I dont have a whole lot of pics, but a few that i think you guys will like. i had a great show. the convention was a lot of fun, lots of fans, and lots of industry people to meet and greet. the award show was phenomenal in my opinion. some points of interest for me:
1. the fashionistas show was fucking awesome! 2. jenna jameson is fucking smoking hot 3. drunk girls in the front row cause lots of problems. lol 4. not showing up for an award is probably a bad thing 5. it should be mandatory for all male performers to wear either a sportcoat/buttondown shirt/tie/suit...something....good lord people, we make 6 figures. 6. tommy gunn had an awesome speech 7. janine is still hot, even in a gardening dress or whatever she was wearing 8. dyanna lauren is absolutely positively no fucking question the hottest girl ever in the business (see picture) 9. rocco sifredi is a god 10. gonzo performers are screwed in every category 11. criss angel is a dork and really really lame
and last but not least, the best new male performer award was an absolute fucking joke of an award. here are your nominees:
1. jerry 2. jenner 3. derick pierce 4. tommy pistol
now lets peruse the credentials.
1. jerry - lives in LA, works every day and sometimes twice a day, solid as a rock, does DPs, gangbangs, features, whatever. works for vivid, wicked, DP, and anabolic.
2. jenner - lives in la, works twice a day every day for all types of scenes. directs some stuff as well. does unreal intense scenes. a solid solid solid performer.
3. derick pierce - lives in la, works every day, does tons of feature work for vivid, wicked, hustler, always solid.
4. tommy pistol - lives in NY?, never seen him on a set ever, someone told me that he does like 2 movies a month for joanna angel and naughty america? no one that i spoke with even knew who he was.
So, you can guess who fucking won the AVN award. thats right, Tommy Pistol. What the fuck? thats so fucking ridiculous, i almost cant even comment. thats like giving the best new starlet award to kara mynor. i am bitter, b/c jerry, jenner, and derick work their asses off and were totally screwed. okay...that is all.
Damn Christian, you wear a suit well. Nicely tailored, perfect fit. I'm impressed. And you're right. When attending the biggest annual event in his industry, a man should dress up. You certainly set a classy bar for other guys to reach for.
thank you very much. but you will notice that all of the award winners and major male stars dress well......i just wish the newer and younger male performers would follow suit. its a 2 hour award show, it wouldnt kill you. :)
thanks for the pictures Christian. Agreeing with Pagoda, the suit looks good on ya. I was at the award last year and it was pretty cool. Didnt make it to vegas this year though, which i regret after seeing pictures everyone is showing off! :)
Good photos, nice suit (although wouldn't a dark suit have been more appropriate for an evening event?), and I like that you seem to be one of the rare people inside the industry that thinks in terms of what's good for the biz--not just your bank account. Even though I frequently don't agree with your views.
LOL! I took the trouble of bringing a full dress suit with me to Vegas and wearing it to the show, only to notice that maybe 10% of the guys in the audience wore suits and ties. The guy sitting next to me had on a goddamned button down shirt that wasn't tucked in - he looked like he just rolled out of bed, for God's sake. I almost felt silly. And yes, it was the older guys - 30s and 40s - who were the most dressed up. In contrast, almost EVERY girl wore a dress and heels (which certainly made for some extremely nice eye candy before the show started).
It was worth it to actually go to the AVN awards show one time just to experience it, but I doubt I'll go back again. Every category has like TWENTY nominees - WTF?! And the winners seemed random to me. The Expo is a thousand-times better - you get to meet tons of stars and dress like a homeless person!
3. Drunk girls in the front row become drunk girls on the shuttle bus. More problems!
4. Give the award to the next runner-up. The winner, if they had been around all weekend and decided not to show for the Awards show, probably wasn't worthy anyway.
5. Stern did it for the NBA, I don't see why it would be such a bad idea for Fishbein to do it for AVN.
6. Agreed. Whether you think he deserves to win or not, his acceptance speech was on the high-end of a night filled with lows (two words: Amy Ried)
7. Lord have mercy, yes.
11. I had no idea who he was until they said so and even then he came off like an asshole. I later got confirmation that he is, indeed, a dork and an asshole. Good call.
Amy acted so nonchalant about the whole thing, it was amazing. She won the award for best anal scene, and it was like her first or second anal scene EVER. Vince Voyeur - her partner in that scene - got to the stage late, and he faux-complained that he deserved the trophy more than Amy, and she was like "Here, you take it. I don't care". She seemed like she would rather be anywhere than at the Awards show.
Based on everything I've heard about Amy, I wasn't surprised at all by this whole thing. I think she would say that the whole porn industry is way too much about hype. I actually thought she'd retired already (maybe she has), and was moving on to do other things.
*****I think she would say that the whole porn industry is way too much about hype. I actually thought she'd retired already (maybe she has), and was moving on to do other things.*****
Has anyone ever seen some of her BTS interviews? Some of them are a portrait of boredom.
I absolutely loved Amy when she first broke into the industry. She went under a different name, Devin Valencia, and did a scene for Vince in "Young Ripe Melons #7 - an incredibly hot scene, and Amy seemed so wide-eyed and innocent. After her return, she seemed jaded and bored. I lost interest fairly quickly after seeing how she had changed.
I wnet through thousands of dresses.... nothing caught my attention like the one I picked. I am soo In search of red carpet pics now P. lol. Its amazing.
This is all I could find. Weird. I swear I have looked everywhere, there has to be one of the full back. wow.... People always look at my ass, and not one? Can't be true. lol

