This June, along with announcing the winners of the AltStar Awards aka AltPorn Awards presented by Bad Dragon, we inducted a few key people into the AltStar Hall of Fame. These are people who have truly changed the shape of alt and made a difference for all creators in the space.

We loved the posts made on socials afterwards and have shared those below as well.

We want to thank each and every one of you involved, from the companies and makers that support our vision for a greater alternative community to the producers and talented content creators, to all the legions of fans and friends that diligently nominated and voted to support some of the most awesome work we’ve seen. Thank you to everyone who really brought the creativity and fire to your red carpet outfits. You all put so much into every aspect of what you create and we are so proud to help channel that energy into providing a strong and supportive network for all of you to keep creating the fantastic things that you do.

Our spectacular ceremony hosts were once again Jeffrey Damnit as Master of Ceremonies and Malice McMunn as the Trophy Goddess. Once again, the AltStar Awards were a wonderful fun night with such a warm glow of community, with a wide variety of beautiful individual styles and everyone cheering for each other! Our love goes out to all the people who made this week’s festivities truly special. We love that this community is so supportive of one another and we’re here to support everyone who is putting in their best work and we hope we can recognize each and every one of you, as well as give you the tools and network you need to keep doing all the great things you do.

We want to take a moment to thank Bad Dragon, who doesn’t just “present” the event, but really believes in our vision of a positive collaborative and supportive community, rooted in the mutual goal of fostering great creative alternative sexuality and sexy fun expressions of remarkable individuality. Thank you to Platinum sponsor Zinetastic for curating such an interesting assortment of publications and helping us distribute all our own magazines (in print and digital) to all the readers. Thank you to Platinum sponsor Blue Blood for your pioneering work in the alt space and supporting this show since the early days. Thank you to Bizarre Bar Las Vegas for providing such a great venue for the ceremony too! Thank you to Gold sponsors Wandering Bard, Nothosaur, and Dark Asteroid Pretty, and all of the great companies, brands, and creators who also help sponsor this event, and contribute all the fun goodies and giveaways and really helped us grow the awards and expo even more this year and have been vital to the event’s success. We are truly grateful for you all.

The coming days (and likely weeks) will be a torrent of media, from all the fantastic photographers and videographers who helped capture all the action from the entire four days, so definitely watch that altporn-awards-photos tag for red carpet pics and more.

They collaborate with other indie creators in a community-minded way. In fact, the fisting toy CeelCee Dragon’s Unarmed Strike was cast by ShopDad and CeelCee at the 2024 AltStar Expo and AltStar Awards and Wandering Bard stepped up to actually make it into a product.

Not only this, but this year Wandering Bard collaborated with us both to continue last year’s new category to the AltStar Awards, to acknowledge the contributions of 3D Asset Design artists who are such an important part of the indie toy creation process and also to specially recognize Best Size Queen (Size Royalty). We love their attitude and are excited to have their support.

The 2026 AltStar Awards will be announced live in person on June 14 at Bizarre Bar in the Downtown Las Vegas Arts District at 1301 S Main St, Las Vegas, NV 89104. Official convention hotel room block has closed, but there is tons of info on the four day long celebration (June 11 & 12 Industry VIP AltStar Expo days, June 13 Community Fan Appreciation Day, June 14 AltStar Awards) at AltStarExpo.com and schedule incoming and tickets to the AltStar Expo and AltStar Awards are still available.

Our favorite Dark Asteroid Pretty cosmetic is their Ghostly Foundation & Lightening Potion. It is widely recognized as one of the best options for achieving a truly white, full-coverage base for cosplay and goth looks. It can be used by itself for a stark white effect or mixed with other water-based foundations to create a more subtle pallor. Ghostly white foundation goes on easily and feels so much better on my skin than anything else I have tried and it provides amazing coverage and lasts looking fresh for so long.

The brand has also recently launched a line of brushes. They are wonderfully soft and dense and they have different sizes and structures for different types of makeup application. VIP attendees who arrive in time for the VIP gift bags will receive a Dark Asteroid Pretty brush!

Malice McMunn is an icon in altmodeling. She is an AltStar Hall of Famer, has graced the cover of AltStar Magazine, been in numerous magazines and art books and has appeared in countless music videos, ranging from Ke$ha to DMX to Ministry, in addition to modeling beauty and fashion products for brands like Kat Von D, LashyDoodle, and Killstar. You can find Malice McMunn on social media, sharing dark, macabre and funny memes and photos of her hotness on X and Instagram and her hottest content on OnlyFans. This past year, she went through life-altering surgery and you can still donate to her GoFundMe. She has a vintage media store, called Malice’s Wonderland, inside Wunderkammer in San Pedro at the Port of Los Angeles.

Every year, AltStar Awards winners are selected based on a combination of deliberation by the AltPorn.Net judges panel of editorial and writing staff and votes from fans, models, and producers. You can still vote for your favorite nominees for just a short time longer.

