Hot Happening: Latin Hot Party

 

If you missed the White Party, cheer up. You can get your fill of weekend dancing with beautiful men—not to mention indulge your taste for hot Latin studs—at the Latin Hot Party in Cancun, the largest gay event to take place in Latin America.

A four-day fest of sun, surf, and studs going on Sept. 17-21, the Latin Hot Party brings a high-energy dance party to the white beaches and turquoise waters of Mexico. Renowned DJs from across the country will spin tunes at beach and pool parties with themes like Navy Caribbean Night, while an array of special events (such as a Latin American Gay Art Exhibit and the, um, White Latin Party) will keep folks busy when they’re not shaking their booties. Additionally, attendees will have discounts to several local activities like wine tastings, catwalks and tours. And, for the more sexually adventurous travelers, a 5,000 square-foot “darkroom” will be open every night for your pleasure.

DJs and performers scheduled include Felipe Barrera, DJ Bravat, the Velazquez Brothers, Cajjmere Wray, Tony Moran and Tracy Young. So make your travel plans now. Those Latin go-go boys are waiting!

Hot Hookup Site: MaleMatch.net

Are you tired of the snotty assholes who never respond to your messages on Mancunt Manhunt? Over the user-unfriendly functionality of Adam4Adam? Pissed off that you don't have an iPhone so you can use Grindr? Well, maybe it's time you tried MaleMatch.net, a brand-new hookup/chat site for gay guys that aims to put the fun back in online cruising.

Launched last month, MaleMatch gives users all kinds of unique options, from posting videos and storing all pertinent personal info (no more having to ask, "Hey, what are your stats again?") to "shortcuts" that cut down on all that tiresome back-and-forth messaging that can totally kill your boner. (No more having to write out phone numbers and addresses!) Like DudesNude, MaleMatch requires its members to verify their identity and post a face pic on their profiles (finally—a site that understands that a real man is about a lot more than the size of his pecs and cock), and its emphasis on convenience (there are sections for masseurs, escorts, and porn stars to post profiles and offer services, plus a VOD site to watch porn) makes it a "one-stop shop" for all kinds of sexy-time fun.

According to the site's marketing director, Will Grant, MaleMatch is targeted at today's busy-busy 'mo who wants to get laid without all the hassle. “Everything’s moving so fast, and most gay men are working professionals who really don’t have that much time for nonsense," he says. "Meeting online has become such a common thing, and we are trying to take the bitterness and unpleasantness out of it.”

Hmmm, a hookup site without drama? If MaleMatch can deliver on its promises, we'll take a lifetime subscription!

Hot Happening: LovEvolution '09

I’m the type of guy who thinks circuit parties and raves are lame and would rather spend a month in a torture camp than spend a week in the middle of the desert with thousands of sweaty people for something like Burning Man. So when my buddy Mike drug me along to the San Francisco Love Fest two years ago, I was skeptical. The idea of being around swarms of Burning Man devotees gyrating while on the drug of their choice did not sit well with me. Never in a million years would I have expected to have the time of my life.

It's gettin' hot in here

You may have noticed this little icon/logo thingamabob posted on our story about sexy newcomer David Chase. What's "Hot Week" all about?

Well, to celebrate the release of our history-making August "Hot" issue featuring Margaret Cho and Raging Stallion exclusive Ricky Sinz (on sale on newsstands tomorrow), we're launching "Hot Week" on Unzipped.net. We're picking some of our favorite things—from porn stars and websites to events and gadgets—and spotlighting them on the site this week. It's sort of like the Discovery Channel's "Shark Week," but with, you know, less blood and sharp teeth.

Keep your eyes peeled for this logo!

Hot Newcomer: David Chase

A couple weeks back, we took a little time out from our hectic day of looking at hot porn stars to introduce you to one that we think deserves some extra attention. We're talking, of course, about David Chase, the former RandyBlue model who has now graduated to working with some major DVD production studios.

Now we're well aware that we have a tendency to deliver lots of hyperbole when it comes to certain guys, but in our humble opinion, David Chase is the real deal. He's got a super dirty mind and a heavy exhibitionist streak in front of the camera, but get him on the phone for a conversation and he just turns into a super-sweet shy guy who blushes anytime you pay him a compliment. And then there's that super-8 cock of his. It's like every bottom's dream come true. And that's not to mention his "post-gay" attitude on his bisexuality: He doesn't really care what you label it—if it turns him on, he's gonna do it. How hot is that?

OK, time to stop gushing and get on with it. You can go Below the Belt to check out our gallery of images from David's personal collection. But only after the you read our exclusive interview with him after the jump.
