JustFor.fans (JFF) founder and CEO Dominic Ford was featured in an Out article on September 14, 2026, discussing the inaugural Collab Week Fire Island event, which drew approximately 60 models for content creation and nightlife. This follows a previous Collab Week event in Puerto Vallarta in December 2025, also highlighted in a Pride.com interview with Ford.
Collab Week Fire Island Overview
The Out article, titled "Meet the Sexy Men Who Attended Collab Week Fire Island" and written by Ricky Cornish, provided a retrospective on the Fire Island event. The week-long gathering attracted around 60 models who traveled from various international locations. Activities included content creation, nightlife events, and shared experiences at venues such as Reflections, Doll Invasion, and the Underwear Party at Ice Palace.
The feature also spotlighted several JFF models who attended, including Matthew Ellis, Roxas Caelum, Grant Ducati, Alfonso, and Jace Starr. Ford commented on his long-standing connection to Fire Island, stating, "I have a love affair with Fire Island. I have been here for 21 years, and it was absolutely my joy to watch a large group of people who have never been here discover the magic of the island themselves and fall in love with it. It was such an affirming experience for everyone."
Previous Collab Week in Puerto Vallarta
Prior to the Fire Island event, JustFor.fans presented Collab Week Puerto Vallarta, which took place from December 2–8, 2025. This event was the subject of a Pride.com Q&A titled, “Adult Star Dominic Ford Is Bringing the Hottest Models Together for Collab Week in Puerto Vallarta.” The article was also written by Ricky Cornish.
Collab Week Puerto Vallarta gathered 200 models from around the world for a week of filming, beach parties, live events, and creator networking within Puerto Vallarta’s Zona Romántica. Brands such as Ru5h.com and MISTR supported the event. Ford noted that many content creators were experiencing Puerto Vallarta for the first time, describing the atmosphere as "perfect for models to have fun, work, but also let their hair down, have a good time, and meet a bunch of new people."
Ford also emphasized the international inclusivity of the Puerto Vallarta event, stating, “There are so many Latin American models who can’t get to the USA for things like this. By having an event in PV, we’re able to provide those models with an experience they’ve never had before on a scale like this.”
JustFor.fans Community Investment
Ford indicated that plans were in progress for future Collab Weeks in additional locations, including Fire Island. He told Pride.com, “Look out for JustFor.fans and Collab Week to be doing even more to support our models all over the world. We are the only gay-owned fan site, and we heavily invest in our community—these events are just one part of how we give back.”