AltPorn.Net has been doing press coverage celebrating alt creativity and the best in alternative erotica, alt.porn, counterculture, subculture, punk, goth, emo, tattooed, and just creatively offbeat sexy cool smut for over two decades and started giving the AltPorn Awards to honor excellence in alt work produced in 2010. In addition to the annual star-packed event, AltPorn.Net produces AltStar Magazine.

He has been the host with the most for all sorts of cool events, including Electric Daisy Carnival, Bondage Ball, Endless Night Vampire Ball, Escape Psycho Circus, Babes in Toyland charity, Bardo, Dancing with the Los Angeles Stars, and, of course, the 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2019, 2018, and 2017 incredible in-person AltStar Awards shows and the 2021 and 2020 virtual AltPorn Awards shows!

Always up to something that makes a splash, this year, Jeffrey Damnit was featured on TMZ (and every other gossip site in the universe) when actor Shia LaBeouf apparently found Jeffrey in makeup threatening to his sexuality for being too hot in public. Not as fun as him having the most viral of video of the EDC festival where he found someone’s phone and got it back to them, in character as the Mayor of EDC, but still a splash. Last year, in the wake of the Los Angeles fires, he helped put on a benefit at The Three Clubs called Fire Escape: Hollywood’s Fire Relief Telethon, a celebrity performance extravaganza and auction to benefit the CCF Wildfire Recovery Fund Los Angeles. In addition to being our favorite MC and a philanthropist, Jeffrey has had motion picture roles as Mr. Midnight in Free LSD and Clive in Devil’s Cabaret. He has appeared on CSI Vegas from CBS, which feels apt for our Las Vegas location. He has also done a star turn as Zombie Jeffrey in the Dave Reda’s film festival short As Good As Dead. Jeffrey co-stars with James Duval in the forthcoming Tyler Jackson feature Buzzkillers.

You can follow Jeffrey Damnit’s work and epic lifestyle on Instagram, X, Facebook, and JeffreyDamnit.com.

AltStar Expo

This is our fourth year now hosting this welcoming gathering place for the alternative community. This year, we’re excited to host our event at the historic Plaza Hotel & Casino in Downtown Las Vegas. This iconic venue blends vintage Rat Pack-era charm with modern edge. Built on the site of Vegas’ first train depot from 1905, The Plaza maintains its classic Vegas feel while featuring murals by renowned artists like Shepard Fairey, Faile, and D*Face. Its location at the head of the legendary Fremont Street Experience puts you steps away from Glitter Gulch, the original Las Vegas Strip with its iconic neon skyline, and tons of walking distance places to eat ranging from the award-winning Oscar’s Steakhouse to the open late Pinkbox Doughnuts inside the hotel to many more steps from its doors.

Network with community companies, creators, producers, makers, affiliates, webmasters, makeup artists, photographers, directors, stylists, etc. and their plus ones, during our Industry Days, or join us for our Fan Appreciation Day featuring our Artist Alley with exclusive demonstrations and meet-and-greets with your favorite alternative talents.

AltStar Awards

Cap off an unforgettable weekend at year fifteen of our annual AltStar Awards, celebrating excellence across the alternative culture landscape. Join us and and hundreds of the scene’s most influential creatives at Bizarre Bar, Downtown Las Vegas’s music-focused venue in the vibrant Arts District. Bizarre Bar is the perfect backdrop for our community—an Austin-born venue designed by music lovers for music lovers, priding itself on inclusivity and creative expression. With its spacious outdoor patio and wraparound balcony offering downtown skyline views, you’ll experience our awards ceremony in an authentically alternative atmosphere, just 1.7 miles from the Plaza. As always, the evening will kick off with our usual star-powered red carpet and open bar, followed by the ceremony and a special burlesque performance.

This June, along with announcing the winners of the AltStar Awards aka AltPorn Awards presented by Bad Dragon, we inducted a few key people into the AltStar Hall of Fame. These are people who have truly changed the shape of alt and made a difference for all creators in the space.

We loved the posts made on Instagram afterwards and have shared those below as well.

Jessie Lee

• First up, we have Jessie Lee. She appeared on many of the early alternative adult membership sites, including BrokenDollz, DeviantNation, StaggStreet, BurntFilm, and BombshellBrats. Her video work at BurningAngel was breakout performance after breakout performance. Her AltStar Award-winning turn as Wednesday in A Very Adult Wednesday Addams 3 and other BurningAngel productions made mainstream adult studios sit up and take notice at a time when heavily tattooed alt performers were just breaking through and her unique look and passionate performances helped make that happen.

jessiexlee writes:

I have been in the adult industry for almost 20 years. The longer you’re in it, especially as an alt model, the less you feel like you matter. Sometimes, fighting to stay relevant is all you can do. I went to the @altstarmagazine Awards last night to support my husband because he was nominated for male POTY (yay for him!). They started announcing Hall of Fame, and I was thinking to myself, “I wonder if I’ll ever get that.” Sure enough, @jeffreydamnit and @officialmalicemcmunn looked directly at me and announced that I was being awarded Hall of Fame!! The entire audience cheered so loud for so long!! I am still in shock and can’t believe that this is real! Thank you to everyone who supports me, and that hasn’t let me fade away into the realm of forgotten stars. I love you all. ?

