The rumor Vlad brings up is that Vanessa Blue outed Lexington Steele as gay after catching him in bed with a man. Lex says what she actually walked in on was a woman. On Thanksgiving 2005, Vanessa drove to her family in Henderson, Nevada, and he figured he had the whole weekend. A girl was in LA to test and shoot for Playboy, and she ended up in his bed, in the house he shared with Vanessa. Vanessa had offered a relative in the Air Force a ride back to base, so she came home early on Friday morning. Lex heard the garage door go up, then her footsteps on the stairs, and told her to stop where she was. She kept coming. At the top of the stairs she saw the girl, who stood up, all 5'10" of her, and told Vanessa she didn't want to come over to that side of the bed and that she had nothing to do with this. Vanessa backed off and went downstairs. Lex took the girl to her hotel and came home to have it out. They stayed together anyway and got engaged in January 2006. In June 2006, after more than six years together, they split, and Lex calls what came next scorched earth: she was out as his fiancée, as a director, as an employee and as a partner. In his telling, a woman whose engagement falls apart has to explain why, and the easiest story was right there in his catalog. Through his Black Viking division he produced gay titles and other niche lines he never appeared in, to fill out what his salespeople could offer buyers. So, he says, she told people she caught him in bed with someone and let them assume the rest. According to Lex, she really caught him with a girl she wanted to fight and chose not to. Lex, born Clifton Britt, studied at Syracuse and worked as a stockbroker before porn. In 2003 he became the first man to win AVN's Male Performer of the Year three times, and Mercenary, the company he owns, reported $2.6 million in net profit in 2011. In 2016 he married performer Savana Styles. Vanessa Blue, born Tanya Faulkner in Long Beach, once studied to be an EMT. According to IMDb she's the only Black woman to have held contracts with both Playboy and Hustler. She directed series for Mercenary, including Black Reign, which won an AVN Award in 2005, and the two of them did Playboy TV together on his show Lex in the City. On June 20, 2006 she announced she was leaving Mercenary. In 2008 they sued each other in federal court over who owned a pile of videos released under the Mercenary label, and they settled in 2009. She went on to direct femdom as Domina X and entered the AVN Hall of Fame in 2013. Vanessa doesn't get to answer in this clip, so all we have is Lex's side. Who's lying here, the ex-fiancée who supposedly spread a gay rumor, or the man who admits she caught him in their bed with a girl testing for Playboy, and still got engaged to her that January?
