However, his internet fame began many years later on September 30th, 2007 with the upload of a video clip from Herrington's 'Workout Muscular Men 3' via video-sharing community Nico Nico Douga (NND).
In the following years, Herrington modeled for French nude calendars and starred in a number of hardcore adult films that made him one of the best known same-sex adult films stars of the late 1990s.
Born and raised in Long Island, New York, Herrington began pursuing his acting career after his high school graduation in 1996 when one of his nude submissions won him Playgirl magazine's 'Real Men of the Month' contest.
