MONTREAL — Icon Male has announced it received 14 nominations for the 2016 Grabby Awards.
"His Sister’s Lover" scored six nominations, including Best Actor for Tommy Defendi, Best Supporting Actor for Duncan Black, Best Movie, Best Videography and Best Director for Nica Noelle. IconMale.com, which offers exclusive storyline-based and forbidden sex content from director Nica Noelle, was nominated Best Video Company Site.
For more than 20 years, Grab Magazine has awarded gay adult entertainers, bloggers, online networks and more. The Grabbys will be presented live during Memorial Day weekend in conjunction with the International Mister Leather Contest on Saturday, May 28.
“We are incredibly honored to receive so many nominations from The Grabbys,” said Jon Blitt, vice president of Mile High Media. “We work hard to create unique and compelling content — to receive such notice by the long established Grab Magazine means we are doing things right.
“We’re really pleased with the Fan Favorite Movie nom for 'Baby Boy,'" he continued. "Our fans are what make us so successful, and have proven to support us in the past with our win of Surfer’s Choice Best New Site Award from the Cybersocket Awards. We hope to do so once more.”
Noelle said, “Icon Male is relatively new to the market, but the fans love our content and it appears the industry is taking notice as well with so many nominations. We are very appreciative. Tommy Defendi, Brendan Patrick, Rodney Steele and Duncan Black are exceptional actors and made our films a huge success. They are so deserving of the nominations, as are all the performers that work for us.”
