Porn consumers and noted industry professionals have been clamoring for another awards show, and their persistence has paid off.
The Temptation Awards, a byproduct of Canada’s Temptation News, will be presented on July 29 at the Beverly Hilton. Scholars will remember that it was at the Beverly Hilton I parked for that memorable Shane’s World party.
“By the year 2016, there will be one porn awards show for every movie released,” said industry spokesperson I.J. Thongtop Juicypants, noting that current regulations prohibit more than one awards show per title.
To review, by the end of July there will have been at least seven American porn awards shows since November: XBiz, AVN, FOXE, XRCO, FAME, the Temptation Awards, and the Free Speech Coalition’s Night of the Stars, which this year will present Jill Kelly and Mr. Marcus with lifetime achievement honors.
Trade publication XBiz has been announced as the official media sponsor of the Temptation Awards.
“The merging of XBiz™ and Temptation News creates effective coverage of the event. XBiz™’s exclusive coverage provides further legitimacy and acknowledgement providing an unbiased overview of the event.”
Sometimes we all need an official media sponsor to make us feel legitimate.
The event itself sounds swanky, with an hors d’oeuvres-laden garden party hosted by jessica drake followed by a four-course meal, capped by the awards. By that point, people will be so stuffed with legitimacy that they will forget they already attended five other awards shows in which Pirates won Best Picture.
The Temptation Awards follow the AVN model by separating Best Picture into both Film and Video categories. They also recognize Best Contract Star, which is a tip to larger companies. Business categories like Best Affiliate Program and Best VOD are reminiscent of their media sponsor’s awards.
To my knowledge, the Temptation Awards, which is touted as a “top-notch Canadian based adult awards ceremony”, is the only Canada-based adult awards ceremony, and this will be the first time it is presented.
Individual tickets to the awards are $125. You can find pre-nomination information at the link below.
