Gay Porn Star Rejects Plea Deal After Trespassing at Lucas Studios |
NEW YORK—Vito Gallo, a bearded and buff former sailor who last year became a Lucas Entertainment exclusive, was arrested Sept. 12 after he "angrily barged into the Hell’s Kitchen studio of adult film mogul Michael Lucas," the New York Post reported Monday, the same day Gallo "rejected a no jail plea deal... in Manhattan Criminal Court which would have let him cop to disorderly conduct if he attended anger management classes." Gallo was reportedly upset because he felt he was not being given enough work, and took matters into his own hands. "Although he’s not charged with assault," reported the Post, "video footage appears to show the tall porn actor push and strike Lucas in the neck and shoulder as the skin flick titan tries to call cops." According to Lucas, "He just stormed into our offices and started beating people up. Several people locked themselves into the editing suite. You had to see his eyes, the veins bulging on his forehead. It was scary.” The Post also seemed to think the "hot-pink T-shirt" Gallo was wearing when he was arrested was also scary, or at least could have been problematic for the tall, muscular ex-Navy man, and asked him about it Monday as he was leaving the courthouse. “Wearing pink to jail isn’t ideal,” Gallo replied. “I got a lot of looks.” As for his invasion of Lucas, it seems as if all may end well. The Russian-born studio head appears ready to forgive and forget as long as some conditions are met. "We’d love him to return if he goes through very serious anger management and sees a shrink.” Regarding the amount of work Gallo gets, however, Lucas was steadfast that it is sufficient. "We were using him all the time,” he insisted. “He’s very popular, he’s very good looking and he’s one of my top four performers." According to the Post, "The 28-year-old [Gallo] makes approximately $1500 per film and is a top model at the multimillion-dollar agency, where last year he signed an exclusive three year contract.
