Steele, who’s the host and star of Playboy TV’s “Lex in the City,” shot and produced the show independently and plans to shop it to mainstream cable networks early next year.
Steele has appeared on mainstream TV before: in two episodes of Showtime’s “Weeds” and in the FX series “Nip/Tuck.”
"For years I have been a part of the marriage of mainstream and adult entertainment,” Steele said. “Bridging the gap between the two is my primary intention. This show will celebrate the personalities of XXX stars and feature icons from every facet of entertainment. The time to establish this concept with a broader audience is now. I look forward to making this show a platform for our whole industry, not just a platform to increase my own popularity."
Appearing as guests on Steele’s pilot program was Glenn Plummer from “Sons of Anarchy,” Stilts from “The Love of Ray J,” DJ SynCity and comedian Thomas Ward who played Bill Cosby in “Not the Cosbys XXX.”
Adult star guests included Janet Mason, Jada Fire, Sophie Dee, Nyomi Banxxx, Evan Stone, Mr. Marcus, Marco Banderas and Lee Bang.
Banderas performed his salsa single, “Porno Life,” with background dancers Bridgette B and Charisma.