#3 - shuttle bus? Who PURPOSELY takes a shuttle bus? The only reason I got on one is because one of my friends wouldn't get onto my rented charter bus with me. grrrr......... ;) yea, you know who you are, punk.
#6 - how the fuck does Amy Ried win anything except for Best Boobs? Lame-ass performer with an even lamer attitude. :(

Mia - I agree. And btw - you looked absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!! Other than his wonderful wife who was in LA, I couldn't imagine a more beautiful or suitable date for Manuel that night. :)
Aw wow, thank you so much Tricia. You and John also looked AMAZING. When the awards were over, and we were all walking out, it was so surreal, there I was with you, John Stagliano, Jake Malone, and Manuel Ferrera. I was fucking BEAMING, I just couldn't stop smiling! And when Ava and I were presenting those two awards, I opened the card, and didn't look who the director was before I YELLED out EVIL MOTHERFUCKIN ANGEL! lamo! wow.... And when I met Rocco, I started gettin all teary eyed and had to go to the dressing room cause I felt like a fan girl. lol When can I see the pictures that were taken of the whole group at the booth?
Manuel is perfect. His looks and sexual energy match his personality. Absolutely amazing and god like. It was an honer to go with him. I couldn't have been happier. Not to mention, I got to spend some time with Jake and Manuel in the limo on the way there. I was happier than a clam. lol

You know, what they ought to do is have the awards show first, then have the expo afterwards. That way, the winners and the lo.... er, non-awardees have to spend three days cheek-to-jowl, with the winners gloating and talking shit and the lo... other deserving nominees staring daggers at the winners, muttering angrily to each other, and possibly starting fistfights. It would add a cool element of tension and menace to the expo.
Hey Christian I don't really post here much but happened to be by here today and saw your post and just wanted to speak up a little bit for Tommy. Yes, he is from NYC, as I am, and he actually does shoot pretty regularly out here for the facialabuse websites, in addition to being regular male talent for us (for our EXTREMELY soon to be released sdites, lol). I believe he as also been flown out to LA for two trips in the last 2-3 months to shoot a bunch for Naughty America, which is pretty odd since I imagine not many people out in LA will pay the expenses and deal with flying in male talent, so he must be doing good work for them. The thing about Tommy is that while he is male talent, he is a pretty talented guy in front of the camera as well. He is a great comedic writer and method actor, as well as a lead singer in a hardcore band. Now, i don't do any bullshit pickups in my stuff, I think it is lame and just totally overdone. We have a LOT of fun coming up with tongue-in-cheek intros that just poke fun at us, and at what the rest of the industry does, and this is never scripted or planned out, he is a terrific improv comedian. We even ended up turning a shower bj scene with Mia Rose into a shampoo commercial, all I need to do is give him a general idea of what I need and he just gets it and makes it his and some funny stuff comes out. As for straight up onscreen performance, he has never been a problem, he can be as crazy or rough or off the wall as either the girl or I want it to be, and he is just never a problem with wood or the pop. Now, granted, I don't throw any nasty beasties at him, but I know his other more regular gig with the facialabuse/ghettogaggers stuff is 99% FUGLY bitches. These are some of the nastiest women ever to get in front of a camera, and most of them are girls who have never worked in the biz and likely never will again, so if you can consistantly get wood and suffer through that, you are golden. These are straight up Newark, NJ skanks that I know I could never get it up for even with an elephant dose of viagra and meth! Tommy genuinely is a talented actor who happens to do porn and does it very well, that is really what it comes down to. He is cool on set, the girls dig him because he is into the scenes but not that creepy male performer trying to score after the scene, and he is always 100 percent professional. He possesses the same performance traits you mention of the other guys, he just doesn't live in LA.
Now, I can't say that is not the case with any of those other guys because I don't know them and haven't worked with them, but I also do not think it is totally fair to just disregard one guy because you don't know him or his work. I am sure all the guys you mention are worthy of the same recognition and are very good male talent themselves. And I do believe the stuff he has done for Joanna Angel has been pretty successful, so it isn't like he has appeared in stuff that nobody has seen or heard before.
Thanks for sharing that info about Tommy. I am sure that most of us were unaware about all those dimensions to this performer. In fact, I am pretty sure that the powers-that-be at AVN are unaware of all those dimensions; therefore, they likely had nothing to do with his pic as best new male performer.
Actually... we had the exact same dress. And she sat two rows in front of me. I was about to cry at first when I realised, fuck, I have looked for months for this dress, had it custom tailored... and red, is me, its classic. Sunny has great taste. I approached her after the awards, we joked and agreed never to buy Le Femme again. lol. We tried to have Steve Holmes take a pic, but it didn't work out too well. Me and Steve had a couple during the show. lol. Good times.
couldnt agree more on this...and you cant say i m bitter, cause i couldnt have won that one (but i m sure if i wore a strap-on i d be up there too :-)
When i heard "Tommy Pistol", the first words coming out of my mouth were "who the hell is that???". Never, ever heard of the guy. And i ve been around :) There are guys in that category who worked their asses off, doing great scenes everyday, who should have won. That s a fucking joke.
