LOS ANGELES—YNOT Events on Tuesday announced that Chaturbate, the popular live webcam entertainment platform, is returning as a Platinum Sponsor of the 2019 YNOT Cam Awards in Hollywood, Calif. The event will take place at the historic Avalon Hollywood on the evening of August 7th.
YNOT limits Platinum sponsorships, the highest-level sponsorship available for the YNOT Cam Awards, to just four companies.
“Premier live-cam site Chaturbate is proud to be a returning Platinum sponsor for the 2019 YNOT Cam Awards,” says Shirley Lara, COO of Chaturbate. “YNOT has always known how to present an awards show that is glamourous, exciting and goes a step beyond the stereotype of adult entertainment awards ceremonies.”
According to Lara, Chaturbate is well-aligned with YNOT’s mission to highlight the role of live cam and interactive technologies in creating new and positive opportunities for performers in adult entertainment.
“There is also a mission to everything YNOT undertakes and a large part of it is helping the public opinion surrounding adult entertainment to evolve. Live web cams have provided an avenue of increased empowerment to women in the adult entertainment industry and the YNOT Cam Awards strongly recognizes that truth, which coincides very well with how Chaturbate views our broadcasters and our business relationship with them. Shared goals are always important for the advancement of everyone in our industry and that makes Chaturbate's sponsorship of the YNOT Cam awards such a perfect fit.”
YNOT’s CEO and co-owner, Connor Young, says he considers Chaturbate to be an innovation leader in adult entertainment, and he has noticed the network has a very positive and enthusiastic community of broadcasters.
“When I think about Chaturbate, the thing that sticks out to me is how much its performers just love being a part of the Chaturbate family,” says Young. “Chaturbate performers also really embraced the YNOT Cam Awards last year and it was the highlight of my 2018 to see them all have such a great time in Hollywood. From a technical point of view, Chaturbate as a platform is innovative and very well designed from top to bottom, so it sets its performers up for success right from the start. It goes without saying that we’re so very appreciative to have Chaturbate’s support as a returning Platinum sponsor.”
Once again, the YNOT Cam Awards will be live-streamed to cam fans around the world, free of charge. Attendance at the event itself is limited to nominees, their guests, and adult industry performers and executives. There will be a red carpet event on Vine Street, followed by VIP dinner, pre-show entertainment, the award show itself, and an after-party.
Regarding Chaturbate’s reputation for inclusivity, YNOT co-owner Jay Kopita says, “Chaturbate has a place for all models, which is a great fit with our vision for the YNOT Cam Awards. As a company they’re very professional and very supportive of their models, and everyone over there is just a great person to know. I’m thrilled to have them back in 2019 at the YNOT Cam Awards.”
This year in Hollywood the YNOT Cam Awards will be bolstered by the all-new #Cammunity show, a multi-day cam model summit taking place August 5-7 at the W Hollywood Hotel. #Cammunity will feature several days of educational sessions, workshops, networking opportunities and parties. Then the YNOT Cam Awards will cap off the celebration of live cam and clips performers with its big return to the heart of the American entertainment industry. Registration is now open for #Cammunity, please visit the website for details. Models can register free for a limited time.
YNOT will start accepting suggestions for 2019 award nominees starting on May 20th. For those companies interested in participating in the YNOT Cam Awards, please contact YNOT for more details.
