His real name is Joe Mannetti however many of you know him as Joe Falconi (photo - courtesy of Lee Friend of Talk Magazine) . He has been the heartthrob to many a Bear lover as he's appeared in quite a few photo shoots, magazines and Bear movies. You might even remember seeing him for a few seconds on Conan O'Brien (altho much to the dislike of CyberBears).

Well Joe has been a very busy Bear of late, especially with the ton of work he puts into the GLBT community. You should check out this article on The Complete Bear (website - profile) to see all the things he has been up as well as all the things he'll be doing.

Oh - he also just won the Mr. Los Angeles Bear '08 title held by BearsLA at Oil Can Harry's last September 13th. A huge congratulations goes to him.

On a personal note, I have always found Joe super duper cute ever since I first saw his photos on BearBound (preview pics of Joe - articles - profile). There's something about him that just captures your eye... and keeps it focused on him. I'm sure we'll be hearing more from him in the upcoming future.

If you are a connoisseur of Bear porn, then you have surely heard of Joe Falconi (larger pic). He's done several photo shoots for guys like BearBound and CyberBears, and he even had a minute of fame when his face showed up on Conan O'Brien (article here). Now if you want to know a little more about this very handsome man, well the good folks over at The Complete Bear (TubeBear PRO profile) recently held an interview with Joe. Go check it out here.

It seems that CyberBears did not find it funny when they found that a clip from one of their movies was used as a gag on the Conan O'Brien show. From CyberBears: "Here's an interesting twist on the new public acceptance of porn. We here at CyberBears, LLC were recently made aware that an establishing scene from one of our copyrighted adult DVD titles was used this past week on the Conan O'Brien show. We had not been informed of this use, nor asked for permission to use the clip, so we investigated further.

It appears that, during an interview broadcast on the July 18th '07 episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Adam Sandler introduced a clip of two men sharing an apple as a scene from his new movie. It was actually a clip of two of our performers, Joe Falconi and Ali, from a copyrighted adult video titled 'Feed the Bears', directed by Ken Slater, and released in '06 by CyberBears, LLC.

All of our DVD's clearly indicate that they are only licensed and sold for in-home viewing by consenting adults. The notion of broadcasting a portion of one of our adult movies over open network television violates the spirit of the legal and ethical guidelines our company follows to shield our content from inappropriate viewers.

Of course, we are also concerned about protecting our copyrighted materials. We were surprised that neither the performers, the director, nor the company were credited.

We do understand very well the legal notion of fair use as it applies to copyrighted material used for reporting, satire, and public interest media. We believe that NBC's inappropriate use of clearly labeled adult content in violation of the stated terms, their misrepresentation of the content presented, and their failure to credit the actual source, all exceeded their rights".

Check out the longer intro  or the shorter intro to Adam Sandler introducing his new movie, and here's a blog from one of the guys who watches pornos for a living. Lastly, CyberBears wishes you to comment so go here for all their contact info.
