AVN Media Network has done it again! Two-time Grammy® nominee Kehlani, is set to perform at the 2023 AVN Awards. It will be the first time in AVN Awards’ history that two fierce female performers will hit the stage.

Kehlani’s work has been critically-acclaimed and her 2020 album graced over a dozen year-end lists from Billboard, Nylon, Spin and many more.

Billboard’s Women in Music recognized her with their Rulebreaker Award, given to female artists who use their music and platform to defy traditional industry expectations and advance a powerful message for young people.

Her third album, Blue Water Road, was released earlier this year. The AVN Awards, the sexiest awards show of the year, is celebrating 40 years in the business and will take place on January 7, 2023. AVN president Tony Rios made today’s announcement.

“We are honored to have Kehlani set to perform at the iconic AVN Awards Show this January,” commented Rios. “She is an incredible addition to this year’s show and I know our audience will be amazed by her performance.”

Kehlani will open your eyes, open your mind, and open your heart. For as blunt as she may be about life, longing, lust, and love, her music occupies an elevated state above even the best high—yet accessible by simply listening.

The Bay Area-born two-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum songstress unlocks this place anytime she picks up a pen or grabs a microphone. Since 2014, her light has only continued to glow brighter.

The 2023 AVN Awards will be hosted by adult stars Abella Danger and Reya Sunshine on January 7, 2023, as part of the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo scheduled January 4-7 in Las Vegas.
