Steve Holmes Honored with XBIZ Legacy Award, Three 2020 Noms

Adult film legend Steve Holmes has been nominated for three new awards by adult industry trade mag XBIZ. The star learned of his nominations after being presented with the Legacy Award at the RISE Dinner and Awards Gala in Hollywood on Nov. 20th.

“I was totally taken by surprise,” said Holmes. “I had no idea they gave out any awards that night. I wasn’t even paying that close attention to what was being said on the stage because I was surrounded by beautiful women and the dinner was excellent. But I was very happy that my old friend Manuel Ferrara handed it to me, so that made it super special.”

“My friends ask me, especially my friends in Germany, ‘what is a Legacy Award’, and I say, ‘I guess it’s for being old’ [laughs]

Holmes is XBIZ’s 2018/2019 Foreign Male Performer of the Year.

Dana Vespoli’s “Ministry of Evil” from Evil Angel

XBIZ has nominated Holmes for Best Actor – Taboo Themed Release for his role in director-star Dana Vespoli’s “Ministry of Evil”; Best Sex Scene — Taboo-Themed Release for his scene with Vespoli, Julia Ann and Victoria Voxxx in the same movie; and Best Sex Scene — Gonzo for his performance with Jane Wilde in “Slut Puppies 14” from Jules Jordan.

Twisted

Seasoned with theological references and blasphemous imagery, “Ministry Of Evil “ is set in a monastic order where people need to have their faith restored, and explores twisted kinks that religion inspires but nonetheless forbids.

Assisted by nuns Julia Ann and Dana Vespoli, Father Steve uses sexually corrective practices to cure raven-haired beauty Victoria Voxxx of demonic possession in the XBIZ-nominated sex scene.

Regarding his clerical role, Holmes recalled, “I’ve played so many priests and protestant ministers; a Roman Catholic cardinal. . . .  I even once played a rabbi, even though I was the only person in the scene with an uncircumcised dick!”

“I know Dana Vespoli from the very beginning of her career,” he added. “We did our first scene for Anabolic, where I was beating her with a dead fish, and at the end her body was covered in fish scales. I love working for her because she is super-creative and such a lovely person.”

The feeling is mutual, Vespoli said: “He always brings something unique and special to every performance—he can be hilarious or sinister and of course he’s a huge pervert who is down for anything. Bless his heart! And he’s so kind and generous. He’s just a great guy who can run circles around male talent in this business who are half his age.”

Regarding the nomination for his gape-filled Christmas-themed romp with Jane Wilde in “Slut Puppies 14”, Holmes said, “That was a fun scene. Jane is so lovely; I loved shooting with her and it shows.”

Wilde commented, ”This scene with Steve Holmes was my first time working with him and one of my favorite scenes ever. It’s an absolute classic.”

Steve Holmes, 58, began his performing career in Europe in 1996. His stage name was suggested by a reporter “because I was really skinny, and tall, with a big dick, and he said I reminded him of John Holmes,” Holmes said. A veteran of well over 2500 scenes, Holmes has been living and working in Los Angeles and Budapest since 2002. In 2015 he began producing and directing for Kink.com’s Public Disgrace website.
