LOS ANGELES—Maitland Ward received four 2023 AVN Award nominations in recognition of her achievements over the past year as an actress, performer, media personality, and mainstream talent.
Ward was honored with a nomination for Best Actress for her work in the big-budget smash Drift, where she plays a familiar role as a sitcom star who explores her true self and long-held desires through a series of off-set indulgences.
Ward also received two nominations in the category of Mainstream Venture of the Year for her tell-all memoir, "Rated X: How Porn Liberated Me From Hollywood," and her Vixen Hollywood Billboard Campaign, as well as earned a nod for Best Foursome/Orgy Scene in acknowledgment of her 12-person carnal performance in Deeper title, "Sex Without Love."
Said Ward, "I am so very grateful to AVN for supporting me over the past three-plus years, and for these nominations honoring a body of work that has perfectly framed and defined my career thus far as an artist. And I really can’t say enough about Kayden Kross and her extraordinary talent as a filmmaker; there’s a very good reason why Drift is up for 10 AVN nominations: the dialogue, the atmosphere, the visuals, the music, and those little onscreen moments that are so profound and beautiful, unexpected and magical. Thank you, Kayden and the team at Deeper for taking me along with you on a ride of a lifetime."
