J. Harvey has a confession to make. He watches soaps.
Well, I don’t actually WATCH them. But I do keep up with them – reading a weekly synopsis here and there, setting the DVR for any pivotal episodes, writing the occasional fan e-mail to Genie Francis. You know – the normal stuff a gay guy into love in the afternoon does. *cringes*
Daytime drama has taken huge hits since its heyday in the 1980s. They are really only four working soaps in existence now (General Hospital, The Young & The Restless, The Bold & The Beautiful, and Days Of Our Lives). And that’s a damn shame. Everyone blames it on OJ’s trial in January of 1995. Combined with the advent of reality TV, this was when America realized real life drama was supposedly more fascinating than adultery, murder, evil twins, stolen babies, being possessed by Satan (!!!), and the list goes on. Fools! What they never take into account is that soap operas hire actors based on LOOKS. Some of the hottest actors out there are popping up on daytime looking sexy as hell! They find the most ridiculous excuses to have these big bohunks lose their clothing!
Case in point – last week on General Hospital, mob diva Sonny Corinthos’ flunky Milo was shanghaied into stripping for Sonny’s fiancee Kate’s (she has an alternate personality named Connie, soaps rule) bachelorette party. The actor playing Milo, Drew Cheetwood, has BODY. Which I never would have gotten to see if I wasn’t a soap fan. Your “legitimate” tv and movies rarely shove the actor out there in just his skivvies, cuz’ it’s all about acting, and story, and blah blah. Flesh, please!
I’d also like to confess that I’m not actually a gay porn blogger. “J. Harvey” is the pseudonym of Ms. Debbie Lipshitz, a housewife and mother of 3 who resides in Champaign, Illinois. It all makes sense now, doesn’t it?

In addition to acting Drew Cheetwood is a personal trainer. That explains that body…and those legs! He could crack some ribs if he got you in a clinch between those tree trunks.
