Gay porn star Jason Pacheco – known by his Sean Cody stage name Randy – has died at the age of 33.
Pacheco had recently posted on Instagram that he had been hospitalised with kidney problems, and linked to a GoFundMe page to help with his medical costs, though his cause of death has not been made public.
“I hate to ask for any help but I am going through some medical issues, my kidneys were failing amongst a couple other issues but I am doing better,” he said in an Instagram post.
“I have been in the hospital for five days now. To all my fans I will start posting much more after I recover from this. Anything helps.”
He added on his GoFundMe page, which was created less than two weeks ago, that he had been feeling “deathly ill” with low kidney function.
“Life has gotten much better and I am so happy to have made it this far. Unfortunately, I have this setback with my health,” he said.

According to Queerty, Pacheco began working in adult film in 2013 with gay porn studio Sean Cody, and was one of the studio’s most prolific stars.
He told Str8Up (link NSFW) in 2018: “I really give it my all. I’m just grateful for the opportunity to do this, and grateful for all the fans that I have.
“I love them all, and they are what keeps my career going.”
Sean Cody film director Walden Woods said in a statement: “My heart is broken to hear about the passing of Randy. I met him on set almost 10 years ago.
“He was always a good guy to be around, and had some amazing energy and authentic charm that was undeniable.
“From some amazing behind-the-scenes moments to Puerto Rico and Palm Springs, I had a great time every day he was on set. It’s incredibly sad to hear of his passing. You were a giant Randy, rest in peace.”
