The 3D 360-degree broadcast of the show in VR will be provided by HoloFilm Productions. Pornhub has revealed the list of more than 60 awards and honors that will be presented, with winners determined by “Pornhub site data and insights, as well as fan voting.” According to a company statement, “Pornhub is proud to celebrate sexual diversity and acceptance with its inclusive nominee list, along with award titles such as the All by Herself Award for top female solo performer, the the Big and Beautiful award for top BBW performer, plus the Pornhub Insights–driven Most Popular Trans Pornstar award.” Fan-voted awards include Instagrammer of the Year and Fan Fav Channel. In addition to the category awards, VICE Industry Token (VIT) will be on the scene awarding $30,000 worth of prize cryptocurrency throughout the event. “At Pornhub, we live and breathe innovation, so as to always keep our audience coming back for more. We believe this awards show will not only honor the amazing performers, but also honors the fans because of their dedication and feedback that helps us produce the best adult experience out there,” said Corey Price, VP, Pornhub. “This is something that has been in the works for quite some time. We couldn’t be more excited for the awards show and we hope the millions of our fans from every corner of the world tune in for the big night.” In addition to adult performers serving as presenters, the event will also include performances by comedians and video highlights from the Chaturbate-sponsored Pornhub Games.  Fans equipped with an HTC Vive or Oculus Rift headset can attend the event as an avatar within Oasis, the social VR world available for download at Oasis.game.
