Never in a million years did I ever think I would be where I am today. I was born and raised in a small town named Hobbs, New Mexico. I was quiet and shy growing up; I mainly kept to myself with the exception of getting pretty crazy with my friends from time to time. I used to run varsity cross country at one point and play the trumpet in band, which quite frankly, I sucked at. haha. I was very open about me being gay. They gay community in my old town wasn’t very big, and the people who were gay there were always so dramatic. So I just stayed with my little group of friends and did our own thing. I also worked at the local Quiznos for almost a year and a half; i loved working there. Even on my days off, me and my best friend would be up there just kickin it with our other friends. haha. I lived there right up until last summer, where on June 16th, 2008, I made my first major life change; I moved to the big city of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
I used the move to my advantage; this was my chance at a new start of life for me. I was in a new town, I had clean slate, and this was gonna be my new life. I was gonna make sure that I was gonna use this opportunity wisely; to become the person I had always wanted to be. Coming to this town was like nothing I had ever experienced; there were so many gay people there and it seemed like there was always something to do. And the best thing they had there; the underage gay club. On any given weekend, you would see most of the teenage gay community just partying there. I thought this place was the shit. I quickly got a job at the nearest Quiznos, and I was on my way to starting my new life as an Oklahoman. The summer went by pretty fast. I was meeting new people, trying new things and just living my life overall. By the end of the summer, I had met some people that were my new clique. We were all hanging out 24/7 and on any given day, you would have probably seen us together. These were my new best friends, and in turn, my new life. Im not gonna lie, we had some pretty good times that I will always remember for the rest of my life, but after a while, things took a turn for the worst. Our group had slowly began to break up, and we all stared going our own ways. I moved out of my house and got my first apt with my first roommate around mid-october. By then, I had already switched jobs, and I was working as an electronic salesman at Sears. The first few months were okay. Just working and hanging out with my two best friends. But by the time last Christmas rolled around, thats when things stared to change again; my life was changing once again. Friendships were broken and made and I had made some decisions that I most definitely wish I could go back and change.
By this time it was late January and I had already moved into my second apt. I was still at Sears and I was just living life; partying on the weekends and just kickin it with my two best friends. But by the end of January, one of my best friends moved away…which absolutely devastated me. But i still pushed on; determined to remain strong. February was an indifferent month; kind of a weird month. But that’s the month that changed my life, FOREVER. After my best friend had moved to Oklahoma City with me, it was her and my other best friend and we were just sitting at my apt one Saturday night and we were talking about doing porn and how cool it would be to get into something like that. Well I had remembered seeing something about a “be a model” link on this one gay porn website, and me being the only one who was 18 at the time, I applied at every single gay porn site I could find on the internet. The following Monday my email and my phone had seriously gotten blown up from different companies from all over the United States. And one of the first companies to contact me was FlavaWorks, based out of Miami, Florida.
The company had contacted me and asked me if I wanted to come down the following Thursday and try everything out. Immediately I had agreed, and the next Thursday I was on the first plane down to Miami, Florida. I had a layover flight at Houston Int’l Airport and at 9:15pm on Thursday, February 26th, 2009, I started yet another new chapter in my life, Cody McCart: Adult Film Actor.
I was only there for a mere five days. And in those five days, I did two shoots and one show. The first shoot I did was a solo video and photoshoot. And let me tell you, I WAS TERRIFIED! This was my first time doing anything like this and I had no clue what I was supposed to do. But thankfully I got through it and I got the job done. I remember telling myself, “That was actually pretty fun!” Then the next day, I had my first one on one shoot. This was it; my first actual porn video. I remember walking in there and telling myself, “This is it. Your time to shine.” haha. I was the bottom for this cute cuban boy and we went at it. At first I was nervous as hell. But further and further into the video, I became more comfortable; not only with myself but in front of the camera. It was at that time I knew where my calling was. I wanted to be a porn star.
After the five days passed, I was on my way back to Oklahoma City to return to my normal life; well, at least for a while. I was only gonna be back home for a short two weeks and then I was back on the go. Two days before I was due back in Miami to shoot wit FlavaWorks, I was up in Chicago shooting with Citiboyz. I did two shoots up there; a three-some video and a solo; which both of them turned out quite well I might add. I flew back to OKC on the night of the 19th and on the 20th of March, I was to fly back to Miami.
I got into Miami the night of the 20th and the next day, March 21st, I was on my way to Orlando, Florida, for Erotica; a small gay porn convention/party. That night of the party was insane. Different people kept coming up to our booth and kept asking for autographs and asked to take pictures with us and all kinds of stuff. It was like nothing I had ever experienced; I felt like a movie star or something. After that, we came back to Miami, where I had done a few more shoots and shows. In my off time, I was either at the office or just kickin it back at the dorm. They were pretty fun times. But then came the trip to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
