SAN FRANCISCO, CA — NakedSword and its high quality boutique production arm NakedSword Originals have racked up 15 Grabby nominations for the 2015 Awards ceremony taking place May 23 in Chicago at The Metro.
Last year, NakedSword Originals took home top honors, winning the Best Movie and Best Director categories for FratHouse Cream. This year, their feature Dirty Rascals (filmed on location in and around Prague, in association with BelAmi) is front and center. Dirty Rascals is one of the most nominated movies of the year with seven nominations including Best Movie, Best Director, Best Videography, Best Group Scene, Best Actor and Best Supporting actor, among the many nominations. NakedSword.com and their blog The Sword are also nominated for awards this year. See the full list of NakedSword nominations below.
NakedSword President and NakedSword Original's Executive Producer Tim Valenti says of the recent nominations, "First and foremost, thank you to Mark, Stacy, and the Grabby's team for their acknowledgement of all the talent and creativity in gay adult entertainment." He goes on to say, "Our film Dirty Rascals was an absolute joy to make. It was a rowdy raucous sexy romp through the gorgeous Czech countryside. A great script by Jack Shamama, beautifully filmed and directed by mr. Pam, edited to perfection by Jessie Garcia, Comedy Central worthy performances by Connor Maguire and Tommy Defendi as well as a cast of some of BelAmi's best. How could we go wrong?
This film would not have been made without George Duroy, who as always, was generous beyond belief. Stuart, Rudy and the entire BelAmi team are the absolute best. Life is good at NakedSword."
In addition to receiving multiple Grabby nominations, NakedSword Originals has just inked a deal with relative newcomer to the industry, Killian James, the former Randy Blue star and Hottest Bottom nominee at the 2015 Grabbys, to be the studio's first exclusive model since Christian Wilde was at the studio for almost two years back in 2013. Killian is set to appear in several of the studio’s high profile productions over the course of the next 12 months. He's first set to star in NakedSword's upcoming movie Voyeur in a first scene with Falcon exclusive Sebastian Kross.
Tim Valenti says of the recent addition to the NakedSword team, "I am very excited to welcome Killian James to the NakedSword family. We have only signed one other exclusive and that was the stunning Christian Wilde. There is no doubt in my mind that this is going to be a star making turn for Killian. Expect more bold and more beautiful from NakedSword in 2015!"
