LOS ANGELES—Vanniall captured one of the top honors at the 2026 Trans Erotica Awards, taking home the Pornhub Model of the Year trophy during the ceremony held March 8 at the Avalon in Hollywood.
Vanniall’s win reflects a year of major growth across her digital presence, including more than 72,000 subscribers and over 24.5 million views on her Pornhub page, alongside a combined social reach exceeding one million followers in various platforms.
During Vanniall's acceptance speech, she said, "This award means an incredible amount to me! About five years ago I received a diagnosis that I was sure would change my life and my career. I was sure that I was done, finished, benched. I stand here in front of you tonight feeling very much changed, but for the better! And nowhere near finished!"
Vanniall thanked her loving spouse for their support, along with "The Diamond Heist" co-star Papi Malo and producer Bakari for their love and collaboration. She also thanked her fans for believing in her.