Jessa Jupiter Flux

• Next up, we have trailblazer Jessa Jupiter Flux. She appeared on EroticBPM aka Raverporn and other early alt sites. Back in the days before OnlyFans, when membership sites about a specific model were called Solo Girl Sites, Jessa appeared on UndressJess.com which featured cosplay and cams before these things were a staple of alt online personas. She brought a level of content creativity and interactivity to her members that helped set the standard for future cam and fan site platforms.

jessaflux writes:

Let the gushing commence! I can finally talk about how much this win means to me.

No, I didn’t win Best Premium Social Media Star (that went to the incredible @stephanielove.official—deservedly so!), but I did win something even BIGGER that I certainly wasn’t expecting: a Hall of Fame award from @altstarmagazine.

That’s right. Basically, a lifetime achievement honor for a lifetime spent making alternative content.

I’ve been doing this since the day I turned legal. From posting thirst traps on my old blog, monetizing video chats, teaching myself editing software, HTML & streaming 12–15 live cams from my apartment daily. My entire life has been performance. Art. Survival. Connection.

My fans supported me through grief, breakups, addiction & creative breakthroughs. Some even stopped me this weekend in Arizona to say they’ve followed me from the beginning. I felt it in their eyes. It wrecked me (in the best way).

This work taught me how to feel beautiful. How to legitimately ACT. How to connect. Things I helped pioneer in this space have been adopted industry-wide, with no credit—but #AltStar saw me. They always saw me.

So thank you, from the deepest part of me. I never fit neatly into one particular box, but you made me a Hall of Famer anyway.

Even when I’m on HBO someday soon, I’ll still be here, holding a camera. My flesh will always be something I share. Why? Because I love it here.

Full emo af story, you know where. ?

Angel Beau

• Angel Beau appeared on many of the early alternative adult membership sites, her artistic and tattooed image gracing GodsGirls, DeviantNation, Zivity, BlueBlood.com, GothicSluts, BarelyEvil, and Almost Evil Girls. At a time when heavily modified altmodels did not typically get to feature dance, Angel Beau created a unique signature style of alternative Vaudeville sideshow burlesque and went on to win nearly every possible top honor for dancing, include two time Best Modern Burlesque in the AltStar Awards.

Big huge thank you to @altstarmagazine for this amazing recognition!
This was such a huge surprise and honestly it has taken me a minute for this to sink in. Probably imposter syndrome making me feel i am not worthy of this award.
When jeffrey announced my name for this and started reeling off all these sites i had modelled for and cammed for i had to take a min to listen to all those names. Most of which id forgotten id even worked for. Props to whoever dug deep for those!
Now ive had a little while to let it sink in, ive realized just how much ive done over the years! To be standing up there with @officialmalicemcmunn who was my first ever stripper friend. And who was also inducted this year too! Was just a dream. And also it is an honor to be up in the hall of fame with names that have inspired me since i was young. Such as @masuimimax i miss her wisdom and friendship everyday.
Thank you for everyone whos ever supported my online work and my crazy shows. Its been so amazing to reach so many people. I may be retiring from feature dancing. But you can still catch me doing burlesque shows here and there in vegas.
Thank you so much. Im still pretty speechless. Wow. Thank you ????
Xoxo

Malice McMunn

• Lastly, we have Malice McMunn. Malice has been an icon of altmodeling for decades. A punk rocker who lives her life as performance art, Malice helped define the very concept of altmodeling. From her wildly popular MySpace profile, to dancing at Devil’s Point and Cheetah’s, to her tattoo magazine covers, to her appearances on BlueBlood.com, GothicSluts, and BarelyEvil, to her extensive music video work, to all the cosmetics and clothing brands she has modeled, Malice has always presented her bold, unapologetic spirit in a way which has literally helped define the alt genre.

officialmalicemcmunn writes:

I started working in the adult entertainment industry in the late 90s and even after getting sober in 2001 I continued working as dancer/ fetish performer/ alt creator living my most authentic life and doing what I love. I still dance here and there for some events and secret celeb parties, and I still do my best to support the community. I am so happy to see how far society has come over the years with acceptance of this kind of work although, we still have a long way to go, and I worry that the pendulum may swing way back as many conflate what us adults do consensually with those who are non consensually so I will continue to advocate for this community of often misunderstood misfits thank u to @altstarmagazine @realameliag @23blackcats for giving me this #halloffame award it was totally unexpected and I still don’t have the best words for moments like this but it was very sweet of yall and ty @jeffreydamnit for presenting it to me. I never expected it and now I realize I really have been around forever ?? thank uuu
