Romeo Fink (born 21 December 1985), better known as Topher DiMaggio, is an American gay pornographic film actor.

Early and personal life

[edit]

Topher was born and raised in Hawaii.[1][2] He is half-Italian and half-Irish.[3]

At the age of 17, Topher became an Abercrombie & Fitch model. He also modelled for Maserati and Nordstrom.[4] He is a hip-hop dancer as well.[5]

Career

[edit]

In 2007, Topher made his pornographic debut with a solo video.[6]

He has worked with numerous studios viz. Randy Blue, Falcon Studios, Jet Set Men, Dominic Ford, Lucas Entertainment, Raging Stallion Studios, CockyBoys, etc.[7], winning the "Hottest Top" award at the Grabby Awards in 2014.[8]

In 2016, he played the role of Superman in Men.com's gay porn parody of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,[9] titled Batman v Superman: A Gay XXX Parody, which was the Best Porn Parody winner at the 2017 Cybersocket Awards.[10]

He has also starred in a documentary called Studlebrity (2016), which follows young men who have become celebrities only because of their looks.[11]

As a model, DiMaggio started working with Andrew Christian in 2013,[5] and became the face of the underwear line as their "Trophy Boy". He was named a FleshJack Boy in 2017.[12]

Rape and sexual assault allegations

[edit]

In 2018, gay porn actor Tegan Zayne accused co-star DiMaggio of rape in a #MeToo post.[13] Four other men came forward with their own allegations of sexual misconduct against DiMaggio, including YouTuber Bryan Hawn.[14][15][16]

DiMaggio denied these allegations; however, he was placed on indefinite suspension by Andrew Christian,[17] while FleshJack dissolved its relationship with him.[18]
