R.I.P. Caleb Carter
Brent Summers called this morning to inform me that our mutual friend, Caleb Carter, was found dead yesterday at his home in San Diego, having hung himself. Carter's mother is identifying the body this afternoon. Caleb Carter loved every minute of being known for his wild antics both on and off camera. A power bottom who loved showing off how much he could take in intense sex scenes, he shot to a more mainstream popularity as a featured reality TV star on the highest rated episode of the MTV series, "Parental Control." He was also an incredibly talented writer, having penned his own short stories and one of the longest running monthly columns for us here at JasonCurious.com for two years.
Caleb was a lot of fun.
He was a good friend and one of the best performers I ever had the pleasure of directing.
I'm going to miss him so much.
UPDATE: There's a little tribute to him up in my "Diary." I'll keep you guys posted here as I get more news though.

Its really heart breaking.. Everyone is so different under the skin. I will miss him too
I'm so sorry to hear that, honey, I know how important he was to you. I remember meeting him and asking you why the hottest guys are always gay! There's my good memory of him. :)

I directed him in a film and we became really close friends. I just spoke to him last week and we had been planning a series of films that he would star in and co-direct. I am so sad to see him go. I will miss him very, very much.
My thoughts are with you Jason. I know he was your friend.
Rest in Peace.
I got to know Ben when he did my documentary Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Gay Porn Stars. He became one of my best friends after the film. I was so horned to have him in my life. I am glad he will always be remembered not only in my film but the other great movies he made. A great wit an amazing writer and just one of the most incredible personalities out there. I just talked to him three days ago he was going to school so this is such an incredible shock. I will always love you Ben...damn you were going to drive me up to San Francisco for the GAVNS. My heart goes out to his family and friends- We lost an incredible human being.
Caleb was an amazing guy, so full of life energy and always up for a good time. No matter what kind of bitchiness was thrown at him he held his own and really seemed to KNOW himself. It's one of those situations where I wish I had known and actually made plans to hang out just one more time, he will be missed by many.
Jason I am truly sorry for you loss. I was so hoping that things were going well for him. It is times like this when you need to be around your friends.
