Joey Stefano (January 1, 1968 - November 26, 1994) was an American pornographic actor (porn star) who appeared in gay adult films. He was popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. His real name was Nicholas Anthony Iacona, Jr.
Nick Iacona grew up in suburban Philadelphia (Chester, Pennsylvania). His father died when he was 15. After several years of prostitution and drug use in New York City, Iacona moved to Los Angeles and enjoyed a meteoric rise to stardom in gay pornography. A source of popularity besides his looks was the fact the he was the first exclusively "bottom" porn star to be featured in movies.
He was HIV+ (positive) in the latter part of his film career, alledgedly because he was hustling when he couldn't find porn work.
His good looks and success caught the attention of Madonna, who used him as a model in her 1992 book Sex.
Iacona died of an overdose of cocaine, morphine, heroin and ketamine at age 26. His body was shipped back to Pennsylvania and he was buried next to his father.
Charles Isherwood, in his 1996 biography Wonder Bread and Ecstasy (Alyson Publications), alleges that Stefano was molested as a child.
