LOS ANGELES—Eve Sweet attended the first AVN Awards Show of her career in January—and it turned into an experience that she’ll never forget.
Not only did she grace the industry’s biggest stage to present three awards during the 42nd annual ceremony, she also won 2025 AVN International Female Performer of the Year—the top individual honor for a performer based outside the U.S.—on January 25 at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.
Sweet, who was born in Romania, lived for over decade in Spain and now resides in Paris, said receiving her first AVN trophy was special.
“Winning International Performer of the Year is really a big dream coming true for me,” Eve told AVN. “I have never thought I would get to win it in my first AVN experience.
“I wont lie, it was a lot of emotions for me this AVN. Lots of fans came to meet me and it was really nice to meet each and every one of them and going home with that award was just fulfilling my heart.”
She continued, “I went to pick it up with the biggest smile ever... And being recognized internationally, wow! I think I have a big angel taking care of me.
“I hope my work will inspire other performers and maybe one day we can shoot real sex on camera with real emotions. I would say this award is not even for me, but for all those orgasms I manage to have on set! All the fun and nice moments.”
Sweet pointed to two milestone scenes that were her most memorable of 2024: her first anal with reigning International Male Performer of the Year Christian Clay for the 2025 Best International Production, Hotel Vixen Season 2; and her first DP for Long Con, another crossover feature for Vixen Media Group. Both scenes were directed by Julia Grandi, who captured Best Directing Portfolio - International.
“It was a crazy year and I have been shooting many other stuff that are not yet released so… prepare yourself because it’s a nice surprise,” Eve said. “I wont lie… I took [the trophy] with me to my trip to LA and the Dominican and I took it out of my bag on each hotel to look at it every morning and make sure I know who I am—like this, there is no way I go down.”
She also celebrated her win by treating herself to some beautiful flowers, going out with some friends and drinking champagne.
“My mum and my brother called and let me know how proud they are of me,” continued Sweet, who started her career on iStripper in July 2020. “I can’t complain, I am surrounded by great people.”
Without question, Sweet is on a roll. She and fellow European star Agatha Vega in December were crowned Vixen Angels in Paris at a historic hotel with picturesque views of the Seine River and Eiffel Tower.
They toured the city and enjoyed dinner at the legendary restaurant Boeuf sur le Toit along with fellow Vixen Angels Valentina Nappi, Avery Cristy, Stefany Kyler and Nancy Ace.
Meanwhile, Sweet dazzled in her Vixen Angel photoshoot at a renowned cabaret hall; she also received the custom Tiffany brilliant-cut diamond “V” necklace before an intimate breakfast-in-bed with Vega in a penthouse suite.
“My experience being crowned Vixen Angel in Paris was a dream!” said Sweet, a former train stewardess on Spain’s national railray who speaks Romanian, Spanish, French and English. “I was lucky to have the company of Agatha and the rest of the beautiful Angels!
“They took us to party, which was incredibly fun with good food, champagne never missing of course, and great company! The pictures and the outfits made me feel so sexy and beautiful. Vixen is always taking amazing care of us but this time was special. I’m really grateful for everything and everyone who was there.
“Julia Grandi was there all the time and making sure we are having fun and feeling… well, special and unique. I was nervous about it but I came back to my place tired and full of great memories and nice pics and a beautiful necklace that I wear very proudly.”
Sweet reveals that her plans for 2025 “are a bit big”—and she can’t share them just yet.
“For sure what I know is that I will leave Paris. I will really miss this city. I love coming back, so for sure I will keep coming back because it feels like home,” she said. “Loki, my dog, and I will move to a new country. I will make amazing shootings and I’m ready to make some great collabs for my OnlyFans!
“I’m just planning to enjoy the year and have lots of fun on set as always! I already start the year with an award!”
Eve added, “A contract with SLR and my debut for Brazzers—and Hotel Vixen 3! What can be better than this start? I’m just grateful for everything. Cheers to success and life.”
