Gay Porn Star Josh Weston Dies of HIV-Related Complications

SAN FRANCISCO — Gay porn star Josh Weston has died from HIV-related complications, according to TheSword.

Weston, 39, worked exclusively for Falcon Studios before appearing in features for Hot House, Colt and Channel 1 Releasing.

Officials at Falcon and Hot House confirmed his passing yesterday morning, TheSword said.

Weston, 39, began his career as a dancer at the Nob Hill Theater in San Francisco, and later was discovered there by Chi Chi LaRue.
