Alt-Stars Ignite Las Vegas: Cubbi Thompson, Little Puck & Tigerlilly Lead a Night of Epic Wins at the 2025 AltStar Awards

Las Vegas was buzzing with pure, unfiltered creative energy as the alternative adult scene’s biggest and brightest gathered at the Swan Dive for the 2025 AltStar Awards. Hosted by the dynamic duo of Jeffrey Damnit and Alicia Mcmunn, the night was a full-throttle celebration of the indie spirit, honoring the creators who are rewriting the rules of the game. And let’s just say, the winners’ circle was absolutely electric.

The Reigning Queens of Alt

The night’s top honors went to performers who have built massive followings through raw authenticity and a direct-to-fan connection. The coveted Best Female Performer of the Year award was snagged by the incomparable Little Puck, a creator known for pushing boundaries and delivering consistently stunning work. Her win was met with a massive ovation from her peers, a true testament to her impact on the scene.

But the fans had their say, and they shouted it loud and clear, crowning Cubbi Thompson as the Fan Favorite Female Performer of the Year. Holding her trophy, an emotional Cubbi couldn’t stop thanking the community that lifted her up.

“This is… wow. The ‘Fan Favorite’ award is the one that hits you right in the heart,” Thompson shared backstage. “It’s not from a panel, it’s from the people I connect with every single day. My fans are everything, and this proves that what we’re building together is real. Thank you!”

The celebration of fan-powered success didn’t stop there. Tigerlilly took home the trophy for Fan Favorite Inked Clip Artist, a huge win that highlights the power of niche communities in the alt-space. Her unique blend of art and sensuality has clearly struck a chord.

“My ink is my story, and sharing that through my art is what I live for,” Tigerlilly beamed. “To know that so many people connect with that vision… it’s the most incredible feeling in the world. This one’s for all the ink lovers out there!”

A Victory for the Independent Spirit

This year’s awards felt like a major statement about the direction of the industry. It was a massive win for creator-owned platforms and indie artists, with sites like LoyalFans being named Best Premium Social Media Site for Indie Artists and AltErotic winning Best AltPorn Membership Site. These wins underscore a major trend: creators are thriving by taking control of their content and building their own empires, one fan at a time.

The awards also spotlighted the diverse creativity within the community. Director Proxy Paige won Best Gonzo AltPorn Video for her feature Gape Escape, proving that performers are becoming powerhouse directors. Meanwhile, fan-voted categories for everything from Best Cosplay Cam (RinCity) to Fan Favorite Nerd Cam (Kimmie Gibbler) showed just how varied and vibrant the alt-scene truly is.

And let’s not forget the toys! In a category as wild and creative as the performers themselves, the Chaos Beast by Wandering Bard took home Best Sex Toy, while Hankey’s Toys’ delightfully quirky Banana Dildo won the fan favorite award.

The Alt-Revolution Continues

As the night wrapped up, the message was clear. The alternative scene isn’t just a “niche” anymore—it’s a leading force of innovation, connection, and raw, unapologetic creativity. With powerhouse performers like Little Puck, fan-driven stars like Cubbi Thompson, and trailblazers like Tigerlilly leading the charge, the future looks brighter and bolder than ever.

As host Jeffrey Damnit put it to close the show, “Look around this room. The talent, the passion, the independence… this isn’t just an awards show. It’s a revolution. And it’s just getting started.”
