Falcon | NakedSword sends heartfelt congratulations to Mx. Pineapple 2023 Bambi, also known as gay porn superstar Liam Riley, who snatched the crown on Tuesday, November 15 before a packed crowd at Heart nightclub in West Hollywood. The eclectic crowd of adult industry professionals, fans and drag stars came out to celebrate queer self-expression while raising money for Pineapple Support, a nonprofit dedicated to providing free and subsidized mental health services to the adult industry.
Presented by Falcon | NakedSword and Mr. Man, the night featured returning hosts Sister Roma and Marc McNamara rallying the crowd while giving immense praise to the show’s PlatinumSponsors: Chaturbate, Flirt4Free, SayUncle, Fort Troff and Next Door Studios, along with Gold Sponsors: BelAmiOnline, Cybersocket, TLAGay, MENatPLAY, GayVN, Peter Fever, AEBN, Doc Johnson, XBIZ and the Free Speech Coalition – all of who were essential in bringing Mx. Pineapple to fruition. Thanks to the generosity of these sponsors, the Mx. Pineapple event was able to raise thousands of dollars that will go directly to Pineapple Support.
Fans in the live audience and those watching the show’s official livestream, powered by Chaturbate, were also able to donate to Pineapple as they witnessed a crown-snatching number from Bambi along with the raw talents of first-runner-up Serenity Dai (Adrian Hart) and contestants Va’Chyna Banks (Calvin Banks), Sir Vain (Taylor Reign), and Tara Dactyl (Jack Hunter) as they lip-synced, danced, and sang their hearts out for celebrity judges Gemini Dai, Max Konnor, Rhea Litre and Morgan McMichaels.
“What a night! After two years of virtual shows, Mx. Pineapple 2022 LIVE took the event to the next level!” says Mx. Pineapple creator and host Sister Roma. “I’m so grateful to everyone who turned out. Our amazing contestants, celebrity judges, the L.A.Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, everyone at Falcon | NakedSword, and of course our sponsors. I hope everyone will support these incredible adult brands – their donations to Pineapple Support made our fundraiser a smashing success!”
Making up the audience for this first-ever live installment of Mx. Pineapple were stars and heavy-hitters including Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit, Hairspray director Adam Shankman, Vanderpump Rules cast member Raquel Leviss, queer writer and editor Evan Ross Katz, AVN Best New Starlet 2022 Scarlit Scandal, AVN Hall of Fame inductee Brittany Andrews, and Falcon | NakedSword Exclusives Beau Butler, Reign, Cole Connor, and Drew Valentino. Also in the building were gay porn favorites Michael Boston, Felix Fox, Jkab Ethan Dale, Adam Ramzi, Troye Jacobs, and Tony Genius to name a few.
The massive event even hosted a special recording of Discretion Advised, the official podcast of Falcon | NakedSword that combines mainstream pop culture with the gay adult world, that saw podcast hosts Marc MacNamara and John Hill interviewing some of the night’s big names among the pre-show crowd. These unfiltered interviews will act as the podcast’s season two premiere and will officially hit podcast streaming services and YouTube later this year.
If you missed out on any other portion of this event, don’t worry! Falcon | NakedSword has also announced that a recording of the entire show will soon be available to stream on NakedSword.com and FalconStudios.com where fans will be able to watch every second of the uncut action from Mx.
