(Los Angeles, CA / January 29, 2019) — Vixen, Tushy, Blacked, and Blacked Raw were big winners at Saturday night’s 2019 AVN Awards Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, bringing in 13 coveted gold trophies for exceptional work in erotic production throughout 2018.
Vixen Media Group, which is comprised of owner Greg Lansky’s world-famous Vixen, Blacked, Blacked Raw, Tushy, and Tushy Raw brands, was selected for the Best Marketing Campaign – Company Image award.
“At Vixen Media Group, we strive to take the adult industry to the next level, and we’re deeply moved by this recognition from the AVN Awards committee,” Lansky said. “Our goal is to create the most beautiful erotic art with the most talented people in this business. These awards mean everything to us. I’m proud of and thankful to have such an amazing, ambitious, relentless team.”
Vixen earned five AVN statuettes—three for the decadent Kayden Kross-directed feature “After Dark”: Best Drama, Best Cinematography for Winston Henry, and Best Group Sex Scene for the unforgettable “Vixen Angel Orgy” with Tori Black, Vicki Chase, Mia Malkova, Ana Foxxx, Angela White, Kira Noir, Abella Danger, Jessa Rhodes, Bambino, Mick Blue, Ricky Johnson, Ryan Driller, and Alex Jones.
“Winning these awards has so much significance for me as a woman and as a performer,” Kross said. “These two qualities have defined the way I approach my work as a director, and I can’t thank the voters enough for the critical validation. Greg and Vixen Media Group made this possible. Without their support, I never would have had the projects I needed to show what I’m capable of.
Greg Lansky was a mentor and a motivator through what has been the most fast-paced year of my life. I want to thank both him and the team he’s assembled. They’re the best out there, and I know they’re the reason I’m here now.”
Vixen’s fresh-faced series “Natural Beauties” picked up an AVN Award for Best Continuing Series, and Kayden Kross’s “Icons” won the award for Best Anthology Movie.

“This was my biggest year yet in the adult industry,” said Abigail Mac. “I am so grateful to be a part of the Vixen Media Group family. Greg has not only been a mentor to me, but a friend, as well. The whole team killed it this year. This is the greatest time ever to be a part of the adult industry!”
