Los Angeles, CA – Grooby Network performer Robbi Racks announced her first-time sponsorship of the “Best Internet Personality” Award at the upcoming Transgender Erotica Awards.
After much discussion between Racks, the award donor, and Grooby, they decided to sponsor the “Best Internet Personality” Award with the intention of awarding it to someone in the industry who uses their social media presence to support the community.
“In the past year, I’m happy to have been fortunate to have been a Grooby Girl and be able to host a solo website with the Grooby Network,” said Robbi Racks. “Now I’m able to step up and support the greater transgender community in several ways and that includes being a sponsor of the 2016 Transgender Erotica Awards (TEA). Locally, in Las Vegas, I work closely on a no charge name and gender marker change program for less fortunate transgender individuals. It is my hope that both of these programs continue for a very long time.”
She added, “In 2015, I met a gentleman that holds a strong passion in both community service as well as the rights of transgender persons. After several conversations we agreed that the transgender adult entertainment community should acknowledge those individuals, be it transgender talent, film makers, producers or staff, that use their good fortune and take from there own person time to give back to other transgender persons, whether that be through fundraising, volunteering, mentoring or other activities. So this year we’re very happy to sponsor the TEA’s ‘Best Internet Personality’ Award.”
“I really appreciate Robbi’s desire to sponsor this particular category and suggest we use it to honor not only someone who has a strong social media presence, but a person who also uses that reach to help their community,” stated Grooby’s Marketing and Editorial Director Kristel Penn. “I think it gives recognition to many in our industry who want to do more than just make porn.”
Members can expect an unique behind-the-scenes look at Robbi Racks’ sexcapades. She has also started her own production company called VegasTrannySex. The Las Vegas Transsexual will be offering a free webcam show for members each month and will be performing regularly on TGirl-Cams.com for all those steamy late night sessions.
