Porn lovers across the globe are coming to terms with the sad news that French porn star François Sagat has retired from porn.
He announced the bombshell in a brief video shot in front of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle at Disneyland Park in Paris, which he posted on his personal blog. “Hello, I’m François Sagat and from this day forward I’ve retired from porn,” he says in the 16 second video, that starts in black-and-white and reverts to colour as he finishes his sentence and looks thoughtfully into the distance. Sagat explains in the blog post that because he’s been so busy working on different projects, he’s not had the time to update his website. “I do not plan to make porn again,” he wrote. ”No regrets. Just new goals.”
Born in 1979, Sagat is best known for his scalp tattoo. As well as starring in countless porn films, he’s also appeared at times as a fashion model and landed cinematic roles in films including Saw VI, the sixth instalment of the Saw film series directed by Kevin Greutert, and lead roles in L.A. Zombie, directed by Bruce LaBruce, where he plays the role of a homeless schizophrenic who believes he’s an alien zombie, and roams the streets of Los Angeles trying to bring the dead back to life by engaging in homosexual sex, and Homme au bain (Man in Bath) in which he plays the role of Emmanuel, a gay hustler living with his lover.
Mind you, this is the second time Sagat has retired from the adult industry… so watch this space.
