Performer Deshaun Hayes Passes

LEXINGTON, Kentucky—AVN has just been informed that performer Deshaun Hayes passed away on March 7 due to complications of liver disease. He was 37 years old. Hayes made his adult industry debut in 2005, and over the course of his XXX career, which lasted about eight years though his participation decreased sharply after 2010, made nearly 80 movies with such companies as Kick Ass Pictures—he appeared in several volumes of their 10 Man Cum Slam series—and Shooting Star Video, where he not only appeared in multiple volumes of Forty Plus Video Magazine, he also directed Volumes 61 and 64 of the series. Hayes does not appear to have essayed any character roles, but if there was a gangbang/orgy-type series being produced during his time in the industry, chances are good that he appeared in at least one volume of it. Hayes was well-liked in his private life, and his Facebook page under his real name indicates that he was born in Chicago and lived for a time in Las Vegas, though he resided for quite a while in Lexington, to which he recently moved back in order to be closer to friends as his medical condition worsened. "I met Deshaun when living in L.A. and we hit it off instantly since we both were from Kentucky and UK basketball fans," said adult star Wendy Williams. "He was a cool guy who loved cars and DJ'ing. I was sadden to hear he lost his battle." "I met Deshaun a number of years ago," said long-time friend Rico Shades. "He was a very nice guy that always kept to himself. Deshaun was an avid fitness guy who didn't do drugs, smoke or anything else. However, when his health failed him, things turned for the worse—quickly. It's a sad tale no doubt, but I do find some solace in the fact that he's not struggling anymore." His Lexington friends held a memorial service for Deshaun on March 14, and many of them, as well as others who had known him across the country, left comments on his page about their memories of him.
