Wasn't impressed with AVN

Crowded as fuck, always bumping into people because the isles were so narrow. It was more of a freak show than anything else; I thought for a minute that I had been taken through a portal to ComicCon. So unimpressed by it all that I didn't even attend the VIP party on Friday night that I had tickets for.

Couldn't wait to get back to "normal" here in SoCal.

My friend (and sometimes partner in crime) Coralblue (here on HX) was there to be interviewed so we were able to spend a short time together but didn't recognize anyone else.

Won't be going back next year!

It’s not like it used to be with actual glamour and pageantry and top quality ladies.

OnlyFans and similar sites have made it so ANYONE can be an adult performer.
You won’t get legends to attend, only has-beens.

I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that, like everything else, everyone is a "pornstar" if they want to think of themselves as one. Is there anything that has not been diluted/cheapened?

I heard they didn’t allow the transgender performer of the year any stage time either

The whole world is like this.
Everything has been cheapend. Nothing is worth going out of your way for. Mediocre at best.
And it gets worse. New Year Eve, Super Bowl, Marti Graw, Sturgis doesn't matter.

It is to open to mainstream and any creator/pornstar/sex worker can go no matter how small the following. Not as glamorous as it once was

I haven’t been in years , it was at the Vegas convention center though. So you didn’t have the issue of clogged up isles and bumping into people. I was at the X3 expo last week in Hollywood it was crowded too , but it was chill . I saw some familiar faces so I had good time.

Yes, it was so crowded trying to walk thru the aisles.

There were way too many girls streaming live.

My group did not bother to attend the Fri night VIP party we had wristbands to get in.

I did meet one Hx provider, but we were not able get together.

Too funny the small world we live in. 2020, it was all held at the closing Hard Rock. Literally as of that Monday it was shut down for renovations to become Virgin.

First, attending my 4th over a 20 year span, I literally made a first left-hand turn in the theatre area and there on the right, is a girl I don't remember but she was great to talk to. Becuz I was waiting to get a pic with Brooklyn Chase, Allura Jensen and Sarah Jessie. And while I waited, I noticed to my left was none other than...Drum roll..Fiji Fallz. Sorry if thats not how u spelt it. I stept over and acknowledged her name - not HX - and she was surprised I said it right, couldn't have been sweeter, and then slipped back in line. SJ left before I could get a pic. but walking thru I got pics with a lot of long term favorites - Brittany Andrews, McKensie Lee, Veronica Adluv, Alexis Fawxk...sorry if spelling is wrong. Overall it seemed similar to my other 3 trips. I didn't wait in a massive line for Jenna Jameson or...

Second, it was amazing at the round bar, where all the top shelf stars, Nikki Benz - Green Bay Packers fan and host that year - would hang out for a drink. At all four, most important was establishing a beachhead where they would eventually go for a drink. The casual conversations over a shot or 5 were always great. The last time at Hard Rock, there were a lot more content girls hanging out at the bars, interested in filming for there OF, personal websites etc...

Hopefully, they will learn from what went wrong this year!

and when I say Jenna Jameson, I'm talking about whoever the latest HOT star was there. Jenna was NOT there. Trolls.

Who really knows?

It's an upfront offer that she has free will to say yes or no.
It's not like I'm creeping up behind her and going in for the sooprise sooprise sooprise (Gomer Pyle style) dry ass-rape like the Koala Turd would.

years ago my wife and i went to a NYE party at a hotel in Torrance.
it turned out the usual AVN NYE party had their party at the same hotel, it had been moved from MDR where they held it for years.
there was a really interesting vibe there, the porn people mix with civiesI ran into several porn starlets and they were very approachable, ofcourse my wife was on me like a hawk so nothing happened but it was still very much fun, the starlets were dressed extremely sexy and were very flirty.

Lol, you don't actually know what or why you post most of the time, do you?

As the saying goes....
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

I agree, it sucked.

It was better when it was hosted at the former Hard Rock Casino, now known as Virgin Casino on paradise drive.

Hmm. Ladies of HX niche porn awards convention? Local So Cal hotel? Each HX Local District can sponsor their own and maybe there could be one at the National level? Just a thought. hahaha
