Along with having one of the most eagerly-anticipated new films (Grunts), Raging Stallion Studios is also attracting its fair share of controversy, first from Michael Lucas, and now from Brodie Sinclair, whom we reported was let go from his exclusive contract with RSS. Since we reported one side of the story, it is only fair to give Brodie his turn at clearing the air. Here is the statement that he released today, unedited and in its entirety:

“I have become the totally innocent victim of a smear campaign of down and dirty lies launched by Chris Ward, Owner of Raging Stallion Studios.Along the way, others, such as Ricky Sinz, have gotten in on the nasty act.

But I want to take this chance to set the record straight on what happened between me and Mr. Ward.

I participated under contract as a studio exclusive in Raging Stallion’s film Grunts, which Mr. Ward is billing as “The most expensive all male erotic movie ever made.”Promises were made to me and then not kept.I was told I would be given my own website, but I was not.I was told I would be paid more money than I wound up being paid. Worst of all, the working conditions on this set were like something you’d expect to find in a Mother Teresa charity orphanage in India.During the period of the filming, we were expected to live in tents full of bugs and flies.There was no catering.Actors had to go to stores to buy food and then cook meals on their own.During the Grunts shoot, we would begin early in the morning and then be kept up working until 1 and 2 in the morning like a herd of cattle.Who can perform at their best in this industry … or in any industry … when only getting four hours of sleep per night?

Mr. Ward told me to just suck it up and shoot my dick up with a needle.Sorry; I don’t go that route.If I have to stick a needle in my dick to get hard, then I’m in the wrong business.I don’t care if Ricky Sinz does use Caverject to get a hard on!And the terrible, worse than third world conditions!I don’t get what Mr. Ward is spending so much money on in this production, because tents don’t cost multiple hundreds of thousands.It’s not as if he gave us the best tents available, either.

So in the middle of filming, I told Mr. Ward that I wanted out of Grunts, and out of my contract with Raging Stallion altogether.I wasn’t being given what I had been promised, and nobody in their right mind would continue under those circumstances. Grunts is a reference to soldiers, but I think if you treated real soldiers that way, it would practically be a violation of the Geneva Conventions.Mr. Ward didn’t want to lose me for the rest of the film, so begged me to stay, and promised me that my pay would be increased.I agreed to remain on set, but in the end Mr. Ward did not pay what he had promised me.

So I went to him and said that I would not work for him any longer.That is when he began his campaign of filthy dirty down-low shameless lies, smearing my good name.I was absolutely shocked to see Mr. Ward’s statements published online saying that he had “fired” me because of what he alleges to be “diva” behavior. I was not “fired;” I quit! I am a nice, honest guy and a thoroughly professional performer.I’m on time, ready to work, and when I work, I work very, very well.That is why Mr. Ward chose me to work for him on Grunts in the first place.I had worked for Raging Stallion previously, so where do they get off now, accusing me of being a “diva”?That is just another one of Chris Ward’s outrageous, unfounded, ridiculous lies that are going around.

I previously have had great experiences in the porn biz, but now it is showing me its ugly side.The owner of Raging Stallion is fabricating total lies about me, for no justifiable reason.Yeah, I left the company because it failed to deliver on its promises to me.Is that a reason to drag my good name through the mud?

While we are at it, debunking Raging Stallions putrid lies, let me clarify another point.Among the reasons Mr. Ward gives for supposedly firing me is that I am “straight.”I have never said that I am straight.And I refuse to be straight-jacketed in anybody else’s definition of my sexuality.I love sex, period, whether with men or women.I could care less what anybody else thinks of my sexuality.And as if my allegedly being “straight” had ever been a problem for Raging Stallion Studios when they were so desperately trying to get me to sign their contract and then so desperately trying to keep me under contract, even though they were giving me insultingly substandard work conditions.I am absolutely not interest in working for a company that has no decency and no honesty.Raging Stallions invents ludicrous lies out of the blue, and I refuse to be a part of it.”

Well, that’s certainly a mouthful, and while I am not disputing anything that Brodie alleges (we were not there when he filmed), I can say firsthand that on the day that we visited the set of Grunts, there was indeed catering (which was quite delicious by the way) and we were given a tour of the resort that they filmed at, including the sleeping quarters for the models. And while I would certainly call it “rustic” (it IS a ranch after all), I don’t know if it would qualify as “tents.” But as I said before, we were not there when Brodie filmed, so we cannot confirm or deny his allegations. I am certain, just as with the Michael Lucas incident, Chris Ward will weigh in further. As always we will keep you posted.
