The man in a gay video
that was mistaken for Lloyd Banks has come forward to clear the rapper’s
name and effectively end the notion the Banks starred in the flick.
Ty Lattimore, 28, has appeared in over 25 pornographic movies. He said he was
a fan of Banks and that such a mistake has never happened before.
“I feel bad for him and I think its sad how people are so quick to spread
rumors without all the info,” Lattimore told AllHipHop.com. “Its crazy
how this has blown up and how folks have put him out there like that. Now I am
catching heat.”
Lattimore said the movie clip circulating is of him and a model named “Mocha”
in a flick called “Bam 2.”
Despite a strong
denial through his representatives, the rumor continued to have legs, spreading
across internet message boards and chat rooms. Other sources with AllHipHop.com have validated Lattimore’s claims prior to him commenting on the rumor.
The adult movie
actor, who favors the sounds of Shyne, Petey Pablo and Kanye West, said he came
forward to help end the rumor, not to boost his career.
“I am already
a p### star for those who watch gay p###,” Lattimore said. “I would
hope that if the shoe was on the other foot, someone else would step up and
be a man and handle their business. He is a rapper and that is his thing. Being
a p### star and model is mine. Thanks for letting me try to clear this up, but
some folks will believe what they want to believe anyway.”
