[UPDATED] Why Did Helix Studios Hide This Tweet From Trevor Harris About His Boyfriend Kane Fox?
While Kane Fox stopped performing at Helix Studios last month, his final scenes are being released this month, and one just came out Friday night. Over the weekend, Helix promoted(?) the scene with a tweet that read “Helix Academy Wrestling,” and it included a video clip of Kane Fox fucking Dallas Preston:
The tweet didn’t include a link to the scene, and it made no mention of the performers, so perhaps whoever sent it was in a hurry, or maybe they’re new to social media and don’t know how to paste links or tag people? Also, as you can see at the bottom of the screencap above, someone replied to the tweet, but that reply was “hidden” by Helix. So, whoever is operating Helix’s account does know how to use Twitter’s “hide replies” feature!
The reply was from Trevor Harris, who, like his boyfriend Kane Fox, also departed from Helix last month. If you view the hidden reply, you’ll see that Trevor Harris wrote, “The amazing top in this scene is Kane Fox.”
Normally when I click to read the “hidden replies,” I expect to see drama. This was not that.
It’s not clear why Helix hid Trevor’s tweet, but Trevor noticed his reply had been hidden earlier today, and he tweeted to the studio again, writing, “The way I was just trying to give my boyfriend credit for his scene. If you don’t wanna mention models that are in your movies, just say that? Super fucking cringe guys”:
Kane Fox himself wrote about the unexplained hidden tweet, writing, “The only thing that saddens me is they don’t have the balls to tag my scene partner and not me, so they won’t tag him either, which is pretty unfair to him”:
A tweet mentioning a performer is an odd thing to conceal, and by hiding it, it makes it seem like Kane Fox and/or Trevor Harris left the studio on bad terms? When reached for comment as to why he thinks Helix hid his tweet, Trevor Harris tells Str8Up, “It’s mostly just them being petty.”
And with regard to why he quit in the first place, Trevor Harris explains, “I had no intention of completely quitting the company or quitting filming for them, but when I talked to the CEO, he pretty much told me he didn’t want me there anyways. So, there was no reason for me to stay with them in any capacity after that.”
So while it doesn’t appear Trevor Harris left on bad terms, what about Kane Fox? Does Helix have an issue with him?
“That’s not the impression I was under,” Fox tells Str8Up, adding, “I suppose I can’t be too surprised, considering I wasn’t always treated with the most professionalism even while I was there.”
Like Trevor Harris, Kane Fox also thinks it’s an issue of pettiness.
“In all honesty, it’s as simple as pure pettiness and immaturity,” Fox says. “It’s all very trivial and kind of dumb, to be honest. I wasn’t even upset about them not tagging me in posts. When they had issues with something as simple as Trevor tagging me in a reply, then it was like ‘okay, that’s a bit much.’ I put a lot of effort into everything I do, and I feel everyone knows that. And I put a great deal of hard work and passion into that movie specifically, as I do with all my projects. Going forward, my goal is to do that for a studio that will appreciate that dedication.”
As of post time, Helix has not responded to a request for comment as to why they hid Trevor Harris’ reply.
UPDATE:
While the studio didn’t address hiding Harris’ reply, they announced earlier today that “full cast and credits for Helix Academy Wrestling” are listed on their site. They ended the tweet with a hashtag “helixgate” and two emojis of tea and a frog:
So, does this mean they’ll never be mentioning the names of their models again on social media, or do they just not want to mention the models in this particular movie? Either way, this is an interesting way for a studio to promote their movie. In fact, I’ve never seen anything like it before.
