Team Wicked at the 2014 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo
With exciting new stars and directors, prestigious nominations, innovative new products and a dynamic new promotional campaign, Team Wicked℠ will be blazing brighter than the Las Vegas skyline at the 2014 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo.
Dubbed "the World's Largest Adult Trade Event," the expo is being held at the spectacular Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show begins midweek, Wednesday, January 15th, giving industry, media and fans alike access to both AEE and the AVN Novelty Expo (members of the Wicked Sensual Care team will be representing their line of award-winning intimate lubricants and enhancers in Wicked's business suite). The Annual Fan Fest begins Thursday, January 16th, and the 2014 AVN Awards Show, co-hosted by Wicked Girl Samantha Saint, will bring down the curtain late Saturday night, January 18th. Wicked and its elite team of contract superstars will be participating in exciting talks, panels, seminars, screenings and parties during the fast-paced, four-day event.
For fans, the Wicked action will swing into motion Wednesday at 1:00 PM, when three-time AVN Best Actress, emerging sexual wellness authority and 2014 AVN awards nominee jessica drake speaks at the topical panel presentation "Porn Goes to College." This insightful professional will share her experiences discussing sexual wellness and dispelling common misconceptions about the industry at some of the nation's leading universities. The day will also see stars appearing at the all-new Wicked Booth (#705) in Muse Hall to autograph new signing pieces for their fans from 1:00 PM until 6:00 PM.
The ladies will split their time between the expo hall and an impressive penthouse suite where they'll be granting interviews to media outlets from around the globe. On Thursday, Stormy, jessica, Kaylani, Samantha and Asa will begin meeting fans and showing off such exciting new products as the Stormy Daniels and Samantha Saint Wicked RealDolls™ in Muse Hall, beginning at 11:00 AM. At 1:00 PM, the exclusive fan seminar "jessica drake's Guide to Wicked Sex: Anal" will find the creator of the award-winning series discussing everything needed to experience a pleasurable and passionate first time. The newest Wicked Girl, industry superstar Asa Akira, will join the panel of "Fact or Fiction?" at 1:30 PM. Industry leaders representing a variety of sectors will be confronted with a series of truisms about the adult industry, and have to label each as “Myth” or “Truth” - and then explain why they answered the way they did! At 3:30 PM, Wicked will host an exclusive screening of Brad Armstrong's blockbuster release "Underworld," inside Vinyl at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Following the screening, Armstrong, jessica, Asa and producer David Lord will hold a Q&A for those in attendance. All trade attendees & Thursday fan ticket holders will be allowed entry.
As Thursday draws to a close, Wicked will host a night of revelry at Aria’s posh nightclub Haze, where adventurous party goers can lose themselves in the beautiful facility’s pulsating rhythms, stylish European ambiance and the elegant allure of the five Wicked Girls. Friday January 17th will see the ladies holding court in Muse Hall from 11:00 AM until 6:00 PM, while Brad Armstrong will join the panel of "What’s the Future of the Feature?" This seminar will explore the viability of adult feature films in light of today's challenging economy and shifting methods of content delivery. Iconic actress, screenwriter and director Stormy Daniels will be participating in "The Feminist Porn Mystique," a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals. What is feminist porn, who is really making it, and for whom?
Ms. Daniels will tackle these issues and much more beginning at 1:00 PM; Mr. Armstrong's panel, moderated by filmmaker and industry veteran Eli Cross, begins at 4:00 PM. The latest director to join the Wicked family, Axel Braun of Axel Braun Productions, will join other industry veterans to discuss "31 Ways to Make Cash from Content" at 2:30 PM. Mr. Braun will be available for interviews at AEE Saturday, January 18th, as will his exclusive contract beauty Riley Steele, who'll be promoting Axel Braun Productions at the Wicked booth from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The Wicked Girls will appear from 10:00 AM to 2:30 PM.
