Matthew Montgomery

I could write a verbose article about all of the antics and chaos that ensued in 2009, but that would just deter us all from watching the MASH-UP Video.

HAPPY HOMO NEW YEAR from HOMOPOP! Peace on Earth ya'll. Thank you to all of our loyal supporters for following us throughout the year. 2010 is already shaping up to be balls-out fabulous. Here's a sneak preview: Queer Idol (Dwayne and Al think they are on the show of American Idol with Adam Lambert), MORE of Matthew Montgomery and an exclusive interview with............... JANE LYNCH! And that's just in January.

Love ya. Mean it!

NO WHALES IN WALES…

I recently had the honor of attending the Iris Prize Film Festival in Cardiff, Wales. And by recently I mean two months ago. To call me a procrastinator would not only be a sad understatement of truth, but a welcomed compliment as far as I’m concerned. As the old saying goes - It’s not easy being me. Who said that? Rodney Dangerfield I think. Listen, being an actor is HARD (We are keeping it clean since it's the holidays and all.) Constantly having to look pretty, spending endless hours in front of the mirror practicing my winning smile, checking my star meter rank on IMdb on a daily basis to make sure I haven’t dipped below the 20,000 mark. HARD, I tell you. (Ok, I couldn't resist the second time around.)

Where was I?… right - Wales. So I get this call from overseas one day—actually it was an email, but getting a phone call from overseas sounds much more important, so phone call it is. So I get this "phone call" from some guy with a funny accent who asks if I want to skip over the pond (that’s what they call it), and take a trip over to Cardiff, Wales as part of the Jury of the Short Film Selection, an award and prize that is actually pretty incredible and is one of the few these days whose primary agenda is promoting up and coming short filmmakers. Incidentally, one of the films I’m in this year, Redwoods, (directed by David Lewis) was part of their Feature Film Selection, competing for the feature film award alongside some other great works including, Hollywood je t’aime (directed by Jason Bushman), The Big Gay Musical (directed by Casper Andreas and Fred Caruso), Highly Strung (directed by Sophie Laloy), Give Me Your Hand (directed by Pascal-Alex Vincent), and Fiona’s Script (directed by Florencia Manovil).

So I went. No shit, right? Free trip to Wales. All the attention and alcohol I want for a week? Count me in.

When I arrived, I was a bit stunned at the false advertisement of the city’s name. There wasn’t ONE whale is ALLLLLL of Wales, and trust me, I looked. Also, EVERYONE was driving on the wrong side of the road! And somehow, they’ve managed to get away with roping everyone in on it. Someone really needs to tell them. Looks pretty dangerous to me. I thought by my not driving, I’d escape this crazy, backwards road insanity. Nope. Being a pedestrian isn’t any better. In fact it might even be worse. I almost got run over by a honking car driving on the wrong side of the road at least twice a day. I counted. By day two, I was beginning to feel like I was playing a reality show version of Frogger.

Other than the crazy drivers, and mediocre plumbing, (and the lack of whales in Wales), the rest of the trip was pretty spectacular. Redwoods even won BEST FEATURE - and I only had to blow one person to get it!

DEBUTANTE

I was recently blindsided by the discovery that … wait for it … there is actually a Matthew Montgomery film (my very very FIRST film as a matter of fact) that hasn’t been distributed yet. I know, folks. I gasped just as loud when I heard this preposterous news myself. It was like finding out that Gerard Butler was gay-ish all over again. In case you missed that Gerard reference cause you were living under a rock - or in my case hung over under a rock - then here you go. Your welcome. There was also an article evidently claiming this was false, how convenient, but being the good gay that I am, I’m not posting that one. (If you’re a party pooper, you can go Google it yourself.)

