[edit] Education, career prior to porn
Originally from New Jersey, Steele graduated from Morristown High School in 1987. He graduated from Syracuse University Martin J. Whitman School of Management in 1993. He is a member of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity.
He worked in New York City as a stock broker in the World Trade Center and claims that he would have been in the buildings and been a victim of the September 11, 2001 attacks had he kept his old job as a stockbroker. He worked as a model on the side and acted in minor TV roles.
[edit] Adult film career
He started to act in adult movies in the latter part of 1997, in New York City. He moved to Los Angeles and joined the industry full-time in March 1998. Initially he shot mainly for the companies Anabolic and Diabolic. He is notorious for his dramatic screams upon ejaculation.
Steele won AVN Male Performer of the Year Awards in 2000, 2002 and 2003, the only actor to win three times. In 2005, Steele was awarded the AVN Award for Best Anal Scene and the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) Award for Best Sex Scene, Couple for a scene he did together with his co-star Katsumi in "Lex Steele XXX 3". Other XRCO Awards he has won are best Male Performer and Best Threeway, both of which he won in 2001.
Steele has been linked romantically off-film to porn actresses Calli Cox and Alexandria Quinn. He was once falsely rumored to be the father of Calli Cox's son.[1] He is now engaged to black porn actress and director Vanessa Blue.[2] The two have appeared together on Playboy TV (in his two-season show "Lex in the City") and in several movies.
Steele now directs and performs exclusively for his own porn production company, Mercenary Pictures, which he founded in 2003. He claims to have made profits of $2.6 million in 2005.[2]
[edit] Penis size
Lexington and his agent claim that his erect penis is 11 inches . An on screen measurement of his endowment can be seen in the 1999 porn video "Lewd Conduct 3". Photographer Suze Randall describes his penis in her website as "monstrous" . Steele is one of the interviewees in the 1999 HBO documentary "Private Dicks: Men Exposed". Due to his size, he had only been fully deep throated by three individuals: Belladonna, Bobbi Bliss (in the 2002 movie "A Taste of Mocha"), and Katsumi.
In 2003, Steele said that the American porn actor with the largest penis was Mandingo, followed by Jack Napier and himself.[3]
[edit] Religion
In an interview in 2004, Steele stated that he is a religious man (Baptist), continuing
- "Doing porno, on a repeated basis, I am committing adultery; I’m not married, so I’m fornicating for a living; I’m paid to have sex, which means what? I’m prostituting by definition. These are things I have to reckon with my God on a daily basis. I knowingly do these things.
- "My decision to do porno has forced me to take my religion within: because of my job I am stronger in my relationship with God, because now I take God with me everywhere I go; if I don’t, I’ll fail. I didn’t know that God blessed me with an abnormally large penis that allows me to make porno. But I feel blessed."[4]
He also mentioned that many performers in the porn business take drugs and said that he would forbid his daughters from entering the porn business.
