Winners will receive trophies at an awards ceremony in Vancouver, BC, Canada on June 9, 2011. We will send trophies to those winners who cannot make it to the ceremony. Please nominate for as many categories as you want. And in case there is more than one favourite of yours, you are allowed unlimited nominations in each category. You can even nominate yourself! Nominators are confidential, so you can nominate whomever you want.

Members of Naked Truth will vote (using the polls section) for their favourites from November 1st until December 31st of this year. At that time, any categories that do not have any nominees will be put aside until next year's awards, when they will be opened up again for nominations.

Please invite friends to The Naked Truth to nominate and vote for their favourites too. We do a lot of great work in this industry. Let's celebrate the positive! And give recognition to the best of the best.

History of the Awards

We’ve had exotic dance competitions, film festivals, and porn awards, but we’ve never had anything like this!

The Naked Truth is bringing together the most positive and successful members of the adult entertainment industry from across the board – Adult Film, Exotic Dance, Coworkers, Business Owners, Patrons and more – all under one roof.

This is your chance to mingle with XXX celebrities and influential players in the adult entertainment industry. The very best adult entertainers will mesmerize guests as they perform award-winning shows for their colleagues and allies.

Following the ceremony, guests are invited to network and socialize with the who’s who in adult entertainment. High attendance is predicted.

The motivation for these awards is twofold:

1.    Celebrate the positive aspects of the adult entertainment industry. Give entertainers something to be proud of. Demonstrate to the mainstream community that adult entertainers are skilled workers and deserve to be recognized for their valuable contributions.
2.    Promote the best, most ethical, and most favoured adult entertainment industry members and businesses. Encourage all industry members to be unfailingly professional; and let patrons know whom to support with their dollars.

What is especially unique about The Naked Truth Awards is that they include all adult entertainment participants, including coworkers such as photographers, costume designers, and agents; as well as business owners and patrons. But the emphasis is on the entertainers. Where are the best places to work? Who are the best coworkers to work with? What industry resources are most cherished?

Join us for the awards on June 9 (6/9) and be sure to nominate and vote for your favourites every year!
