Yea I get it.. I mean I am a Pariah in this biz and I never ever expected to win any awards.
I have realized that about 6 months into this biz when I started in '02.
However, despite my content being different, I'd put money on it it does better than over 70% of who's been nominated, and is more popular, too. Speaking as a pornographer, and not a webmaster, I look at what has been nominated and I shake my head. It's more of the same. Nothing new, and the usual suspects who suck on the tit of AVN and vice versa.
I am also surprised to see a lot of dvd companies nominated. Haven't they all but died? Maybe it's just AVN's unwillingness to realize that the game has changed, and the days of food catered sets are done and the people truly making a difference and driving the industry aren't in Chatsworth Ca. No one cares about the AVN awards. It's cheesier than the latin soap opera awards. Also, I think there could be some more Ebony stars nominated. What's up with that??
That being said, I think it's time AVN took their business plan, folded it up in a bird made of origami, and let it fly away, or, at worst, let it fly into where the business is headed, not where it was 8 years ago. I'm tired of seeing some methed out porn whore with ribs showing, dancing on the top of someone's booth.
If I was too nice, let me know. I will repost without pulling any punches.

Darrah · 11-28-2009, 07:48 AM

How does Lisa Ann not get nominated for performer of the year? She was everywhere and made Hustler a lot of money. Her first Palin installment is Hustler's best selling video of all time. They just ran that press release announcing how it's their best seller ever.

How does Vicky Vette not get nominated for web starlet when she has the most visited porn star website out there? She is the type to be nominated as a web starlet and not a contract girl. How can a woman who has a contract even be considered for this? She has a contract! The web starlets are the Vicky Vette and Raven Riley's of the world. Not a contract girl.

And how is Sasha Grey nominated for new web starlet? She only has out one or two movies. Where is her website? There is no Grey Art website. Fuck Junkie redirects to SashaGrey.com. And SashaGrey.com is not what you would call a porn site. So where is this website for Sasha to even be considered for new web starlet? The menu to the left leads to none of her videos unless I'm missing something. Where are her new Grey Art videos to even have this brand new company be considered for her to be nominated as new web starlet?

I have NOTHING against Sasha. I'm just pointing out how AVN should never have nominated her. Not because of her but because of her circumstances. There's so much more for me to critique.

LoveSandra · 11-28-2009, 07:52 AM

Congrats

grumpy · 11-28-2009, 10:04 AM

the list with categories is a joke.

Darrah · 11-30-2009, 08:04 PM

How does Angelina Valentine get nominated for Best New Web Starlet if her website, though already up, doesn't officially launch until December 8 with a launch party being held at the Crazy Girls in Hollywood? NOTHING against the girl but just to the powers that be that hand out these nominations.

Find your own links and do your own research. You wanna make accusations? Back them up or... you know what to do.

One of the other things that comes along with awards, is the negativity.

By the way, what's your agenda?

Major (Tom) · 12-01-2009, 08:49 AM

Bottom Line. If I sponsored an AVN Event I would Win an award.
Bottom Line: If There was an ROI on an AVN event I would sponsor one.

im in no rush....

my agenda is to prove that only advertisers get awards and that the larger the advertiser the more awards.

that's it.

well, advertising and buying tables at the award show. cause it would be horrible when you gave awards to people that are not there to receive them

I ain't gonna front... we are happy with the Noms we got for LA Pink and our site as well as our other releases... thanks to all our fans

Congrats to all nominees

Evil Chris · 12-01-2009, 10:30 AM

Once again, congratulations to all the nominees. That Wiki article is worth quoting here:

Quote:

The AVN Awards are movie awards sponsored and presented by the American adult video industry trade magazine AVN (Adult Video News) to honor exceptional performance in various aspects of the creation and marketing of American pornographic movies. They are called the "Oscars of porn".[1][2][3] The AVN Awards comprise nearly 100 categories, some of which are analogous to industry awards offered in other film and video genres, and others that are specific to pornographic/erotic film and video.

AVN sponsored the first AVN Awards ceremony in February 1984. The award ceremony occurs in early January during the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 2008 AVN Awards were scheduled to air on Showtime on March 14, 2008 at 12am ET/PT [4].

Awards for gay adult video were a part of the AVN awards from the 1986 ceremony through the 1998 ceremony. The increasing number of categories made the show unwieldy and for the 1999 ceremony AVN Magazine began hosting the GayVN Awards, an annual adult movie award event for gay adult video.

26 years of "Oscars of Porn"

JP-pornshooter · 12-01-2009, 12:01 PM

it really is a parody of the oscars..

Redmanthatcould · 12-01-2009, 01:11 PM

You can go through the past winners, and look at their magazine if you want to prove your "facts", since some of you are feeling holy. http://avnawards.avn.com/winners/

Starlet - noun - a young actress promoted and publicized as a future star, esp. in motion pictures.

Darrah · 12-02-2009, 04:59 PM

The Oscars of porn? The Oscars are voted by their peers. Not by one company who has a long history of giving awards and nominations to people who don't deserve it. When people ask who is Janie Summers, that should say something about the "best new starlet" category. And how exactly did Kayden Kross, a B-list porn star, get the hosting gig? More well known porn stars, and even legends, have never been asked to host.

Dirty D · 12-02-2009, 10:38 PM

I am happy that someone nominated Glory Hole Girlz for the Best Oral Series.

I have never sent in a nomination, nor am I an advertiser so it was great to see my gritty reality porn make the cut.
