He died October 30 in Manchester, New Hampshire. Mr. Romero&#8217;s partner, who notified the industry of his passing, told me he passed of \u201cHIV complications; his body just couldn&#8217;t handle everything.\u201d Although quiet in recent years, for a time Joe Romero was one of gay adult&#8217;s most colorful, and prolific, personalities. He made dozens of films between 1994-2006 and carved out an alternative career as a musician as well as an outspoken activist for HIV\/AIDS organizations and the leather community. He is survived by his partner, father and two sisters. Read on for additional details (we&#8217;re working to confirm other pertinent information)\u2026<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u201cI am absolutely devastated. I cannot express the depth of my grief. I knew Joe really well\u2026he starred in MARRIED COPS DO for me and I starred in films with him. I am absolutely obliterated by this news,\u201d said director Blue Blake. \u201cI&#8217;m in shock. How sad. We were all buddies,\u201d helmer Gino Colbert told my colleague, Mark Adams.<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Apart from his prolific adult video career, Joe Romero toured the U.S. and Europe in support of his two CDs, \u201cHeavy Metal Porno Star\u201d and \u201cSexpig\u201d which he self-released on his own label, MotoRock Records. He dubbed himself the \u201cShock Rock Pornstar\u201d and was embraced in particular by the leather community. \u201cHis persona as a hellraiser was his public image,\u201d Mr. Romero&#8217;s partner wrote in his obituary. \u201cPrivately, he volunteered for organizations such as PAWS LA, AIDS Project Los Angeles and The Tom of Finland Foundation. (He) was an uncommon and vibrant spirit. He will be missed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smutjunkies.com\/updates\/wp-content\/zz_art\/PagesArt\/GreyB-Films-he-is-in-450-up.gif\" alt=\"FILMS \" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/join.retromales.com\/gallery\/MTAwNDQuMi45NC4yMDkuMC42MDA5NDYwLjAuMC4w\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img src='https:\/\/films.gayeroticarchives.com\/c\/518\/518855s3.jpg' \/><br \/>\n<strong>FIND THIS MAN: Joe Romero services Sam Houston<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nJoe Romero has Danny Sommers&#8217; number, but can&#8217;t make a connection as the boy wanders off down the street.
