YNOT CAM AWARDS OPENS NOMINATION PROCESS AND ANNOUNCES 2021 AWARD CATEGORIES
Fans and industry can now suggest their favorite live cam models and creators for a 2021 YNOT Cam Awards nomination.
Hollywood, CA – YNOT Events has officially started the nomination process for the 2021 YNOT Cam Awards, which returns live and in-person to Hollywood on October 14th. Platinum sponsors for this year’s show are sold out and include Chaturbate, iWantClips, LiveJasmin and BranditScan.
Cam fans and industry professionals can suggest their favorite cam models and creators for up to three award categories, but all suggestions must be received by YNOT and accepted by the suggested model no later than 11:59pm PDT on Friday, August 27th. To suggest a model for a nomination, visit awards.ynotcam.com/suggest. The nominee suggestion process is explained in detail on the YNOT Cam Awards website.
While most of the award categories from 2019 are returning in 2021, three were phased out to make room for some new categories that include ‘Badass Gamer of the Year,’ ‘Sex Worker Advocate of 2021,’ and ‘Best Inked Model.’
“The YNOT Cam Awards is our night to recognize and celebrate the amazing women and men who work tirelessly in our industry as webcam models and creators,†says Connor Young, CEO and founder of the YNOT Cam Awards. “We’re looking to nominate models who want to win a YNOT Cam Award, and who are eager to engage in the process. We only nominate five models per category, so nominees have an excellent chance to take home a trophy. Win or lose though, nominees are going to be rewarded with an amazing time in Hollywood.â€
While the suggestion period ends on August 27th, the voting period will begin a few days later, on September 1st. That’s also when YNOT will officially reveal the five finalists for each award category. Voting, which is open to cam fans, performers and industry executives, will run through the end of September and voters with a YNOT ID account can vote as often as once-per-day. Winners will be announced live on stage in Hollywood, and the show will also be live-streamed to tens of thousands of fans around the world thanks to Broadcast sponsors ImLive and Stripchat.
Joining the aforementioned Platinum sponsors this year are Gold sponsors Cams.com and Nafty. The official After Party is sponsored exclusively by LiveJasmin and will take place at Bardot, which is attached to Avalon Hollywood.
“Not all companies invest back into the model community, but the ones who do deserve credit,†says Jay Kopita, co-owner of YNOT. “Our sponsors make it possible for us to produce this massive event in Hollywood, and for us to really take care of our nominees in the process. We are incredibly grateful for their support.â€
This YNOT Cam Awards will be preceded by the return of YNOT’s cam model summit YNOT Cammunity, which returns to the W Hollywood Hotel from October 11th – 14th. Models and performers interested in attending YNOT Cammunity can register at ynotcammunity.com; the event is also open to affiliates, webmasters and business executives who work in the adult interactive space.
