LOS ANGELES — Maitland Ward has received five nominations from the 2022 XBIZ Awards in the categories of “Best Lead Acting,” “Best Feature Sex Scene,” “Best Performer Showcase Sex Scene, “Premium Social Media Star of the Year” and “Performer Showcase of the Year.”
Her "Feature Sex Scene" nod, from Deeper's "Muse 2," is shared with Alex Jones, Danny Mountain, Rob Piper and Will Pounder.
"The tense drama, a highly ambitious project from director Kayden Kross that, according to Ward, comprised 12 days of shooting, a 75-page script and 750 lines of dialogue for her to memorize, was honored with eight XBIZ nominations in total," noted a rep.
Ward's nod for "Best Performer Showcase Sex Scene" is for "Mistress Maitland 2" and shared with Lulu Chu, Isiah Maxwell, April Olsen and Jasmine Wilde.
"Much gratitude and thanks to XBIZ, Kayden, the team at Deeper and my fans and social followers who have supported me in the nearly three years I have been in the industry,” Ward said. “Every day I show up to work is a new opportunity to create amazing performances with the best people in the business."
"I’m so incredibly lucky and I know it," she added.
The 2022 XBIZ Awards will crown the best-of-the-best in adult Sunday, Jan. 9 at the historic Hollywood Palladium. Voting begins Wednesday, Nov. 24; click here for a full list of nominees.
