The "Oscars of Adult," otherwise professionally known as the AVN Awards, is slated to go down in Sin City this January at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.
In true rock star fashion, as only the porn industry can do it, AVN has tapped hip-hop artists such as Flo Rida and Chingy, as well as rockers Buckcherry, to act as entertainment between award announcements, performing their hit songs.
Flo Rida, who blazed onto the hip-hop scene late last year, and early this year with his album Mail On Sunday, will be performing his hit singles, "Low" and "In The Ayer," live on stage.
"We're extremely pleased that Flo Rida will be performing at this year's show," Paul Fishbein, president of AVN Publications, said in a statement. "Since we started the Awards in 1983, the goal has been to make it as exciting and entertaining as any of the mainstream Hollywood awards shows. I think with adding a performance by Flo Rida to the mix, you can see that we're making good on our vision."
The pornstar-filled ceremony takes place on January 10th, in which porn starlets and actors will bite their fingernails in hopes of taking home AVN trophies in such categories as Best New Starlet, Best Actress, Best Big Butt Series, and Best Big Bust, among others.
Porn superstars, Belladonna and Jenna Haze, are slated to serve as hosts, in front of a crowd of more than 8,000.
The event is open to the public, with tickets selling for $240, $212, $159 and $107 at TicketMaster.com.
