"Babysitters" from Digital Playground will probably do very well, and maybe "Eden" from Adam & Eve. "Eden" is the best looking movie of the year, but that doesn't usually count. Vivid's "Debbie Does Dallas" will also be in the running for some awards. "Coming Home" (definitely the best acting in porn this year) and "Operation Desert Stormy" may also get some noms--but the military themes could hurt. As for performances, I don't really think anyone deserves Performer of the Year. There wasn't a dominate personality in the biz during 2007. So, it may be Teagan's year to win this award--in a very weak field. And a win by Teagan would be more of a "last girl standing" achievement, considering all the girls who left the biz this year. Same with Best New Starlet--no standouts that come to mind. If they changed it to "Most Promising New Starlet" then I'd go with Kayden Kross, who I think will be very, very, very big if she stays in the biz for a couple of years. Of the best individual performances, I really liked Monique Alexander's work in her anal scene in "Call Girl Confidential"--sexy, not nasty, but very hot. It was the best "first anal" in years. But, it's a Vivid production so it's not likely to win in this category, that usually goes to rougher sex scenes. Bottom line: IMO 2007 was not a great year for porn. Like a lot of the scenes shot this year, the biz seemed to be just going through the motions. Edited by - Derek117 on 11/20/2007 8:48:52 AM
Best New Starlet is pretty easy I think with Bree Olson being one of the top girls, Bobbi Starr won Den's award and she's great, then I'd add Shay Jordan who is very easy on the eyes and does a great BTS so those 3. As for performer of the year I'd say Jenna Haze, Bree Olson there again, Gianna Michaels. I don't think Teagan did enough to get a nom here, I'd say look out for her next year though if she's not considered a contract girl then yeah I'd put here in. As for movie, Upload easily, Fashionistas 3 easily, Babysitters, Eden and those were probably the only features I've seen that really stood out for me. Contract Girl of the year is gonna be hard with Stormy, Jesse Jane, Hillary Scott and I'm sure I am forgetting someone. Those are a few I'm looking at anyway to see if they're in there. Also Paulina James for Best New Starlet!
Bree Olsen, esp since she signed with A&E. Perf of Year ... Watch out for Annette Schwarz, unless they palm her off with a Euro prize ... though I think you could easily get an Eva Angelina.
Bono- I agree with you as far as this year for "Female Performer". I mean I was pregnant until the end of July when I started shooting again. I think next year will be more of my year. As far as I've seen the "Performer of the year" I can see going to Jenna Haze because her name has been out there in more movies this past year than most girls. xox Teagan WWW.TEAGANRAW.COM Be careful, because next year I'm coming with a vengeance!!!
Friends - Female Performer Of The Year: Brianna Love. There were people who were more depraved and did more circus stuff, but as far as I'm concerned, no one had the all around cachet and impact that Brianna did this year. She was in a lot of productions, across a lot of fetishes, was the feature attraction in all of them, and was magnificent in all of them. She had I believe four gonzo productions devoted completely to her. She was the best this year. BSD Edited by - BSD on 11/24/2007 2:06:45 PM
For the AVN awards the year ended on September 30th when Teagan was still a contract star. If Teagan was nominated it would be for best contract star and not performer of the year. She's the only contract star I watch so I guess I'd have to vote for her As for performer of the year, I think the winner will start with a B. Bree Olson, Brianna Love or Becky (Rebeca) Linares.
"Not The Brady's XXX" was the only feature I saw this year. I usually only watch gonzo. But this feature was heavily promoted and I think there's high expectations of it. I wouldn't be surprised if it was nominated.
I haven't peeped any nominees...but quick thinking here imo: Upload, Bikini-Clad Cum Sluts, Rookie Pussy, Ibiza Sex Party, Hi-Speed Sex... Best New Starlet = Bobbi Starr...Honorable Mention: Sindee Jennings for her energy Female Performer of the Year = Jenna Haze...Honorable Mention Brianna Love for her booty Euro = Annette Schwarz...Honorable Mention Rebeca Linares just because she needs to win something because of her pure awesomeness. Contract Girl = Hillary Scott...because she totally rules. Unsung Heroines = Lindsey Meadows, Jenny Hendrix, Nikki Benz, Harmony, Roxy DeVille, Chelsie Rae, Luscious Lopez. Best Director = Toni Ribas And they should maybe think about having a new category for Best Photographer?? That'd be cool?

The AVN's have become like the Oscars. A bunch of ether addicted frigid fruits make all the decisions.
Im still keeping my fingers crossed for December. I can dream--can't I?

in spite of probably sounding like a broken record i think Ryder Skye is definitely the best new talent...only problem is i don't think she has enough work to win anything at AVN awards THIS year. hopefully next year though. Love Bree Olson though.

