Dude, you asked for an honest answer, and they're giving it to you. From what I know, the porn industry has changed. There was a day when the guys could get away with being out-of-shape. That's the era Ron Jeremy comes from.

But that era is gone. These days, even male porn stars have to be in good shape. Have you watched any porn lately? A lot of the guys look like gym rats. They have bodies like athletes.

Also, a heads-up. In the straight porn world, the guys don't make much money and it is the women who call the shots. This is why many guys go into gay porn instead of straight porn. But gay porn is about youth and being INCREDIBLY in shape. You are considered old in the gay porn world by the time you turn 25.

I personally have nothing against guys who aren't ripped. I'm not insulting overweight people. I'm just saying that generally speaking incredibly fit guys are what is wanted in the porn industry, and if you have any place in it as an overweight guy then it will indeed be in a "niche" aspect of it.

My personal advice would be to get a real job. The porn world is a dangerous world: disease and drugs are just the beginning. Plus, it's exploitative. I've heard that males often get paid "per cum shot," that is, no royalties. I've heard that when all is said and done, a male porn star is living at the poverty level.

It's a good fantasy. I think all guys have had this fantasy. But some things are better left as fantasy.

The most important considerations for male pornstars (across all fetishes, kinks, and genres) is their ability to get hard on queue, remain hard during the entirety of fucking (which is almost nothing like actual sex... it more closely resembles a normal film set, which I can, from experience, assure you is a HUGE turn-off, and the ability to cum nearly on-demand. A decent-sized penis, at least average looks, and an alright body are next for mediocre-grade pornstars, with high-paid and most-often-viewed pornstars being built, attractive, and hung (at least 7.5" ;long and fairly thick [and of course, these are overall generalizations, not exacts]). If you can meet all of the previously mentioned criteria, then there is a chance that there is-- if not in mainstream vanilla porn-- some niche or sub-genre that one can be accepted into... if you play your cards properly (it is often recommended for males aspiring to "break into" the hetero porn biz to bring with them a willing female who will also perform)...
Phew....
