Kelly Pierce Lands 2018 XBIZ Awards Nom

LOS ANGELES — Kelly Pierce has been named a finalist nominee for the 2018 XBIZ Awards.

Pierce has received a nomination in the award category Web Star of the Year, making her the first trans model ever to receive a nomination in the category.

Nominees for the 2018 XBIZ Awards were selected based on more than 8,000 pre-nominations submitted by members of the industry via XBIZ.net.

“This has been such an exciting year for me,” Pierce said. “Being the first trans performer nominated in this category is humbling and exciting." 

Earlier this year Pierce was named Best Trans Cam Model at the first XBIZ Cam Awards and is the first trans model featured on the cover of XBIZ Cam World magazine. 

“It is especially meaningful to me being nominated in this category alongside female models because it means inclusion,” Pierce added. “And everyone knows how important inclusion and equality are to me! I also want to make sure I congratulate all the other nominees!”

The 2018 XBIZ Awards will be held on Thursday, Jan. 18, at the Grand JW Marriott in downtown Los Angeles. For the complete list of finalist nominees, visit XBIZ.com.