by the talks of this thread next year will hopefully be better. every girl u mention minus bobbi starr and jenna haze is a carbon copy of each other, none besides bobbi and jenna are actual porn stars. bree is cute, dont get me wrong, but brianna love, ashlynn brooke all three are pretty much the same girl. i dunno, there simply arent any porn "stars" among the newbies. bring back the belladonnas, melissa laurens, katsumis, and jenna hazes and the avns will be worthy again
If you ask me, Bree Olson should win for both Best New Starlet and Female Performer of the Year. However, I'm predicting the votes will go in another direction for FPOTY. I'd like to think Female Performer of the Year is a race between Brianna Love and Sasha Grey. Both have been the focus of some pretty high-profile releases, and both have definitely brought something unique to the field. I'd be quite happy with either choice.
Watching the vid right now. Some thoughts: - Justine Joli's Corrupted! Love her dearly. - Penny Flame, Kylie Ireland, and Hillary Scott for Supporting Actress! Yay! - Fashionistas Safado: Berlin got tons o' noms. No surprise there. - I can't stop laughing listening to this woman read each title, typos and all. - InTERActive must win for Interactive Title. - The nomination of Total Interactive Control of Alektra Blue makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Did the voters get some special, glitch-free version that I don't have? And the video craps out right about there. Guess I'll have to wait 'til morning for the list of noms.
I couldn't get through the entire list the video fucked up right when they were doing the couples sex scene noms so I don't know the big ones yet, hopefully that will be up on their site soon. Congrats though to Kylie and Hillary for their supporting noms. I think Upload has several well deserved noms that I heard, F3 as well. The best interactive I saw this year was the Jenna Haze one for Zero Tolerance by far and this one should win. Great to see Viv Thomas get a nod for All girl release he is so good at that type film but it will probably go to Belladonna and hey she's hot so if you're gonna lose she's a pretty good person to take the win, I'm just not as much into the toy play. Looking forward to finding out the rest of the noms when I can.
Ok, I'm gonna duck and cover when I say this but... Who created a bigger buzz as a new cummer than Alexis Texas Edited by - WARRENWEST67 on 11/26/2007 10:04:06 AM
I got two words for you, Bree Olson, yeah she was at the tail end of 2006 but 2007 she was as sought after as any girl in the biz from what I was able to gleem.
Okay so i thought i was the only one who had a problem with the vid. Congrats to Hillary and Kylie. Was hoping to get the full list. Can't wait to see the rest. Been going through the forums. Abby isn't here anymore. If you need any info on release dates for our stuff you can contact me tommy@sexz.com Of course, Kylie and Eli will always have some info. But i am going to try and keep up with all the stuff for us. Just can't wait to see how many more nominations we are going to get for upload. Tons i am sure. Talk to all of you sexz people later.
I know I was trying to watch the video @ 1am & it kept fucking up on my computer. I even went upstairs on Tyler's computer & tried to watch it, but it fucked up there too. I hate going to bed anxious because I can't satisfy my curiousity, (it tends to run rapid @ a night) I'm glad to know though that I wasn't the only one the video was messing up for. I was so out of the loop last year (being w/ child & all) that I don't think I even really paid attention to the nominations, so I've been so excited to see this year's list. Congrats to my wifey, Jana Cova for the nom for "Best Interactive Dvd". I love her to death! Unfortunately, from the last time that I talked to her she said that she wasn't going to be attending the AVN convention this year & I have to admit that she will be very BADLY MISSED by ME!(& I'm sure by the fans who wanted her on display as well. I will be very sad not to get many pictures of us together!! xox Teagan WWW.TEAGANRAW.COM
I think the AVN performer of the year award is a stand up fight between Annette Schwarz and Brianna Love No one else comes close to the quality and quantity of work those two have put in this year. Nothing says romance like anal sex.
So it looks like most (if not all) of our predictions for Female Performer of the Year nominations came true. Sasha Grey, Jenna Haze, Brianna Love, Savanna Samson, and Annette Schwarz all got nominated, among others. I can understand Eva Angelina being left off this list, since she just didn't have the quantity of 2007 releases that is a major factor in this category. At least she got the Best Actress (Video) nom, and I'm more than thrilled about that. But to leave Bree Olson entirely off the FPOTY nominee list? Completely fucking ridiculous. Oh well, I must not take these awards too seriously. Nearly every category has at least 1 glaring omission, so why should I be surprised about this?
how does AVN come up with the "ethnic" nominations.....? It's like a "rap" Grammy..... what,who,when, where are these decisions being made..... I didn't rent or buy 85% of the film nominated in the latin or black category.... people who come up with these awards..are driving away lot of Black fans(and money)..by consistently throwing garbage in these categories.......
It's a great title but how is "Shane Diesel In My Ass" nominated for Best SERIES, when there is just 1 volume? I would think that series kinda requires more than 1 volume. This title should have been nominated for Best Interracial Release for sure. Maybe this is a mistake?
As far as girls... ANNETTE SCHWARTZ!!!! SASHA GRAY!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!! But you can't forget Renae Cruz...c'mon, she's unbelievable!!!! Also I LOVE Alexis Texas too!! AND Rebeca Linares is awesome!!!! Jenna Haze is beautiful and Audrey Bitoni is STUNNING!!! AGH!!! I'm sure it's gonna go to Stormy or someone like that though...it's all politics!! (mumble mumble grumble) -Plus I just wanna say congratulations to all of my friends who are nominated in various catagories: Manuel Ferrara Juan Cuba Mr. Pete John Strong Jake Malone Mark Wood Diana DeVoe Micheal Stefano (although he was overlooked in performer of the year...c'mon!) Annette Schwartz Sasha Gray Chelsie Rae Adriana Nicole You guys rock! -Also I'd like to thank the people who were in the movie I did that was nominated for Best BJ Release, "Send it Down" I'm totally siked and I thank all of the amazing girls and of course my beloved mopes who I adore and whose huge loads really made this movie! hee hee Also, thanks to ShelBlack for his awesome cover photo!!! Thanks everybody!! xoxo oh, the music is playing, I've gotta go! Edited by - kristielove on 11/28/2007 6:02:38 PM
