“I wouldn’t be here if not
for you. I’m so grateful
to all of you.”
—Riley Reid, winner, Female
Performer of the Year
The Fan Award for Most Epic Ass went to Alexis Texas,
but she didn’t make it to the stage in time so Jesse Jane and
Nikki Benz accepted on her behalf and Texas joined them
backstage to celebrate.
Reid and Mick Blue won the Best Anal Sex Scene award
for Being Riley, and Blue hoisted her in the air and carried her
up the steps.
“This is amazing,” Reid said. “I want to thank my best
friend Anikka [Albrite] for letting me have my first anal
scene with her husband.” She later picked up the Fan
Awards for Favorite Female Performer and Social Media Star.
The excitable and curvaceous Abella Danger won the Best
New Starlet award, accepting the crown from last year’s
winner Carter Cruise in an AVN tradition.
The visibly moved Danger, her voice shaking, called
herself “lucky” and thanked “all the Spiegler Girls, Jules
Jordan, Airerose … Evil Angel,” and all the companies that
have hired her.
“I will not let you down. This is only the beginning, I
promise,” Danger declared.
Backstage, she was overcome with emotion as she spoke
with host Allie Haze.
“I wanted this so bad, from the moment I started,”
Danger said as she fought back more tears.
