Every year since 1984 the adult entertainment world has been enjoying a night off from the hot and sticky Hollywood, Ca. movie sets and flocking to Vegas, to be admired on a very special night for the work that they do. The AVN Vegas awards were created to celebrate the actors, actresses, and the crew behind the cameras in the porn industry. Their goal is to celebrate the industry’s pledge of erotic artistry and free spirit. The AVN Vegas is endorsed and sponsored by Adult Video News which was started in Chatsworth, California.

The 2008 AVN awards show was a milestone for the event, since they were marking their 25th year of the awards. The insanely popular Vivid Entertainment Group took home the most awards last year, where they were credited with numerous awards in a variety of different categories including Best Film and Best Director.

While you might suspect that the only people you would see at this awards show are busty blondes and toned guys, you would have guessed wrong. It is very common to find porn actresses socializing with some very famous Hollywood mainstream celebs at the AVN Vegas ceremony. Some unlikely individuals who have been spotted or even handed out awards in past events include Dustin Diamond, Christina Aguilera, Criss Angel, Carrot Top, Sean Penn, Eddie Van Halen and Dave Navarro among others. Even rappers are involved in the adult entertainment world these days; it has been said that Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent have been funding porn films for a few years now.

The 2009 Adult Show Vegas will have over 100 categories with everything from best director to best actress and all other categories linked to erotic movies you can imagine. The awards handed out to the winners are called “Woody’s” and the recipients of a Woody are selected by industry equals and other professionals and critics of the erotic film industry. Nominees for the Las Vegas Adult Show must have movies available for purchase in at least 100 stores, and the film should have been released before the 30th of September of the previous year. The 2009 AVN Awards Show is going to be held on January 10th , 2009 in the Mandalay Bay Resort Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The world-famous Bellagio Hotel and Casino has just unveiled the Yellowtail Sushi Restaurant and Bar and invited some trendy stars to taste their cuisine. This is the Light Group’s fifth restaurant and their first since they partnered with the Dubai-based Zabeel Investments in February.

The celebs feasted on such specialties as Tai snapper, Kobe beef tataki , king crab tempura, rock shrimp, big-eye tuna pizza, the spicy tuna strawberry roll, and of course every type of sushi you can think of.
Paris dined on the beef tataki, ordering seconds and even thirds. Eva congratulated Chef Back while drinking non-alcoholic beverages and abstaining from the sushi. Wilmer enjoyed the delicacies of the famed chef and ordered table shots for his entourage.

The stars ended the night by mingling on the hotel’s terrace that overlooks the iconic lake, while the Bellagio’s fountain show was enjoyed by all. A concealed balcony offers outdoor veranda seating and a panoramic landscape of Lake Bellagio and its fountain and light show. But the best visual extravagance is the 25-by-13- foot bronze display at the lobby resembling the dorsal side of a Japanese amberjack.
