21st Annual NightMoves Awards Winners Announced
The 21st Annual NightMoves® Awards celebrated the cream of the adult entertainment
crop in Tampa, Florida last night, Sunday, October 13. Hosted by adult
superstar Ron Jeremy, perennial emcee
favorite Tony Batman, and Misty Stone, the fully renovated Tampa Gold
Club was packed with fans and stars alike, and the awards show presented in a
format very much suited for such an event.
NightMoves® Awards,
started in 1993, is the third oldest and continuously running adult awards show
in the United States, trailing only the AVN Awards and the XRCO Awards. The NightMoves® Awards were the first to
allow fans to select the winners, making it the original Fan Based Awards, as
well as the first awards show to allow on-line voting. In addition to the Fan
Awards, the show presents Editor’s Choice awards based on reviews of DVDs in
which the nominated performer has appeared.
Between
award presentations, the audience were treated to erotic performances by 2012
Miss Pole Champ USA winner Katie Sutra,
national touring burlesque performer Gia Nova,
Girlfriends Films contract star and gentlemen’s club favorite Prinzzess Felicity Jade, female impersonator Kamden T Cass, local webcam and
dancing sensations Lelu Love and Cleopatra, male exotic dancer
troupe EastCoast Hard Bodies, and SoutheastShowclubs Dancers.
“We’ve
always held our show at mainstream venues,” says Tracy Allen, Editor of
NightMoves® Magazine and
Co-Producer of the NightMoves® Awards. “Holding our 21st show in an
adult-oriented venue such as the Tampa Gold Club has allowed us to present the
kind of show we have always wanted. Our entertainers felt comfortable going
nude on stage, and the fans absolutely loved it! Now that we’ve technically
‘come of age’ with our 21st show, it makes sense to continue this
trend for future shows.”

"After doing this for over 20 years, I am still amazed at
the talent, production, detail, and effort that goes into making not just a porn
film, but a full-scale movie,” says National Features and DVD Editor / Reviewer
for NightMoves®, Art Koch. “Picking award winners for Editor's Choice and the
First Choice Awards get tougher every year. I love it!"
Throughout
the show, fans participated in the “Wheel of Porn” raffle, where a variety of
prizes were won, including a flat-screen TV, donated by Friday Star Caravan
venue host Bare Assets. The
landmark awards show closed the evening with a $1000 balloon drop, with
attendees attempting to grab as many balloons as possible to win the most
amount of cash prizes.
