Chicago – Maitland Ward was honored Saturday night with two coveted 2023 AVN Awards highlighting her success in both the adult film and mainstream publishing industries.<\/p>\n
The industrious star won the Best Leading Actress trophy for her riveting performance as a glamorous and profoundly jaded Hollywood star prowling the city streets in search of her next thrill in the smash showcase feature film from Deeper, Drift.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to thank AVN for recognizing my work for Deeper as an actress over the past few years,\u201d said Ward, who won 2020\u2019s Best Supporting Actress for the Kayden Kross-led studio\u2019s 8x award-winner Drive, and \u201821\u2019s Best Leading Actress for the 7x award-winner, Muse.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe difference between a good actress and an award-winning actress, however, often lies in the writing and filmmaking talent, and I think we can all agree that Kayden Kross is supremely talented and elevates our work to another level. So I want to thank Kayden for knocking it out of the park each and every time we shoot a movie. I\u2019m blessed beyond measure and I know it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ward also scored AVN\u2019s Mainstream Venture of the Year award for her stunning success as an incendiary storyteller within the pages of her blockbuster tell-all, Rated X: How Porn Liberated Me From Hollywood, where she openly shares her (often sordid) experiences in Hollywood as a teenage ing\u00e9nue who became a sitcom star at 21, then seamlessly reinvented herself in 2019 as an adult film superstar, content creator and the flawless face of Deeper.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis book had been bubbling under the surface for a while, and I felt like I had a unique and intriguing story to tell; I am so thankful to Simon & Schuster for publishing it, Barnes & Noble for helping me promote it, my loyal, longtime fans for buying it and AVN for awarding me with a Mainstream Venture of the Year trophy. Thank you so much for everyone\u2019s support\u2026 it means so much to me and I am overwhelmed with gratitude.\u201d<\/p>\n
