COLT Man Elian Cortez Nabs Mainstream Coverage For COLT Studio

COLT Studio Group has been getting a lot of mainstream attention ever since it was reported online that American Gladiators' Alex Castro once worked for the studio as Elian Cortez ...

Ever since the media announced Alex was a COLT Man at one point ... COLTStudioGroup.com received an unexpected amount of visitors ... the site was temporarily shut down by the massive amount of traffic ...

John Rutherford (COLT Studio Group President): "We had so much traffic from it in such a short amount of time that our servers crashed. We're still receiving a high volume of traffic, but we've made changes to our system to take on the online demand. [Cortez's] photography is not scandalous and very tasteful as all COLT Men photography is. We have not survived 40 years as a gay lifestyle brand for nothing and our men as well as all our products are high-quality and well respected."

Alex was photographed for the "Butt Beautiful" 2003 calendar ... and also appears on a bunch of COLT branded novelties ... such as playing cards ...

John Rutherford: "As Playboy is to Pamela Anderson, so is COLT for Alex Castro in a nutshell. Jim French shot many hot, muscular men over the last few decades and as the all-male leader in masculine erotica, Elian's photos speak for themselves."
