LAS VEGAS—The MyFreeCams model known as Isabelle Babe flew her mother out from Buffalo, N.Y., to join her at the 2026 AVN Show this week.
This year is extra special for Isabelle Babe, the March 2025 AVN CAMStar who was a featured model in the 2026 AVN Show ad campaign and now appears on promotional images on the walls throughout Virgin Hotels Las Vegas—not to mention on taxi cabs, buses and billboards.
Isabelle and her fellow AVN CAMStars—Gia Hill, SugarBB_, Luna Cherry, Dolllface, Harley Raiyn, BabeAriel, Angel DeLuca, Pluto Princess, ItsKylie and Blair Lennox, along with Bella Anderson—joined AVN Media Network CEO Tony Rios Wednesday morning at The Theater for the ceremonial ribbon cutting to open the 2026 festivities. ItsLo, the 2026 AVN Awards co-host, and Goldie Fawn, also were spotted cheering on their friends as Rios did the honors.
“My mom's here because she supports what I do,” Isabelle Babe told AVN. “When I did the ad campaign, she was the first person I called about it. And I was like, what do you think about coming out? And she's never been to an adult convention or anything like that. And she was like, ‘Yeah, as long as people don't think it's going to be weird.’ I was like, no, they would love to meet you.”
“So now she's here, and she's excited and I'm excited she's here.”
Isabelle Babe, who will celebrate eight years on MFC this year, admits she had the butterflies about the ribbon cutting in front of a couple dozen photographers, but once it got started, “there was nothing to be nervous about, honestly.”
Luna Cherry, who is the January CAMStar, called the ceremony “really special.”
“And I feel honored and blessed to be a part of it,” Luna told AVN. “And I’m so glad we have this event because it's like our virtual work coming to life when you get here.”
Luna and SugarBB_, who was the May 2025 CAMStar, will be streaming live from the MyFreeCams booth on the AVN Expo show floor on Friday. The sexy pair already have won a Cammy Award for their duo shows.
“People like seeing us together,” Luna adds.
SugarBB_ revealed this year marks her sixth AVN Show.
“And each year you make more friends and you see more people that want to meet you,” SugarBB_ said. “So it gets more and more comfortable and exciting.”
Luna agreed, adding “We get excited looking at memories from last year which pop up and the goal is to create even more.”
The duo also has a photoshoot planned with fellow CAMStar and pro photographer, Nikki Eliot.
The AVN Show—the largest adult entertainment expo in the world—will continue through Saturday, Jan. 24. The 28th edition of the longest running annual adult expo features five separate events—the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE), Adult Novelty Expo (ANE), GayVN Awards Show, “O” Awards and the 43rd annual AVN Awards Show—in what is a complete takeover of the Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.
