Ariel Demure Snags XMA Award

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Ariel Demure has been named Trans Performer of the Year at the 2025 XMA Awards.

Later in the evening, Demure's joint venture with Ten15Group, "Gorgons and Goddesses," won the award for Best Sex Scene - Trans. The film was a passion project for Demure, who wrote the script and handled wardrobe and makeup for the entire cast, which she also handpicked.

"What an incredible night," said Demure, who honored the trans community during her acceptance speech. "These are the first XBIZ Awards that I’ve won. I wasn’t expecting any of this, but I definitely worked my ass off this year, so winning these awards is just another reward for my hard work. I'm so thankful to have a great team behind me and to everyone at XBIZ, especially Moe."
