Cybersocket Awards Return with Sizzle, Celebrities, and Industry Winners

Did You See Who Was Walking the Red Carpet, Honey?

While it’s true that it’s an honor just to be nominated and everyone is ultimately a winner, some winners get a trophy, and the others don’t. During the newly revamped 22^nd Annual Cybersocket Awards held Tuesday, May 24^th at Heart Nightclub in West Hollywood, some of literally the biggest and best in the gay adult entertainment industry gathered to honor their own and bask in the adulation of their fans.

For more than 25 years, Cybersocket has been the leading resource for gay erotica. After a brief hiatus due to COVID, its annual awards show returned in-person tonight and the results were fabulous! Sponsored by Chaturbate and presented by Streamen; the glitz, glam, and so much man started off with a who’s who VIP red carpet walk and reception hosted by the legendary director MrPam and Teddy Bear, who hosts the Bear with Us, Gurrrl podcast. Once inside, guests grooved to the beats of DJ Kimber Chronic while go-go dancers performed and photo ops were pursued.

“The fans really came out to vote this year,” said Cybersocket director Alexander Rodriguez. “The winners reflect the diversity that is starting to grow in the adult industry, and I’m glad to see some surprises among the industry’s top names. We are excited to be back in the community, and we are equally excited to see what the rest of the year brings.”

Rodriguez drew the attention of those assembled when he expressed appreciation to the original Cybersocket founders, Morgan Sommer and Tim Lutz, the latter of whom passed away last year after a short battle with cancer. Rodriguez also announced the release of a nationally distributed coffee table style Cybersocket Yearbook, which would serve as an annual volume featuring the “best of” Cybersocket.

Also honoring those who’ve contributed mightily to the industry’s success and excellence were the Cybersocket Legacy Awards. Receiving recognition this year were Chi Chi LaRue and Trenton Ducati.

Hosting the event was RuPaul’s Drag Race personality Pandora Boxx. Rhea Litre and Onicks performed. Those VIP guests in attendance were presented with an assortment of swag that included Cybersocket branded merchandise with the company’s new logo, as well as toys from Nasstoys, lube from Ride Lube, and various items from Chaturbate and Streamen.

This year’s fan-based awards, in addition to returning to an in-person environment, received a record number of votes in both previous and new categories. Among the freshly added options are Best Gay Bar, Best Resort, Best Apparel, Pup of the Year, Go-Go Boy of the Year, and Power Vers.
