Reality News Online has come up with Shane Powers sordid past. As outlined below, Shane had a major role in an unrated soft porn movie about gay and bisexual customers to his record shop in LA. The following is an article explaining Shanes various acting roles:
Survivor: Panama Shane Powers Acting Past Uncovered
by David Bloomberg -- 01/10/2006
While new Survivor contestant Shane Powers doesnt have it listed on his official CBS bio, RealityNewsOnline has discovered that he has been an occasional actor, appearing in several films and TV shows. What was his biggest role? What were some of his smallest? Read on for this RealityNewsOnline exclusive!
Shane Powers, one of the new contestants on Survivor: Panama Exile Island, is listed in his official CBS bio as being the owner of an entertainment marketing company. Other than that, his bio is rather skimpy.
However, RealityNewsOnline has discovered that Shane is also an actor who has appeared in several movies and the occasional small TV role.
Shanes most prominent role appears to have been as Sam the record store owner in the 2002/2003 release, Luster. According to a plot synopsis of the movie, Sam is in love with Jackson, a blue-haired poet who often shops at the store. But other regular customer Derek is also in love with Jackson. Jackson is in love with Billy, another guy he met at an orgy. But Billy favors rock star Sonny. So Jackson considers his own cousin Jed, but Jed is seduced by Jacksons lesbian friend, Alyssa. And somewhere along the line, one man in the movie kills himself for reasons that appear to have something to do with being heterosexual but falling for Jackson. I dont know about you, but Im confused just by the summary!
The U.S. box office was not exactly staggering, but it managed to get a New York Times review. The review is somewhat mediocre, noting that the movie is relentlessly bright and superficial, even when the subject turns to self-destruction. It's as if the filmmaker, along with most of his characters, had taken too many self-esteem seminars at the local Learning Exchange. There is no room for negativity in Mr. Lewis's newfound universe, where bright sunshine and beautiful boys prevail.
In addition, Shane has appeared in several Black Scorpion features both on TV and in movies including Black Scorpion, Black Scorpion II: Aftershock, Black Scorpion Returns, and Sting of the Black Scorpion. Shane plays Specs, whoever that is, in this storyline that features a female Batman-like character who is secretly a sexy undercover cop, according to Yahoo. Some viewers described these as campy, while others said they were the worst movies or shows they had ever seen. I guess it depends on your perspective.
Shane has three minor credits on Third Rock from the Sun as Mugger, Man, and Video Pirate while he doesnt even list the show as one of his favorites in his CBS bio. He also played Guy #1 in the pilot episode of My So-Called Life.
While the CBS bio does not make any mention of Shane having been an actor, we first realized the likelihood that the two Shane Powers were the same when we saw the photo shown at the right side of the top of this article which is from his role in Luster. Although the photos are so similar as to make it highly likely that we were talking about the same person, RealityNewsOnline checked with CBS representatives and confirmed that indeed they are the same person.
Its unlikely that Shanes acting experience, such as it is, will give him much of an edge in Survivor, nor will he probably be recognized by any of the other players. But it is interesting that yet another actor is on the show will he be trying to actually win the million dollars, or will he be more interested in portraying himself as a character, in the hopes of parlaying his appearance into more significant acting roles? Only time will tell.
I read this on a spoiler site and was going to post it. Have you seen the video cover?
The following is a synopsis from Amazon.com:
Genres: Comedy, Drama, Romance
Tagline: What Makes You Shine?
Plot Synopsis: Luster is a refreshingly funny and sexy look at unrequited love. Jackson, a cute, lanky, blue-haired poet who works in a record store, is at the center of Everett Lewis' twisted black LA comedy. He's got a crush on the sexy young blonde, Billy, who he met at an orgy the other night. But Billy's not into him, he's in love with Sonny, a musician into SM. And although Billy doesn't want Jackson, two other guys do: Derek, a clean-cut record store customer, and Sam, the straight record store owner. Into this mix is thrown Jed, Jackson's hunky cousin, which leads Jackson to seriously contemplate the technicalities of incest. Before he can do anything about it, though, Jed is seduced by Jackson's lesbian artist friend. What's a boy to do?

Yep soft porn actor, just like Brian Heidek from Survivor; Thailand.
so is he gay, or bi?
-----I will bet he doesn't last long in the game. While I feel sure no one will recognize him from his films ( like the NFL football player ), I can still hope someone will and he will be the "butt" of the jokes in camp!
Good detective work Cuz and a good eye for porn stars HighWheeler and silent_jonny! That guys picture just oozes that smutty pornappeal.
Shudder.
First shudder goes to the review of that book. Certainly doesn't sound like something I would read! Of course I am quite the elitist when it comes to literature. :) Vince Flynn(do I need to say more?) :)
Second shudder goes to the porno king! What was CBS thinking??? Oh that's right, we'll do anything for an audience..jeez. He even has a sleezy look about him,ugh.
RIAN HEIDIK of survivor Thailand
I don't remember him...not my favorite season.
From memory, without going to the cbs website for more detail, he listed his occupation as a used car salesman and I believe he lived near Palmdale, Ca - it might have been Quartz Hill, but remember this is all from memory.
Con't know if this is the same guy but this is from IMDB.COM:
