“It’s just going to be like the biggest experience of my life.” —Luna Star
When Luna Star got the call about co-hosting the 2024 AVN Awards, she couldn’t contain her emotions.
“When they told me on the phone, I had to turn the phone on silent so they would not hear me screaming—I thought it was a joke,” Luna says. “After they told me you can scream if you like, I was like, I have been doing it already! And then I couldn’t speak.
“I was definitely in shock.”
Luna will team with MyFreeCams sweetheart Emily Lynne and the notorious independent creator Kazumi as the mistresses of ceremonies for the 41st annual ceremony on January 27, 2024 in Las Vegas.
They will be joined on stage by comedian Lil Duval with a special music performance by rapper Iggy Azalea.
The group will preside over the biggest night in adult entertainment, when winners in more than 130 award categories will be announced in a show that will be live streamed for a global audience.
“Everybody at some point wishes to even present an award and even more to be hosting the show,” Luna explains. “It’s an incredible opportunity and an incredible achievement for myself. “We all know that AVN is like the Oscars of porn and to be part of it I’m super blessed, I’m super excited. I’ve been in the industry for 11 years so I guess this is my moment to show the
world what I love about this show.
“I know AVN makes every single host feel like a star and the opportunity to do comedy and
be on stage with the artist performing a music show is something I’m looking forward to!” Emily Lynne, a top draw on MyFreeCams ever since her debut in June 2014, calls the chance
to co-host “surreal.”
“I’m waiting to wake up from this dream,” Emily tells AVN. “This is an incredible opportunity
and what everyone dreams about. There literally is no bigger event above this. This is the height of our careers.”
The April 2019 AVN CAMStar recalls attending her first AVN Show in January 2015, when she absorbed the enormity of the occasion.
“I got to meet all my friends from the internet and at the time it was a big deal to meet people from the internet,” Lynne says with a laugh. “It was like getting to meet all these celebrities.”
The former Hooters cook, who now resides in Dallas, says the one constant in her life in the past decade has been change.
“Camming changed my life,” Emily continues. “I would be a completely different person if not for camming.”
Lynne tells AVN that two members of the Salt Squad—her longtime community on MFC— are coming to Vegas to hang out with her. One is traveling all the way from New Zealand and the other from California.
