][13]
