Porn star Mason Wyler is HIV+

Queerty reports: Mason Wyler, the porn star and entrepreneur (real name: James Wallace), reveals he's HIV-positive in a blog post saying, "I have only myself to blame. I have HIV and it kind of sucks." It was followed up the next day with a demand to "STOP" criticizing him and his sex life.

He writes:
"I am a sex fiend. I am NOT a monster. So to the people who are spreading rumors that I have done otherwise, STOP. You are not saving anyone's life by talking about me so STOP. You can not equate countless hours spent browsing hook-up sites and blogging about my sexual desires online to a wild and irresponsible sex life offline so STOP. You don't know what I do in my private life so STOP. What you are saying about me could be considered defamatory so STOP. You have already done enough damage so STOP. Seriously. Just STOP."
The acknowledgment comes after a brewing porn "war" which included stories of Wyler being fired from his own website, having his roommate (also a porn star) tweet that Wyler is "spreading disease," allegedly still cruising Adam4Adam with a profile that says he's HIV-negative, and having his status exposed by porn publisher Mark Wilson of Great Atlantic Media, which manages the websites of some of Wyler's fellow industry stars. Supposedly it was in the name of safety for other performers.

Wyler made headlines in 2008 for allegating that an Army soldier raped him.

Regarding the Barry Manilow concert in Coral Gables

[ Editor's note ] Three monumental things have happened to me at the BankUnited Center. In 2004, my high school held its graduation ceremony there. In 2008, I heard presidential nominee Barack Obama speak about the future. And this past Saturday night, I saw the incomparable Barry Manilow perform in concert. To say that Barry remains every bit the superstar I was hoping for is putting it mildly. At 67 years young, he brought all the magic, the smiles, and the bandstand boogie he's famous for and then some. Funny, talented and charmingly self-deprecating, Barry Manilow remains without equal. Admittedly, the night started off rather poorly. Barry’s opening act was a man named Gerry McCambridge who has allegedly been wowing audiences at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas since 2005. As the creative force and inspiration behind the TV show The Mentalist , McCambridge's schtick is to do clever things with numbers. Honestly, I've never thought that doing anything with numbers w
