A special Lifetime Achievement award was given to surprise guest and legendary pornographer and First Amendment crusader Larry Flynt. Flynt moved the crowd of adult industry luminaries and wannabes with his heartfelt acceptance speech. “I never thought I’d be up here,” Flynt joked. “I have trouble working a pocket calculator.”
The Xbiz folks threw the party right, too: providing the thankful crowd of webmasters and other industry insiders with hot go-go dancers, rappers from Ball’r Records (including Bizzy Bone from Bone, Thugs and Harmony) and legendary hip-hop performer Too $hort.
The crowd down in the non-VIP area was literally showered with money as gobs of bills rained down from the sky at a climactic moment. Even the queen of porn, Jenna Jameson, made the scene.
