UPDATE [10:50 p.m.]: Vidal gave AVN the following statement late Friday night: "I'm going to put more stuff than not only hetero stuff on my website, so it's going to be some gay stuff ... and also I'm going to put the [trans] stuff I have also shot for Evil Angel as a director and producer, and it's only to put more stuff on the website, not only hetero. It's to mix everything—there's people who think all these kinds of things don't should be mixed, and I'm totally opposite thinking.
"I think the people who masturbate choose different stuff every time," Vidal continued, "and sometimes they masturbate with gay movies, and maybe they are hetero and nobody knows; or maybe they masturbate with [trans] movies and they don't tell anybody that they like [trans] but they watch [trans] movies. Actually it's the product that I sell the most, and it's people who also watch hetero movies with girls, so these kinds of people are moving up and down in different areas and different websites—here's a gay website, here's a transsexual website, here's a hetero girls website, and the only thing I do is a simple thing really, is just put all my stuff in the same website, and all my stuff is not only hetero.
"I've been producing and directing gay movies also for Evil Angel, and also a lot of [trans] stuff, so that's basically it, what I'm gonna do," he concluded. "Nothing crazy. Just something normal, I think ... normal for the people who masturbate, and I'm just one of them."
[Ed. note: Vidal directed one all-male title in 2005 for Evil Angel, Face Fuckers, in which he performed a solo scene. He also teased the idea of performing a gay scene with 2017's The Player. He has, however, directed dozens of trans titles and performed in at least one, 2003's She-Male Domination Nation.]
CYBERSPACE—Industry icon Nacho Vidal unleashed a piece of potentially explosive news on Twitter Friday afternoon with a brief post and accompanying video clip that would seem to suggest there is gay video content featuring him on the way via his website.
The text of the tweet is in Spanish and roughly translates to "You were waiting for it ... here's one of my greatest pieces of news!" The 16-second video below shows a man appearing to go down on Vidal as he stands at a bar, while another man looks on. The following title card reads "Nacho Vidal Gay Videos" and the url www.nachovidal.com. The link provided in the tweet, however, leads to an inactive page.
This comes after widespread rumors that Vidal was the European performer who tested positive for HIV just over a month ago, prompting a production halt there that at least in some cases is still in effect. Vidal has not publicly confirmed these rumors.
