Collin O'Neal gets camera shy



Collin O'Neal staying behind the cameraCollin O'Neal has announced that his days in front of the camera are over. Instead he now wants to focus exclusively on behind-the-camera work for his World of Men and Collin O'Neal Productions.

"I just think now is the time to focus on working behind the camera, since I feel I created a porn aficionado base that is not focused on me being in front of the camera but rather the hot, new guys I find to perform for me from all around the world," he said.

"Over the past year I have invested a great deal of time managing my business and learning to work the video camera and less time at the gym. I just do not feel so good about my body - in addition to meeting a special person that is not comfortable with me performing - so I made the decision to retire."

O'Neal started doing adult videos back in 2003, starring with his ex-boyfriend Arpad Miklos in "Skuff II." Four years later he won the 2007 Grabby for Best Cock.

"I didn't do too many movies since I was very picky about my scene partners," O'Neal said. "I also had a full-time job and attended night classes for my masters [degree], so I didn't have a lot of time or motivation to do a ton of movies."

Of course, he may reconsider his decision. "I may change my mind in the future, but if I decide to perform again the scene will only be featured on my website," O'Neal said. "I feel more like a businessman now and less like a porn star with an ego like others in the industry that keep performing in their own movies."

Now who could Collin possibly be referring to?
