April 21st-23rd marks the 50th Anniversary Show for the EXXXOTICA ADULT ENTERTAINMENT EXPO as it descends into the Chicagoland area at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in beautiful Rosemont, IL.
This go-round Icon head honcho Jason is sending the resident adult content aficionado to find out what we’ve been sleeping on 49 times over. That’s right, folks, I’m heading to EXXXOTICA to shed light on pop culture’s often neglected legal-aged step-sister. Like the movies you’re sure to find at the event, this step-sis has a heart of gold. She tolerates the family drama and poor treatment from step-dad (mainstream film) and mom (post-Skinamax television) because it doesn’t hold a candle to step-bro’s (society’s) fascination and respect.
A long-winded workaround to make a “step-joke”, but if TikTok has taught me anything, it is that no matter the length, a “help me, step-bro” video is sure to be worth the wait.
I could wax poetic about my deep love for the Adult Industry for hours upon hours, but we’ll save that for my trip. So for now, I’ll point you toward EXXXOTICA’s official press release so you can grab all the details and read up on the special events and after-parties.
I hope to see some of you there!
