And The Winners Of The 2011 Tranny Awards Are…
The 2011 Tranny Awards has wrapped up and here are the winners! We’ll be sprinkling in some pictures from the event in the coming week so please stay tuned. It was a great couple of days and I think an amazing time was had by all involved. It was a veritable Who’s-Who of girls attending this year’s awards and the Tranny Strip Celebration Party on Monday night… if you were there, you know… if you weren’t… make sure you make plans for next year’s event!
Best Free Website sponsored by The UP Network
Caramel’s Tgirls : also a judge (but not on this category) Caramel is known by most as an in-depth interviewer for her site http://www.caramels-tgirls.com. She runs a great site and I’m very happy to see her get recognised for it.
Best Non-TS Performer
Despite what some think, he’s the most reliable, most ubiquitous and among the models, extremely well liked, male performer. Nobody came close to Christian’s win although Rico Steele and Wolf Hudson gained a lot of votes between them. As he was out of the country (shagging), a man with more hair, a larger cock and a better body accepted the award for him.
Best DVD Release sponsored by AEBN
Appropriate that AEBN should sponsor this as they are one of the best VOD companies online. Presented by Brittany St.Jordan, it was a close run between two DVD’s – Rogue Adventures 36 and Rogue Adventures 37, with 37, starring Eva Lin, Brittany St.Jordan, Amy Daly and Aly Sinclair taking the prize. Joey Silvera was there to collect!
Best DVD Director
presented by Liberty Harkness – it wasn’t surprising that Joey Silvera of course, collected the win!
Shemale Yum Model of the Year
I was honored to present the first big prize of the evening (the first with a $1000 prize money attached) and this was the second closest category. Over 300 members of Shemale Yum voted on their favorite 3 models. It was a close race between three models with Domino Presley pipping it both for her solo and hardcore work on the website.
Best Photographer
presented by TS Jesse. I’d tried to get the winner to come without giving away too much, a few days before and I even had some of the models try to press-gang him down there but this guy, is a tireless shooter and he wasn’t able to make it in the end. Nick Milo, easily took the win. His work for Shemale Club and their associated sites speaks for itself. Congratulations to Nick and I hope he’ll be able to make it next year!
Best Non-Typical Model sponsored by Third World Shemales
A new category this year, with some eclectic nominees (what would you expect with this title). Morgan Bailey presented and Mandy Mitchell took the award and was a very popular win. This was another $1000 prize sponsored by Third World Shemales
Best Scene
Domino Presley presented the Best Scene another new category. The judges had a lot of scenes to sit through but the eventual winner was TS Domination from Kink’s TS Seduction starring Eva Lin, Honey Fox and Sebastien Keys. Kink producers and Eva Lin accepted the award but Honey, who was in attendance must have been hiding in the bar!
Best New Face of 2011 sponsored by Eros
This is a huge award. Not only does it validate a newcomer to the industry this year, it has a $1000 prize attached and is highly contested. Tranny Strip and Eros presented.
Judges were asked to make their decisions based not only on looks but mainly on performance and expectations of where they could go in the industry. Eva Lin was the popular winner and deservedly so.
Kink Award for the Kinkiest Tgirl Domme sponsored by Kink
Voted on by TS Seduction members, Kink producers presented this award to a what seemed like a genuinely surprised Yasmin Lee, looking absolutely stunning as usual. This award also had a $1000 prize attached.
Black Tgirls Model of the Year
New model Bambi Prescott presented this $1000 award to a Nody Nadia who was not in attendance.
Lifetime Achievement Awards sponsored by Joanna Jet
Joanna Jet’s speach needs to be viewed by all models and producers, reminding people, especially those that chose not to participate or sponsor, for pedantic reasoning, why they should have been there that night. It’s not about the producers, the models or the businesses – we are here because of the FANS!
Joey Silvera received the first accolade and his 3rd of the night while his muse Vaniity, who had stated she’d be in attendance but didn’t show, received the second.
Best Solo Website
Previous winner Delia Delions presented the Best Solo Model Website, which was a close run between two sites with http://www.mandy-mitchell.com/ the winner. This was a popular choice and would have been mine also. Mandy is producing porn on her own terms and likes and her creativity, imagination and downright nastiness (in a good way) deserves this recognition.
Shemale Strokers Model of the Year sponsored by Shemale Strokers
Steviee from Shemale Strokers, presented this much anticipated members choice award to …. Delia Delions!!! A $1000 prize money was also attached to this award!
Best Hardcore Performer sponsored by Tranny Box
The lovely Yasmin Lee presented this highly contested award with $1000 prize and Eva Lin collected her second win of the night. Yasmin and Eva are friends which made it all the more poignant and their excitement may have contributed to Eva dropping (and smashing) the stunt trophy!
Best Solo Performer sponsored by Cam4 Shemale Cams
With the night about to ascend into chaos … the stunning Hazel Tucker took the stage to present the readers choice award for the Best Solo Model as voted by members of HungAngels, Hungdevils, TS Chatter, Transladyboy and particpating websites, etc. This was a very very close race but the stunning Sarina Valentina took the $1000 prize and a very nice glass dildo presented by Simply Blown Sarina was unable to attend so another SMC girl was asked to collect and crawling over a table at the time, MC Nicole asked Morgan Bailey to come collect on her behalf. Morgan quickly made it to the stage but the noise and her intoxication (as well as Jessica Foxx trying to storm the stage) made for a noisy and hilarious ending to a great show.
The party continued until 2am and a good time was had by all.
