4th Annual SHAFTA Nominations Revealed
LONDON – Seventy performers, studios and productions compose the list of nominees for the fourth-annual SHAFTAs, to be presented during a gala ceremony Dec. 5 at Rise Superclub in London’s Leicester Square.
The Soft and Hard Adult Film and Television Awards, organized by Television X, to recognize excellence in adult programming, have been dubbed “the UK Oscars of porn.” According to a spokesperson for the British broadcaster, because the awards coincide with Television X’s 18th anniversary this year, the ceremony will present a fairgrounds theme.
The 2013 nominees list reads like a who’s who of adult entertainment, including veteran performers like Gilly Sampson and Charmaine Sinclair (who helped launch Television X in 1995) to newcomers Jess West and Samantha Bentley. Not to be outdone, the male talent among the nominees — including Omar, Bend Dover and Danny — also range from fresh meat to old pros. Collectively, the seven male nominees represent more than 110 years of experience in adult entertainment.
Two new categories appear on this year’s nominations list: girl-girl and amateur series. One of the most eagerly anticipated awards, Most Outrageous Series, returns in 2013, filled with nominees from the GILF, gangbangs and transsexual genres.
On Nov. 2, Television X began a special broadcast series presenting all nominated films and scenes. The special broadcasts will continue throughout November in order to inform voters, who may cast their votes online at SHAFTA.xxx.
