History
McCree came to prominence in 2004 as German Mr. Leather. He starred in and was the cover model for his 2007 debut film, Ink Storm, which in 2008 won a Grabby Award for Best Fetish Video.
In 2008 McCree starred in and wrote the screenplay for a film entitled The Drifter. On the set, he met and began a long-distance relationship with American porn actor Vinnie D'Angelo.[2][3] In 2009, The Drifter won a Grabby Award for Best Movie. McCree and D'Angelo each won both a Grabby and a GayVN Award for having the Best Duo Sex Scene. McCree's overall performance in The Drifter earned him a Grabby Award for Best Actor, and also a nomination for Best Actor from GayVN. Further still, his script was nominated as Best Screenplay by both the Grabby and GayVN Awards.
In late 2010, he launched his own website, "loganmccree.tv", with self-published video content.[4][5]
In 2011, McCree came out as bisexual (he had previously identified as gay).[6] In 2012 he moved to Scotland with his girlfriend. In the same year, he starred in the music video for Xiu Xiu's "Joey Song", from the album Always. Since leaving the pornographic industry in 2016, McCree became an anti-gay, far-right[7] men's rights activist.[8]
In 2021, he said in a video that he was heterosexual. In the video, he referred to homosexuality was a deviation and a "brokenness" produced by the absence of a father, and said that children should be kept away from LGBT people, specially from gay men.[9] That year, McCree announced he would be standing as a candidate for the Scottish Family Party, a socially conservative party with strong anti-gay rhetoric, in the Highlands and Islands region during the 2021 Scottish Parliamentary Elections.[10] The Scottish Family Party secured 1,976 votes, meaning McCree was unsuccessful in his bid to win a seat in Parliament.[11]
