''I've often talked about how Mercenary Pictures always aims to bring its fans the biggest bang for their buck,'' Steele said. ''in this case, we're bringing Mercenary Pictures — and myself — to the fans. They have shown us tremendous support over the years and attending a consumer-focused show like Erotica LA is a great way for us to get feedback from them.''

He is also nominated for two award shows scheduled for the Erotica LA weekend — the Fans of Adult Media Entertainment Awards, to be held on June 7, and the Urban Spice Awards on the following day.

''I'm looking forward to attending both awards shows,'' Steele said. ''I also appreciate the recognition from the fans at FAME and the Urban Spice Awards. Mercenary Pictures' movies have always been produced to the highest caliber and I always hold myself and my performers to a standard those movies demand.''
