Naked <I>City</I>: Lexington Steele Debuts on Playboy TV

- Multiple AVN Award winner Lexington Steele takes the reins of his new adult talk show, Lex in the City, tonight on HBO.

"I am not a talk show host - I am a pornographer," Steele told AVN.com, but he will be building one skill while working the other as he hosts adult performers Dee and Obsession for the inaugural "For Chocolate Lovers Only" Valentine's Day show.

"Lex's debut has a great lead-in with Night Calls 411," producer Jamie Battista told AVN.com, "and we're drawing from a considerable base of women who've worked with Lex, as the 'Women of Steel'."

Battista notes that Lex has "no real competition" so the show has room to grow. He envisions the program as an ethnic counterpart to Night Calls, which he also produces. Future episodes will feature racy videos or "full out porn" of the Snoop Dogg variety. "If the show's good," Battista said, "It'll stay on Playboy. And it's good."

Lex in the City also boasts fleshpot turntableist Vanessa Blue. The show debuts tonight at 9:30 PST on Playboy TV. Viewers can call in at 800-359-8100.
