TEA Nominations 2024 Coming Very Soon

Posted on January 10, 2024January 10, 2024 by Steven

We’ll be announcing our nominations for the 2024 Trans Erotica Awards very soon.

We usually announce the model categories on Twitter first and then post them onto http://theTEAshow.com. When we post on Twitter we’ll put up a nice graphic with your photo and the nomination details. You are welcome to share it, post on your site, upload to OnlyFans and generally show yourself off! I’ve got to select 100’s of photos for this, and look for the most flattering SFW image we have of you on a Grooby site, or if unable to find, then from your Twitter profile.… Read More

TEA 2023 – My Personal Thanks & More

Posted on March 30, 2023March 31, 2023 by Steven

I hope everyone enjoyed the TEA Weekend as much as I did. It was the smoothest show we’ve operated and although still room for improvement, we were extremely happy overall. Removing the interval was key, and kept people focussed and the show on schedule. The rain made the red carpet a little more complicated which was a shame, but we at least had TEA brollies ready to go.

If anyone actually listened when I was on stage, one thing I wanted to impress was that we run this show at ‘not for profit’. Our sponsorships are low compared to other … Read More

The TEA Nominations Coming This Week

Posted on November 27, 2022March 31, 2023 by Steven

All the pre-nominations are in and we’re working out the exact nominations for this coming years Trans Erotica Show. As each year there are so many new girls in the industry, I find it helpful to put this guide out to our our award show differs and what to expect, each year.

The pre-nominations are just to get an idea of models or scenes for nomination, the amount of (spammed) nominations are pointless and just waste everyone’s time. We take these nominations and the nominations from industry (company owners, producers, reps, professional reviewers, media, etc.) to come up with working … Read More

Trans Day of Remembrance 2022

Posted on November 21, 2022March 31, 2023 by Steven

I tend not to want to mark a specific day for remembering trans girls we’ve lost during this year, or previous years. As the editor in charge of posting the notices of trans models who have died on our Fallen Angels Blog, I recognise the rate of trans people’s deaths is increasing and it’s something that cannot be contained to one day. I do also recognise the need for TDoR and it’s origins (you can read more at Kristel’s post at Grooby.com) and that it’s important as a leader of a company that is 100% trans related, to … Read More

The Grooby 2023 Calendar is Here!

Posted on September 27, 2022September 27, 2022 by Steven

Each year we release a limited edition calendar of some of our favourite shots of the year. This year we chose this super shot of Jill Pill, who debuted in 2022 from one of our newer producers, Moe Scoville.

It’s a difficult job trying to select only 13 photos from 10,000’s over the year – and whittling it down to only 13 models. We try to have some diversity across the sites and producers – and there are many other models whom we could have chosen, we just felt these 13 represented what we do the best and had a … Read More

TEA 2022 Recap and Thoughts for the 2023 Show!

Posted on April 6, 2022March 31, 2023 by Steven

Thank you so much for those who came out to the TEA Show last month. It’s taken me this long to catch up with work and put the show into some perspective. This was a bit of a difficult year for us, we were understaffed with some of our staff having to isolate and a key staff member took ill days before, leaving unfinished sound and vision work. Kristel and I always do a stocktake immediately following the TEAs with the purpose of seeing what can be improved for next year … but more of that in a moment.