Actually, what he supposedly regurgitates is "I have been in relationships with women. And men. That doesn't make me gay. That doesn't make me straight." Well, at least he got that last part right. Before you start throwing stones (or glitter), I’m well aware of that part of the population who seem to think they’re “bisexual.” Personally, I think they’re just greedy. And awfully indecisive... like John Kerry. READ MORE

Robby O was so excited when I gave him the assignment to interview Matthew Montgomery during the his recent trip to the 2009 Philadelphia Qfest that he basically called off of work for a couple of weeks to to wat every movie and webisode he has been in like Back Soon, Socket and even Gone But Not Forgotten. I don't know how he did it, but he even got bootleg copies of Redwoods (2nd feature from director David Lewis) and David Kitteridge's Pornography (we mention this little gem before) before it screened during the festival. Hey, I wasn't going to ask because if it makes for a better interview. Anyway, Robby basically found the poor soul hung over by a tree. But like a good HOMOPOP soldier, he honed in on his target and attacked.... And this is what we captured.

So as you can see, this is how we get big stars to write for us. Who's next?

Hello suckers! Welcome to Matthew Montgomery’s very first blog with the fashionably risqué site, HOMOPOP. If this is anything like that diary I tried keeping a few years ago, you’ll soon find this blog covered in cobwebs and an inch thick layer of dust with illegible scribbles on the first three pages, dried drool spots dotting the bottom corners, with my passed out/drunk naked body next to it... ( kind of like this.) Wish me luck. I’m fairly confident I’ve turned over a new leaf though, and am thrilled to be asked here as a contributor, especially since it gives me another opportunity to talk about my favorite subject on Earth - me. Thanks for reading. You’ll be sorry. READ MORE

It must have taken a lot out of me, being in the US... It seems that hanging with party animals like Keeneye and Matthew Montgomery has taken its toll on this poor London lad and I have been unable to get more than a couple of hours sleep every night since. This leads, of course, to many more hours to fill in a day, and discoveries of many fascinating internet nooks and crannies. Last night, around 4am, I stumbled upon The World According To and what a fascinating forum they have! Never before have I seen so much male celebrity peen in the one handy place... Of course, we are all familiar with Brad Pitt and Jude Law’s appendage, but this site goes further... how about a close up of Jake Gyllenhaal’s shorts while he is surfing? Video of Mr. Harry Potter performing naked in Equus anyone? And why does Prince William hold his cock like that when he is peeing? It’s just odd isn’t it? Did the butler teach him to do that? It must have been a trick... and how long does someone have to be dead before a look at their peen is OK again? Is it ever? Heath Ledger or John Lennon anyone? The list is endless! As it turns out, however, counting cock worked no better than counting sheep for me. Maybe it’s time to stop counting entirely and just get totally drunk before I hit the pillow. Yes, that’s the plan for tonight.

What the fuck have we been doing you ask? Well, we've been running around the City of Brotherly Love like a couple of crazy bandits kickin' it with fabulous fags like Chad Allen and this awesome Adrian Brody look-alike Eric Debets who starred with Chad in this sweet, sexy film Hollywood je t'aime.

Then I heard rumors that Robby O sneak attacked cutie-pie Matthew Montgomery in the park and apparently filmed it! Matt is attending Philadelphia Qfest for the 2 films he stars in: David Kittredge's David Lynch-esque Pornography and the endearing drama Redwoods. I can't to see the footage!

Also Cam Buckingham - our snarky Aussie - is in town from the UK and there are rumors that Keeneye Reeves is running around town too! I can't believe she crawled out of her porn hole, but hopefully we can capturing him on camera too! So boys... stay tuned for our whacky and wild coverage, but if you are Jones-ing for some info, our good friends at Phillygaycalendar.com has been all over it - and tweeting about it! So get out from under a rock and get to Philadelphia Qfest yo! (and because I am a social networking whore... follow up on twitter too and if you are lucky; we will follow you.

I just posted my review for what is certainly one of the most romantic gay films ever, Redwoods. Starring hot gay actor Matthew Montgomery, the film tells the story of a powerful love that burned bright. I felt the power of this film from a rough cut -- I can't wait till this summer to see it on the big screen for our festival, Philadelphia QFest. It's going to hit the summer gay film festival circuit before a fall DVD release from TLA Releasing.
