Facing forty, porn star Colton Ford decides to leave the industry and return to his true calling — a singing career. He’s definitely got the voice, but will his "overexposed" past be the hook that gets him noticed or the hook that yanks him off stage? Naked Fame follows Colton and his loving life-partner, the porn mega-star Blake Harper, as they try to ease their way back into the mainstream. There’s plenty of salacious "life of a porn star" footage and terrific interviews with Chi Chi LaRue, Bruce Vilanch, dance club divas like Pepper Mashay and Lonnie Gordon, and the two most supportive parents you’ll ever meet. But underlying it all is a harrowing Faustian tale of Colton turning his career — and his soul — over to a sleazy ex-porn star/pseudo-record producer who uses them to feed his insatiable ego. Watching Colton, with Blake’s teeth-baring help, escape from this muscle-bound Mephistopheles is the most satisfying part of this captivating documentary. Ultimately, Naked Fame is a story about a man who loves his art and loves his mate, and does the best he can to honor them both. And really, who can’t relate to that?
