LOS ANGELES—German trans star Emily Adaire, winner of the 2025 TEA Best Non-US Performer Award, returns as a Silver Sponsor of the 2026 Trans Erotica Awards (TEA).
Said Adaire, "Celebrating our work and our voices is what the TEAs are all about. I’m thrilled to support the event once more, though I’ll be cheering from a distance."
Kristel Penn, TEA executive producer, said, "We’ve always thought of the TEAs as a community event. Generous performers like Emily are proof of that. I’m proud that our sponsor roster includes individual performers. I think it highlights how our community buys in, figuratively and quite literally."
Adaire began her career in 2021. She has since appeared in studio productions, created her own content, and collaborated with over 50 performers in more than 250 scenes.
The 2026 TEAs, presented by Clips4Sale, will kick off with an official pre-party on March 6 at the Bardot (the Avalon’s connecting property), followed by the awards program on March 8 at the Avalon. Entertainment details will be revealed closer to the show.
