MIAMI BEACH, Fla.—World of Men owner Collin O’Neal will appear at Jean Franko’s One X Party in Brussels July 10 while he is in Europe visiting family and retailers.
“The last time I was in Belgium visiting my family and filming my Cum Fly with Collin movie, I dropped in by surprise on Jean Franko’s One X Party in Brussels, nearly shocking him,” O’Neal said.
The impromptu appearance worked out well, though, because Franko and his co-producers invited O’Neal back this year. He almost declined after an Israeli raid on aid ships heading for Gaza killed eight people aboard the ships. The incident encouraged O’Neal to come out in support of the Palestinian cause. When he discovered an Israeli company sponsored One X, he had second thoughts about attending.
“I am very pro-Palestinian,” he said. “I’m for an immediate two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and I just do not see such horrible actions [as the raid] helping the situation. One of my Facebook fans pointed out that they would not attend the One X Party because an Israeli company, G-lad, is a sponsor of the event. [The fan] told me I should pull out, considering my boycott and stance against Israel.”
In the end, he said economics and reason won out.
“Israel lifted a ban on some ridiculous items for import into Gaza, and G-lad is just a minor sponsor of the event,” he said. “You won’t catch me wearing [G-lad’s] underwear though.”
O’Neal said the One X Party will coincide with the re-launch of the re-designed WorldOfMen.com site powered by MyGayCash.
