Las Vegas, NV — Adult performer Domino Presley celebrated a career milestone recently as the 2022 recipient of the prestigious TEA Lifetime Achievement Award. Presley also served as the star-studded event’s Mistress of Ceremonies.

“Oh my gosh, I was so honored to receive one of the Lifetime Achievement Awards this year,” Presley said. “I’ve been relevant for over a decade which is something to be proud of. It’s also very nice to have gotten some acknowledgment and credit for the work I’ve done behind these scenes and not just for showing my hole and collecting followers.”

Each year the Trans Erotica Awards honors two Lifetime Achievement Award recipients, one for their work in front of the camera (performer) and one for their work behind the camera (producer). Presley was presented the award on stage by a notable group of her including Grooby producer Buddy Wood, past TEA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Natassia Dreams, Grooby’s Kristel Penn and Rupaul’s Drag Race alums Mariah Balenciaga and Nicole Paige Brooks.

“Hosting the awards, I would say 98% of the show ran smoothly,” added Presley. “Performing with Alissah during the opening performance was the most nerve-wracking part. The second they secretly plopped me on stage in those oversized sweats with a costume change underneath I thought to myself, ‘well you can’t really back out now.’  Alissah and I have been rehearsing for three months and she created the visual backdrops herself.”

Presley continued, “I honestly feel like this was the best show to date. There was good music, beautiful trans men, women, and non-binary people everywhere, some pretty incredible speeches made, and multiple outfit changes between Natassia Dreams, Aubrey Kate, and myself. I really love how serious the Trans Erotica Awards are taken now and how big of an event it’s become. Yes, there was some drama sprinkled in but overall, the show was absolutely amazing and I’m so thankful to Steven and Kristel for allowing me to serve as the TEA Mistress of Ceremonies for my fourth year in a row.”

The 2022 TEAs presented by ManyVids took place on March 13, 2022, at the historic Avalon in Hollywood, CA. Red carpet host Natassia Dreams kicked off the event by interviewing guests in front of a dazzling outdoor media wall in front of the venue, followed by a mesmerizing opening performance by trans artist and popstar, Alissah, with a surprise appearance by Domino Presley in Alissah’s latest song, “Daddy.” Presley then returned to the stage to assume her role as the TEA Mistress of Ceremonies.
