David Taylor, Austin Wilde Share Raging Stallion ‘Man of the Year’ Award

SAN FRANCISCOBlond heartthrob David Taylor and dark-and-handsome Austin Wilde were named Raging Stallion Studios’ 2010 Men of the Year over the weekend.

The announcement, made Saturday night during the annual Raging Stallion Folsom Street Fair party, represents the first time two Raging Stallion performers have shared the award.

“Both of these men are superstars, and both represent what Raging Stallion is all about: hot, masculine men who enjoy life to the fullest,” studio President Chris Ward said. “David and Austin are top talents, and we at Raging Stallion are proud to have them in our stable of stars.”

The decision this year was a particularly challenging one, he added.

“We have so many talented performers working for us,” Ward said. “Every year it gets harder and harder to make this selection. I almost decided to drop the award, because quite frankly, eight or 10 of our guys could have easily been named Man of the Year.”

Wilde and Taylor were thrilled with the honor.

“I am so honored and surprised to be named Man of the Year in my first break-out year in this business,” said Wilde, who recently wrapped a performance in the sequel to Arabesque, due out later this year. “Raging Stallion has become my home in the short time I have been here, and Chris, Kent [Taylor] and their team have made me feel like family. I am looking forward to exploring all the sides of me that I am sure they will bring out, and to all the exciting things in the year ahead.”

Taylor added, “What an honor it is to be named Man of the Year along with Austin Wilde. It has been such an amazing experience to work with Raging Stallion and all the wonderful and talented people they have. I am Honored to be in the stable with Raging Stallion.”

Taylor co-stars in Focus/ReFocus, due to hit the street over Thanksgiving weekend.

The title of RSS Man of the Year previously has been held by Steve Cruz, Jake Deckard, Michael Brandon, Roman Ragazzi, Shane Rollins, Ricky Sinz and Tom Vacarro.

Both Wilde and Taylor are represented by FabScout Entertainment.
