Dakota Payne Stars in New Series From Next Door Studios

LOS ANGELES — Next Door Studios has launched an original ongoing series, titled "Love is Payne," starring exclusive Dakota Payne as he navigates love and life as a porn star in Los Angeles.

The series is inspired by "Sex and the City," noted executive producer Jeremy Babcock.

The premise "lets us take a fictional peek behind the curtain," he said. "We’ve wanted to create a model-centered series for a while, and who better to build this around than the amazing Mr. Payne? We hope everyone enjoys this series as much as we enjoyed making it."

A pilot episode, titled "The Closet Case," features Payne alongside fellow exclusive Andrew Miller.

"Dakota and Andrew meet in a waiting room and Dakota finds that Andrew recognizes him from his prolific career in the industry. But Andrew still claims that he’s straight; Dakota charms his way into Andrew’s heart, and Andrew asks him out on a date," a rep said. "However, the question remains: can a chance encounter with a closeted fan lead to love?"

Payne enthused about the series and its potential.

"It’s so much fun being so involved on a project,” he said. "It's a creative way of telling real stories that gay men and sex workers experience. The highs and lows of romantic encounters, the passionate exchanges we have that are sometimes met with brutal rejection; it’s all there. Love ain’t easy.”

Director Walden Woods praised the final results and his creative team.

"'Love is Payne' is definitely one of the best projects I have worked on in awhile. Writer Dalton King worked together with Dakota to really hit on the heartstrings of all our viewers. Dakota always brings his A-game and Andrew is proving himself as a force to be reckoned with in the industry. The cast and crew had a great time filming this and the connection between the two models was undeniable. I am super-excited for everyone to sit back and enjoy this series we created. I really think you'll love it.”

"The Closet Case" will debut Saturday; follow Next Door Studios online and on Twitter.
