It's been a long time in the making...

Stu was born in the affluent Canning bloodline. His father, like his father before him was born into politics, money and power. Stu’s father, Benard Canning was elected as a United States senator from the state of Louisiana at the age of 25. Benard Canning, then 27, married Sylvia Lorrent, bringing together two of the most influential families in Louisiana. Stu was born thirteen years later as an only child. Stu’s father spent a good portion of his time in Washington, D.C. and the raising of their baby boy solely rested on the shoulders of Sylvia. Sylvia, like most well-to-do mothers had an entire staff living in the house to take care of everything. A personal driver, a maid, a gardener, a nanny. If there was something that needed to be done in the house, there was an employee to do it.

Stu grew up not knowing that the outside world was as rough and tough as it really was. He was sent to a private school and because of his namesake he was pushed through the system. It carried over into his teenage years where he found girls throwing themselves at him. Not because of him, but because of his last name. They wanted a part of his families money, their power. It was then that Stu began to learn that women would do anything for money. Anything.

Upon graduating from high school, Stu ventured off to college, flying far from the family nest and landing at the University of Southern California. He majored in political science while at college, intent on following in his father‘s footsteps. Though it was at college where Stu’s life took a mysterious turn away from the politics and into the seedy adult entertainment industry. Stu had joined a frat in his freshman year and met Brayden Laville, who would become Stu’s most trusted and closest friend. Brayden was like a brother that Stu never had. Together they would search out the campus’s hottest girls and bring them back to the frat house and get down and nasty with them. During one night of binge drinking, Stu and Brayden thought it would be novel to record themselves with the girls and then, for shits and giggles, set up a website and sell the girls sucking and fucking them on camera.

It had started out small, yet through his four years in college, the website began to flourish and grow, gaining more and more paying members each month. As a result, Stu would begin putting advertisments in the local newspapers for professional models. He began using the money from the website to pay the girls to appear on his website, getting more quality and professional workers. This made his website soar and it was then that Stu decided to step out from only the online media but begin to make DVD’s. At 22, Stu graduated from college and went to Hollywood to start his company, Canning xXxtreme productions. He’d spend eight months, fighting and clawing with the thousands of other adult entertainment companies in California. He packed all of his equipment up and headed back home to Louisiana, where he was set to bring the world a new breed of pornography. No longer would he feature the ‘known’ names or the girls with the ‘barbie doll’ features. He wanted the ‘girl-next-door’ type. Complete amateurs. But most importantly, Stu would sign the girls to a contract and feature his company first with the girls as supporting cast to his movies.

Stu’s father did not support him or his choice to not follow him, however, Stu’s mother, Sylvia just wanted her baby boy to be happy. Sylvia Canning supported her boy and despite persistent urging from his father, he set up shop in the small town of Hathian. Stu used the money he’d made from the website to buy himself a trailer and set up shop. Stu began finding young, innocent, stupid girls to feature in his movies, obviously by promising them money, fame and fortune. They’d find none of that. Instead they found themselves locked into a contract that gave them just enough money to survive and made Stu a very wealthy man.

Stu seemed to make friends at every corner. Well, not really. During his first week in Hathian Stu viciously raped Micalia Elytis and filmed it. Stu would hold this tape over her head as blackmail, using her to get to then Sergeant Trent Noonan. Stu would gain a foothold in the corruption of the Hathian Police Department as he began funding Durham Mahoney's mayoral fund. Though it never came to fruition Stu made some powerful allies.

There was however, two people in Hathian who couldn't be bought off. Micalia and her then boyfriend, Alco Gerstort. Alco would threaten and bully the young man, demanding the master tape of the raping of his girlfriend. The end result would leave Stu wheeling himself around in a wheelchair as Alco had shot him in the thigh.

It was during this time that Stu met Haylee Kepler who turned his world upside down. She was responsible for two of the biggest changes in his life. First, and foremost, she got Stu hooked on cocaine. It really was an instant addiction as it made Stu feel more and more empowered. Secondly, Stu had raped Haylee and as a result, nine months later, Kayla Canning was born. Both Haylee and Stu loathe each other and rarely speak to this day. From the day of her birth, Kayla was the one bright spot in Stu’s life. He loved and adored his little Princess. It was also at this time that Stu used the little money he had left to purchase the XXX shop in Hathian. Haylee had taken custody of Kayla during the first two years of his daughter’s life. It tore Stu up as Kayla was a shining light for him and hated that fact that Haylee used Kayla as a bargaining token. Stu, with Bebe’s help, eventually won custody of Kayla and sent his daughter off to go live with his parents for a few years.

