Carnal Media Scores 67 Nods at the 2025 Grabby Awards

LOS ANGELES—Carnal Media and its three networks, CarnalPlus, BarebackPlus, and FTMPlus, announced an unprecedented 67 nominations for the 2025 Grabby Awards. 

The Grabbys, a showcase of excellence in the gay erotic film industry, has been a cornerstone of the adult entertainment community since its inception in 1992. Organized by Grab Magazine, the award show will take place in Chicago, recognizing the most talented performances in the vertical.

The Grabbys will welcome back Chi Chi LaRue as a cohost, alongside Morgan McMichaels from "RuPaul's Drag Race." 

For the first time, the Grabbys have introduced a new category this year: Favorite Female-To-Male (FTM) Performer.

This addition reflects the industry's commitment to inclusivity and the celebration of diverse expressions of sexuality. Carnal is honored to be part of this significant moment, championing the visibility and recognition of FTM performers with its three FTM sites within the largest FTM network in the world (FTMPlus).

"We are beyond ecstatic to receive such an extraordinary number of nominations for this year's Grabbys," said Alan Breslaw, chief marketing officer of Carnal Media. "This recognition is a testament to the hard work, creativity, and passion of our talented team and models. We look forward to celebrating with our peers and fans at what is sure to be a phenomenal event."
