"Mercenary's Lexington Steele Speaks Out on BET's Meet the Faith
--press release
CANOGA PARK- Lexington Steele brought his unique point of view as three-time AVN Male Performer of the Year and owner of Mercenary Pictures to Black Entertainment Television's religious-themed Sunday morning program, Meet the Faith.
The episode, titled The Sex Show [Sleeping with Stereotypes], aired on July 8 and dealt with the issues of historic black stereotypes and if it affects sex lives today.
"The work we do in the adult industry isn't for everyone," Steele said.
"I often make comparisons of A-list male and female talent being on par with professional athletes and how the requirements and the maintenance involved, in terms of mental and physical conditioning, are alike. For someone who came into the industry, as I did, after doing my research and who continually strives to bring the best to my scenes and the movies I produce, the adult industry is extremely rewarding."
Steele's appearance on BET comes on the heels of his recently-shot guest appearances on Showtime's Weeds. His mainstream production arm, Mercenary Entertainment, also completed two pilots, Lexington Steele Live, a talk
show, and an as-yet-untitled reality program."

Lex is right. How many of us have watched Monday night football and thought, shit, those guys have got nothing on Hilary Scott. Olympic team? Fuck 'em. Get AllieRay and some meth heads into lycra and they'll be winning medals before you know it.
Anyone think this sort of comparison might work if it was Lockwood and a room full of guys from the UFC?
Nice to know Lex isn't going to Hell for all the sodomy though.
