(TAMPA, FL) The 26th Annual NightMoves Awards (http://www.nightmoves.xxx/) were nothing short of spectacular! Adult film stars and feature entertainers flew into Tampa Bay from across the country to take part in this amazing event! All-in-all there were 17 local Tampa Bay Awards handed out ranging from Best Club to Best Dancer to Best DJ to Best Bartender. Nationally there were 27 Categories with both winning a “Fan’s Vote” and an “Editor’s Choice” vote. These included Best Performer, Best New Starlet, Best Director, Best Feature Release, Best Body, Best Feature Dancer, and many others.

The Awards Show itself featured ten amazing acts starting with live music from national recording artists “Jeff Vitolo & The Quarter Mile Rebels”. The national anthem was performed by Michael Caruso who has sung at numerous NFL, NBA, and MLB stadiums. The astounding stage acts included Lauren Phillips, Janine Jericho, Christiana Cinn, Kagney Lynn Karter, Adriana Chechik, Natasha Nova, Katie Sutra, Flynt Dominick and the Kings of Desire Male Review. Needless-to-say it was one stupendous evening!

“This was by far the Best Awards Show we have ever produced in 26 years! The stars that flew into Tampa Bay were amazing and the stage acts were simply fantastic! It was really something seeing all the talent we had on our stage … fire acts, acrobatics, swinging hoops, beautiful costumes, rappers and of course the male dance review that had the girls screaming … it was one hell of an evening.

The voting period ran from July 15 to September 15. A legal ballot had to have votes made in at least 6 categories.

The NightMoves® Awards were the FIRST awards show to allow fans to select their winners, making it the original Fan-Based Awards, as well as the FIRST awards show to allow online voting.
