ROHNERT PARK, Calif.—In an announcement earlier today made from the offices of Next Door Entertainment, popular bisexual star Tommy D announced his retirement. After almost a decade at the forefront of the adult world, the veteran, award-winning star announced that he will stop performing and filming this month.
Commenting on his retirement, Tommy D. said, “It was a difficult decision to leave something that I have enjoyed so much. But after nine years there comes a time when your priorities change. This decision to retire was made to give me more time to focus on the other things I love in my life, including my other full-time job in the construction sector.
“This has been an exciting chapter in my life. I cannot believe how quickly ten years have gone by,” the performer continued. “The people that I have worked with and become friends with in this industry over the years have all made it very worthwhile and memorable. And what has made it even more special are the loyal fans that have followed my career and encouraged me over the years. With this chapter closing I'm looking forward to the future and what my next chapter will bring."
Tommy D. confirmed during his announcement that while he is retiring from performing, the entire collection of video work that he has filmed over the years will remain available through his membership site, TommyDXXX.com.
Said Stephan Sirard, president of Next Door Entertainment, "This is a bittersweet day for all of us here at Next Door Studios. We are all sad to see Tommy retiring, but we are also very grateful for all of his great work and professionalism over the years. He is indeed a very special and rare find in this industry. All of us wish him the very best as he embarks on the next chapter in his life.”
Sirard went on to say, “Tommy D defined the bisexual adult star. He genuinely enjoyed performing with both women and guys and was popular with everyone. His personality and sexuality shone through for everyone to see. I believe that accounts for the longevity of his adult career. It is very rare to find someone who remains so popular ten years on.”
Over the years Tommy D was featured on the cover of five magazines, won four awards and filmed almost 300 scenes with Next Door.
The popular star concluded his retirement announcement by saying, "I don't feel like this is the end of anything. I hope that the mark I've made on the adult film industry will continue to inspire and motivate those that follow to forge their own path and follow their hearts. I've not only been a performer but also a fan of porn for all my adult life and I can't wait to see what the next generation of young stars has in store for us. Good luck to all of you and thank you so much for all the support. Stay horny!”
