Brandon Lee (born March 18, 1979), is the stage name of a gay Asian American pornographic actor. He took his stage name from Brandon Lee, the deceased son of martial arts actor Bruce Lee. Brandon Lee, however, is of Chinese-Filipino descent. Lee also performed under the name Sean Martinez early in his career.