It was during this time that Stu met and befriended someone who would become one of his closest and most trusted friends, Ilana Chenille. Stu saw dollar signs all of Ilana in relation to his business. Stu featured Ilana in many of his first videos, gaining her some exposure and a bit of a following. His company continued to grow, the roster of women working for him was on the rise. He extended his empire back to the internet, creating a new site that would feature the girls of his company.

It was also during this time where Stu met a tall, dopey Irish man named Haden Lisle. Haden would befriend Stu and become another loyal soldier for him. Haden would cross paths with some of Hathian's seediest criminals and as a result, Stu found himself at the business end of Sugita's hammer. After she'd beat him unconcious, she set his studio on fire and left him there to die. Stu had blown two lives away. But like a nimble cat, he still had seven more to go.

Not only did Canning xXxtreme Productions take hold in the DVD and the website market, but Stu, along with another employee of his, Argyle Gadsby worked together on a third entity of his empire, Pixelation.

Pixelation was unlike most of the other flesh magazines in circulation. Whereas most of the magazines would feature hardcore action, Pixelation would feature the girls of Canning xXxtreme Productions.

It was during this time period where Stu hired a busty brunette named Madeline Beck. She worked for him, starring in several movies before being chosen as the cover model for the first issue of Pixelation. During the whirlwind publicity circuit of the magazine, Stu and Madeline would travel across the US promoting the magazine. They would become close and would begin seeing each other. It was on a business trip to Las Vegas that Stu and Madeline found themselves married. Three months later Madeline and Stu had their marriage annulled and Madeline left Hathian.

Stu really began to involved himself in the black market, bringing in 'snuff' films to Hathian and selling them from the XXX shop in Hathian. Stu then plotted his revenge on Sugita. Stu, along with Haden would go to Ivy Lucerne and Alco Gerstort and put aside all of their differences to take out Sugita. It was a successful endeavor as after that evening Sugita would never again put a pinky on Stu.

Though his life began to take a toll on him. He began to involve himself more and more into his work and more importantly to him, his coke habit. Canning xXxtreme Productions was on a roll and was becoming more and more profitable. His Kingdom and empire was on the rise and he moved from the trailer into an office in the downtown area. He’d find a need for an intern/personal assistant. That came in the form of an voluptuous Latino named Taeja Diaz. Stu did what Stu did with all of the women in his life up to this point. He used her. Eventually she realized Stu for who he was. A drug addict and an abuser. She came to her senses and left him.

All good things would come to an end and his protection from the HPD came to an end as Durham Mahoney had taken enough of his money and decided to make a splash in the newspapers. On November, 14, the Hathian Police Department broke down Stu's doors and would also tear his shop to pieces. They were after the drugs and the snuff films.

Stu would then go on to have to have several flings with a few of his employees, though nothing serious at all. His company would continue to flourish and rumors would circulate around that Stu had become involved in some underground activities that would include drug trafficking and human smuggling. Whether or not it was true, Stu never confirmed nor denied the rumors.

As Stu’s life progressed he grew closer and closer to his daughter Kayla and it seemed that any relationship he had would fail because of the jealousy of his little Princess. Along came one of Stu’s employees, Bella Antonelli-Dagger, better known as Rippen. Following a night of heavy drug usage Stu would find out several months later that he was going to be a father for a second time. Stu had felt guilty about not being around Kayla when she was born. He’d proposed to Rippen in an attempt to make life right for the unborn baby girl.

Madeline Canning was born after Rippen had left Stu. Once again Stu had failed to be around for one of his baby girl’s. As much as he wanted it to be different it wasn’t. Maddie lived with Stu for sometime and it was during this time that Stu hired a nanny to help tend to and take care of his youngest daughter. Audrina.

It was also around this time that the pulse of the community called for a more risqué magazine than Pixelation. Stu got his team together and late one night they came up with a concept and began developing the newest brand to the Canning xXxtreme Productions label, Kink.

Stu grew closer and closer to the nanny that he’d hired to look after little Maddie, until one day Stu realized that perhaps this was the one for him. He’d find himself looking for reasons to have her around more and more as Maddie grew older. He’d make excuses for her to come take care of things around the house. After a few more months he invited her to be a live in nanny, and as they say, the rest is history. Stu had found someone who didn’t want him for his power, for his money, for his influence. For the first time in his life he found someone who wanted him for who he was. It was refreshing. After some stunning news, Stu proposed to the young girl. Certain circumstances finally made Stu view his life differently than before. After a decade of appearing in his own movies, Stu took a off-hands approach to his company, now preferring to run the business than to ‘do’ the business. He’d also check himself into rehab. After 13 years of constant drug abuse, Stu has successfully got himself clean. Stu now occupies his time either at his XXX shop, running Canning xXxtreme Productions or at home with his wife to be.
