Tom Katt not returning to porn

In February 2006, retired porn legend Tom Katt spoke to Dallas Voice about how he always struggled with bisexuality, eventually found God, got married and entered a Florida seminary.

Katt, who now goes by his birth name David Papaleo, had a profound message for gays and lesbians that God loves them the way they are; and he hoped to spread a message to counter anti-gay fundamentalists. Papaleo is also a competitive bodybuilder who does “flex for faith” posedowns.

Last week, however, porno super-agent David Forest sent an e-mail blitz, promoting Tom Katt for “personal training” and “live appearances.”

Was Tom Katt going back in the biz?

This week, I e-mailed Papaleo (a sweetheart), who assured me he’s not making a comeback. He’s just promoting his online training: DavidPapaleo.com.
