Chi Chi LaRue, FabScout to Host Grabby Kickoff Party

LOS ANGELES - Chi Chi LaRue and FabScout Entertainment on May 22 will host Skin Trade, the official Grabby Weekend kickoff party.

The fun begins at 10 p.m. at Charlie's, located in the heart of Chicago's Boystown. All proceeds are earmarked for Test Positive Aware Network, a charitable organization that empowers people living with HIV through peer-led programming, support services, information dissemination and advocacy.

Skin Trade is expected to feature some of the biggest names in gay porn. Live performances by Rascal Video exclusive Blake Riley, Jet Set Men exclusive Jesse Santana and Raging Stallion exclusives Steve Cruz and RJ Danvers are scheduled. Also on the roster of performers are Vinnie D'Angelo, Guy Parker, Eric West and Lex Sabre. Porn giveaways will be plentiful.

Admission to Skin Trade is free for all industry professionals, but a $5 donation will be asked from the general public.

On May 24, LaRue and Honey West will co-host the Grabby Awards for the 10th year in a row. Other hosts include Raging Stallion exclusive Jake Deckard, Titan exclusive Dean Flynn and Trevor Knight. Rascal exclusive Blake Riley, Hot House exclusive CJ Knight, Jet Set exclusive Aaron James and COLT Man Ricky Parks will serve as Trophy Studs.

The Grabby Awards will take place at 7:30 p.m. on May 24 at the Park West Theater in Chicago.

"Grabby Weekend is always a great time for the fans and the industry to get together and share the love," LaRue said. "It's one of my favorite times of year - like Christmas, only for porn and not in December."
