John Leslie passes away I'm not sure if anyone else heard but John Leslie passed away on December 7 of an apparent heart attack. He is one of the few performers that was able to move behind the camera and make great movies. I'm including alink from the xbiz website with agood tribute. http://www.xbiz.com/news/128109 I can say that 2010 has really sucked for me because this was the year that we lost some of my favorite performers from the golden age of porn. John Leslie, Jamie Gillis and Juliet Anderson. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

John was an exceptional guy in the industry. Back in the 90's he won best director many years in a row, sometimes in both the film and video categories in the same year. Chameleons was, IMO, his best work. The industry will be a little bit less classy now. | |

This is especially a blow to me because he (Leslie) practically introduced me to porn. I've followed this man's film career from his earlist work in porn on up until his last days. I feel as though I grew up with the guy. John has starred in countless adult movies, laid most, if not all, the top starlets who was in the business of porn acting. And it follows he was one of the few males doing porn whose acting talent peeked almost any mainstream actors you can name. Losing these giants of Porn so prematurely (Jamie, Holmes, Leslie) is not only shocking but instills a deep sense of loss. I don't know what rewards await these guys in the afterlife that they haven't already had in the flesh....'cause if there's a heaven on earth, Leslie, Gillis, and Holmes have already had their share of that. | |

I saw plenty of flicks with John Leslie in them, back in the days of 16mm and VHS. 65 is rather young these days. He even died at his computer. I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |

That subject line threw me, I thought you meant the other John Leslie. I wondered why there wasn't anything on the news about it! Webmaster of StripGameCentral and A Measure of Curiosity. | |

I hadn't heard this - surprising that he passed away so suddenly but who knows what kind of illnesses he might have had long ago that weakened his system. When I was in my 20's a gf of mine had a close friend that was in excellent shape - also in his 20's - keeled over and died while he was jogging. It turned out that he and she had both come down with horrible cases of dysentery when they had been traveling in Mexico years before and the autopsy showed that it was that episode of dysentery that had weakened his heart. Leslie was easily one of the most artistic porn producers - he had an incredible eye. | |

A nice video tribute to John Leslie, here - including lots of his music and his painting - talented mother-fucker. http://kevinmooreonline.com/video/johnleslie.html | |
