ICM Registry Returns as Tranny Awards Sponsor

BURBANK, Calif. — ICM Registry, the registry operator for .xxx, returns as a Special Award Sponsor at the 6th Annual Tranny Awards to be held in February.

ICM Registry will be sponsoring the highly coveted award of Best Hardcore Model, which includes a $1,000 cash prize.

 ".xxx is again proud to be a sponsor of the 2014 Tranny Awards. This year all the winners will also be receiving a 10-year free registration for their matching .xxx domain name and each active site will be featured on www.xxx.xxx," ICM Registry Vice President Steve Winyard said.

 ICM Registry, headquartered in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, is the registry operator for the .xxx sTLD as approved by ICANN in 2011. 

 "It seems rightly appropriate to have .XXX sponsor the category for Best Hardcore Model again this year," Grooby Productions owner Steven Grooby said. "I think it’s great to have such a large company like .xxx supporting our industry.

"Many of the Tranny Award nominated performers have appeared on our .xxx site, Shemale.xxx, and I believe offering a free .xxx domain to the winner of Best Hardcore Model is a great investment for whoever wins."

The 6th Annual Tranny Awards will be held on Sunday, Feb. 16  at the Beyond the Stars Palace in Glendale, Calif., with the official after party on Monday, Feb. 17 at Dragonfly in Los Angeles.

Pre-sale tickets and additional information can be found at www.trannyawards.com.
