Scott Sewperman RIP

[seaguy]

Just learned that bareback porn star and escort Scott Sewperman died after having a heart attack in the shower yesterday morning. He was dating Peto Coast too. Sad...

I was just looking at his BBRT profile a couple days ago.

Heart attack at a young age almost always means drugs. People, drugs are killing us way more than HIV.

Some speculate steroids which i could see, but I have not and don't see that her might have been a crystal meth user as some on Facebook have speculated.

Thanks for sharing this information here. I'm sad to hear of SS passing. I agree with RawTop, meth seems like a scourge on the gay community worse than AIDS was in the 80's or 90's.

So sad. I hope we'll find out what happened.

I agree with RawTop, meth seems like a scourge on the gay community worse than AIDS was in the 80's or 90's.

IMHO, HIV/AIDS in the 80's and early 90s was worse than meth today. But ARVs took most of the lethal punch out of HIV.

According to Gay Porn Blog:

New York-based Sewperman (real name: Scott Brewster) studied film and design at Parsons School of Design before going on to perform for bareback studios including Dark Alley Media, Treasure Island and others. Sewperman, (@AmericanJockBoy on twitter), had recently teamed up with gay porn star Peto Coast (who he was also dating) to form their own gay porn production company.

According to a friend close to Scott, the apparent cause of death was a heart attack, although we have no official confirmation of this or any further news at this time.

The author of the Gay Porn Blog post posted this update in the comment section of the above article:

Hey guys, I want to stop speculation on what caused his death, because no one knows and (hidden in a lot of these) are moral judgements. I’ll update as I get more information, but the truth is, he could have been hit by a car. If that were the case, how many of us would be speculating on his lifestyle, the wiseness of his life choices or the Problem with Porn Stars? Not many.

For that reason, I’m going to limit discussion on this to actual memorials, unless there’s someone who can speak to Scott’s life with any degree of clarity.

I hired Scott for a fun session last January. He was a hot bb fuck, we had a good time. But he was smoking meth, and I got the sense he did a lot of it.

A great guy, fun, and I wish he was still around, but its clear: meth is really bad stuff, and its destroying too many lives.

I hope the guys who posted about hints on slamming read your post... meth = devil

Scott's obituary confirms that the cause of death is cardiac failure.

The following is from the obituary:

(Note: I have chosen to not post the complete obituary out of respect for his family's privacy; instead I share selected highlights. If you want to read the full obit then Google is your friend)

Scott Robert Brewster passed away suddenly of cardiac failure on Sept. 21, 2013 at his home in New York City.

Scott was born in Livingston, N.J., and graduated with honors from Westfield High School in 2001, where he was known for his theater performances. He received a bachelors in fine arts with honors in 2004 from Parsons the New School for Design in New York City. Scott was a web designer and motion graphic artist.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the American Heart Association.

I just think it is rude to do like some of the haters as I would call them have done and commented on his FB profile things like "it was tina". How the fuck do they know that? To me they are just gossipy nasty queens who know that Scott is not around anymore to defend himself. If your going to make an accusation like that then you damn well better have something to back it up and share what that is otherwise your just a nasty hater who get's off on speaking ill of the dead.

This is how...

I'm sorry but donations to the American Heart Association when the problem was meth? Seems to me the family is ignoring the 600 lb gorilla in the room.

Bottom line in my opinion is that it does no one any good to pretend we don't have a meth problem in the gay community. But unlike the AIDS crisis there's almost no one addressing our community's meth problem. I've poked around a little and tried to find someone - saying I'll give them all the free advertising space they want in my chem sex section - no takers. There's a few people here and there doing (very) good work. But it's just a few people - there's no one working on a national or international level.

It is really troublesome that one of the only "anti-meth" "campaigns" in the world of gay sex appears to be nothing more than a way for a convicted felon to make money selling t-shirts to the masses. The fact that the allegedly "clean" person who started and runs this "campaign" does nothing to help others with the revenue generated by the t-shirts he pushes; it simply goes into the guy's bank account. Yet the convicted felon who runs the scheme is the darling performer of the mainstream porn industry. It's quite sad.

Thanks rawTOP for getting straight to the point here (seriously no pun intended). Noting that Scott was felled by meth use does not dishonor him in any way. Does not imply moral bankruptcy... It was something he did, and enjoyed. My hope is that he didn't feel trapped in it.

As a community we need to acknowledge that meth has a downside. Aside from watching handsome young men die early, what are we going to do? Or are we enmeshed in the notion "live fast, die young and leave a good looking corpse" as our community mantra?

People lie though. Now if there was a photo or video of thier tryst I might be inclined to believe but otherwise I don't just beleive what someone posts online, there are some viscious queens out there so someone posting false information would not surprise me. I had a friend here in Seattle who is into older guys but was not into one in particulalr so the spurned dude who is 62 and is so addicted to meth he is paranoid that the police are following him and stuff. Well to get back at my friend he posted signs on the telephone poles of Capital Hill the gay area with two photos of my friend and my friends full name accusing my friend of having drugged, raped and filmed it all at STeamworks over the 4th of July weekend, mind you the flyers went up a month later. He listed and email and reward of 1000 if anyone could help bring closure by contacting him if they were there that night and knew anything. I snatched the one I saw down and sent it to my friend who said it was fake the guy was an addict and ended up walking around to take the others I saw down and my friend turned them over to the police and the guy admitted to posting them to get revenge on my friend for spurning his advances. My friend works as a realator so that could have ruined his career but thankfully he lives outside of Seattle. But anyway the point I am trying to make is people will lie. Not saying that patrickdcdupont is, but I don't take somneone on just thier word when they post something like that online.

Meth is also a problem in the straight community, especially in rural areas here on the west coast. It's been around Seattle for 20 years that I have lived here and has been a problem in the gay community but if it'sd not meth it's alcohol, tobacco, Ectasy, drugs cycle through every few years the only real solution is llegalize, and tax it so that those needing treatment for addiction can get it because the taxes fund those beds right now people without insurance can't get treatment which is why there are so many homeless tweakers. Of if they are able to get wait listed it can take months before they find a bed at a treatment center.
