Vanna Bardot, Ryan Reid to Host 2025 XMAs

LOS ANGELES — When the 2025 XMAs — the Adult Industry’s Biggest Night® — brings together the world’s top stars to honor outstanding achievement across the globe, hosting the extravaganza at the historic Hollywood Palladium will be twice-crowned Female Performer of the Year Vanna Bardot and Brazzers contract star Ryan Reid.

“To be chosen as one of the hosts for this year’s XMAs is such an honor,” Bardot enthused. “It feels like just yesterday I attended my first awards show. I didn’t think I could have a more ‘full circle’ moment than winning Female Performer of the Year again this past year, but this truly takes the cake. I am so excited to take the stage with my co-host, Ryan Reid. I honestly couldn’t think of a better performer to share this incredible experience with. Without a doubt, it’s going to be a night to remember!”

Born and raised in Miami, Bardot began her career as an exotic dancer and streamer before venturing into adult movies in 2018. Quickly making a name for herself, she realized her dreams of working with top studios, gracing magazine covers, and earning a slew of accolades. Among her many honors, she has been named a Hustler Honey, Penthouse Pet, Vixen Angel, and is a Fleshlight Girl.

Reid, a current nominee for Female Performer of the Year, has worked with marquee studio brands including Vixen, Adult Time, Wicked, Digital Playground, Team Skeet, and Hard X. She has previously earned nominations for Best All-Girl Sex Scene (2022) and Best Vignette Sex Scene (2024). For the upcoming XMAs, she is also in contention for Best Vignette Sex Scene, Best Orgy/Group Sex Scene, and Best Career-First Performance.

When she got the call to host, Reid joked, “Uh oh, the original host must not be available!”

“Because honestly, who the fuck is Ryan Reid?” she laughed. “I would have been thrilled just to be in the audience. My first XBIZ event was last year’s X3 Expo — I loved the fans who came out; they were all so cool and fun to talk to! So it felt surreal to hear I was on the radar at all, let alone being asked to host. I’m a little anxious, especially as a dyslexic person who struggles with teleprompters. But with Vanna by my side, I know I’ll be good!”

Set for Sunday, Jan. 19, the XMAs will serve as the grand finale to a week filled with industry festivities and fanfare, including XBIZ Expo, XBIZ LA, and X3 Expo.
