XBIZ returned to the Hollywood Palladium for its fourth edition of the X3 show where fans get to meet some of their favourite performers. Given the ongoing fires in parts of Los Angeles, some industry talent from out of town were apprehensive about attending. However, XBIZ LA and X3 went off without much of a hitch.
The start of the X3 show was delayed by an hour due to a reported bomb threat. Once the police and their bomb dogs cleared the venue, we had the busiest X3 show ever in terms of attendance. The organisers run a good ship. The most popular booths were Brazzers, Fleshlight, and Ricky’s Room while the most popular signer was Violet Myers.
The show also featured a musical performance by rapper, Bia. I didn’t know her beforehand, but she was entertaining and led a raucous concert.
I couldn’t attend the rebrand of the XMA Awards, but the judges made the right call on many of their picks. Congratulations to Anna Claire Clouds on winning Female Performer of the Year, Gal Ritchie for Best New Performer, and Lilly Bell for G/G Performer of the Year.
