Iconic gay pornstar Arpad Miklos was found dead at his apartment in New York, from an apparent suicide. A note was found with his body on February 3rd. He was 45.

Randal Lynch, writer for the LGBT Youtube Channel ‘Gwist’ said of Arpad, ”there was a lot more to him than just that surface persona. He was a very active person in the gay community.”

Mr. Miklos was perhaps best known in the mainstream community as the co-star of singer-songwriter Perfume Genius’ (aka Mike Hadreas) brilliant video, ‘Hood’.

A friend of Arpad’s talks to Howard Bragman on his Youtube show, ‘Gwissues’, after the jump.
