The Real World's Dustin Zito on His Gay Porn Past

Dustin Zito, part of the MTV show's current cast, kept his gay porn past a secret from his roommates until this week's episode. Andy Dehnart talked to Zito and the show's producers.

Real World house—a suite in the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas—is Dustin Zito. He is a 24-year-old from Louisiana whose MTV bio says that he "grew up with a bi-polar, drug addicted mom and an abusive step-dad." But it is the part of his bio that says he was "a cast member on a website that featured an uncensored look at a house of attractive guys living together" that has earned the most attention.

</figcaption> </figure> MTV's language conceals the fact that Dustin did gay porn: Performing as "Spencer" on
FratMen ("erotic nude jackoff porn"), he masturbated and engaged in oral sex in two videos. On its sibling site
Fratpad ("straight frat boys in sizzling hot chat and webcam shows"), Dustin had sexual contact with other men, and gave and received anal sex with another man in a live pay-per-view show.
Considering the overlap between porn and reality TV and the proliferation of amateur porn sites, it was probably inevitable that the show would cast someone who'd had sex for money. Equally inevitable is the MTV audience's ability to find Dustin's porn past.
The surprising part has been the response: In Wednesday night's episode, Dustin's
Real World girlfriend expressed her disgust and his roommates shunned him.
Dustin, who's 24 and identifies as straight ("When I close my eyes to masturbate, I think of a girl"), is actually unembarrassed by the gay-for-pay work he did when he was 19. "I'm not ashamed of what I did. It doesn't define me or who I am," he told The Daily Beast, sounding more thoughtful and intelligent than he sometimes comes across on TV.
When the truth came out, "Nobody in the house, not one person, was like, 'Who cares?' I wanted that," Dustin said.
But no one in his life knew what he'd done. Dustin said he asked himself, "Why am I so scared? I didn't hurt anybody, I didn't do anything wrong." When a family friend's connection to the casting department at Bunim-Murray, the company that produces
The Real World, gave him the opportunity to have his life taped for several months, Dustin thought the show "would be a tool I could use to get it out," he said. "I would never have to tell anybody again."
During the casting process, producers warned him.
Real World executive producer Jim Johnston told me he said, "'You realize, Dustin, that you're talking about this on camera. You're aware of that, right?' We do want people to be aware when they do this that there's no privacy."
The show's co-creator Jon Murray previously told me that he liked Dustin's story because "whether it's that particular story, having done one of these voyeuristic websites, or some other mistake someone's made in life," that "how to move on is a really important story for our audience."
Yet when Dustin arrived in the
Real World house, he found himself paralyzed with the same fear of judgment that had struck him at home. "It was scary to tell and I wanted everyone to learn about me first," he told me. While he'd intended to tell Heather, the cast member with whom he was having a relationship, he balked, "just like had happened time and time before with various family members." He said later, "When people find out about [the sex scene], their whole world changes about me. They just freakin' lose it. I'm a totally different person. I'm the devil."
Johnston said producers were "a little surprised by how long he waited to talk about it." But they also knew "it might never come out. It's not like we required it."
In the end, Dustin waited too long to tell his roommates. Instead, that revelation "was taken from me," he said. These are consequences of the Internet: When the show was filming last fall, Dustin was identified by a message board, and the connection to his work in porn was immediately made. Thus, Googling Dustin resulted in evidence of his porn past, which people outside of the house found and then told the cast, who then went online and saw confirmation. The drama that resulted unfolded on this week's episode of the show, which began airing Wednesday night.

Lying, Dustin told me, is "one of the things that I do. Ah! I don't know why I do that. I get so scared," he said. When the truth came out, "Nobody in the house, not one person, was like, 'Who cares?' I wanted that," he said. "Everybody in the house kind of shunned me. ... I was kind of hoping and praying that someone in the house would be like, 'It doesn't matter.' But nobody took that role."
