MARINA DEL REY, Calif. — Tasha Reign is nominated as Newcomer Feature dancer of the Year in the Exotic Dancer Awards.

The nomination brings Reign back to her beginning in adult entertainment, when she danced in gentlemen's clubs at night, while studying in college by day.

"This is too cool," she said. "What an honor. The nomination makes me feel like all my hard work is paying off, and I really have been dancing my butt off everywhere so to see that people notice is just amazing. I can't believe I am one of the talented newcomers nominated for this coveted award, and I am so thankful! It makes me want to work harder and put on an even better show each and every time I perform."

Presented by Exotic Dancer magazine at its annual Gentlemen's Club Owners EXPO in Las Vegas, the Exotic Dancer Awards honor distinguished performers and gentlemen's clubs from across the U.S.

"Each one of our nominees this year exemplifies the beauty, professionalism and talent in their respected category," said Kris Kay of Exotic Dancer magazine. "For 15 years Exotic Dancer Publications is honored to recognize the best of the best in the feature entertainment industry."

This year’s awards show is slated for August 28 at the Orleans Showroom inside the Orleans Hotel & Casino, and is one of the highlight events of the 20th Annual Gentlemen's Club Owners EXPO — the “Reunion” EXPO — scheduled for August 26-29, at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
