Rotten, there to help Evil Angel founder John Stagliano showcase his company's apparel line, took home honors as Adult Movie Entertainer of the Year at the ED Awards Show. Another adult performer, Angela Sommers, was named Newcomer Entertainer of the Year.

As AVN's reigning Female Performer of the Year, Rotten has been no stranger to the spotlight and thoroughly enjoyed the win. “I’m so excited that Exotic Dancer felt that I deserved this award,” Rotten said. “I put a lot of thought, time and energy into my feature act, just like I do all my projects.”
