(Hollywood, CA) It’s a two-peat for smoking hot, glamorous, versatile, and multi-award-winning trans performer Ariel Demure—she took home the coveted trophy for Trans Performer of the Year at the XMAs and another one for her scene work. Plus, her Gender X Films feature won Best Trans Movie, making the night complete.

The 2026 XMAs were hosted by Violet Myers and Kazumi at the world-famous Hollywood Palladium. It was a star-studded red carpet and a packed house. Jim Powers’ Gender X Films’ “Transpirella” was the first to win an award for Best Trans Movie—Ariel was cast in the starring role, so she joined Jim on stage with other cast members as he accepted the award. Later in the evening, when the big awards were being announced, they got to the Trans Performer of the Year award—for the second year in a row, Ariel took home the trophy. Although surprised, Ariel took to the stage with an eloquent speech thanking her agent, publicist, and directors and studios who hire her.

Ariel’s third award was shown on the screen at the end of the night. She took home a second trophy for Best Sex Scene – Trans for Gender X Films’ epic, all-star “Trans Orgy” directed by Jim Powers and also starring Tori Easton, Brittney Kade, Khloe Kay, Kasey Kei, Lola Morena, Jade Venus, Cherry Kiss, Michael DelRay, Wolf Hudson, Cliff Jensen, and Steve Rickz.

“Wow, what an incredible night! I was thrilled Jim took home the trophy for ‘Transpirella’—he put his soul into it, and I had an amazing time playing the character. Thank you, XBIZ, for recognizing me again and giving me Trans Performer of the Year and Best Sex Scene -Trans. It’s an honor how well you treat the trans community,” says Ariel Demure.

Ariel Demure is a chameleon who could be dark-haired, a redhead, or blonde on any given day. Her smoking hot looks harken back to the glamorous Vivid and Digital Playground contract stars who heated up the screen. And although she’s glamorous, she’s also down to earth and has a sparkling personality and wit. Award-winning, sought-after directors like Ricky Greenwood and Jim Powers sing her praises for being the total package of beauty, professionalism, acting, and on-screen performances. At a young age, it was evident that she was destined for greatness when she snagged the crown for prom queen in high school. Ariel got her start in the industry in strip clubs, was a makeup artist who did drag performances under the name Liv Demure for five years at local show bars in Fort Lauderdale and worked retail before making the leap into adulthood.

With just a few years in the industry, Ariel is in demand and has worked for all the top studios and has appeared in over 150 scenes for Transfixed, Grooby, Evil Angel, TransAngels, Gender X Films, Devil’s Film, and Transsensual, and has scored tons of DVD covers and directs for Adult Time. She’s among the few stars to have a perfect 5-star rating from fans on Adult Empire. And like Tera Patrick, she was featured in two of the biggest adult publications in the same month, AVN and XBIZ World magazines, in August of 2024.

Ariel has also received countless trophies for her work, including winning Trans Performer of the Year (twice) and her scene work from the XMAs, Best Trans Acting Performance (thrice) and her scenes from the AVN Awards, Trans Premium Social Media Star of the Year from the XBIZ Creator Awards, Best Hardcore Performer, Transfixed Best Acting Award, GenderX Model of the Year, Fan’s Choice Award, and Best Boy/Girl Scene from the TEAs, Trans Performer of the Year from the XRCOs, Fandom Video Winner from the Bazowie! Awards, and Best Top, Best Three-Way Scene, and Movie of the Year from the Fleshbot Awards. Additionally, she has received numerous nominations from the AVN, XMA, XMA Creator, TEAs, NightMoves, AltStar, Fannys, Bazowie!, AltStar, Pornhub, Fleshbot, Urban X, and XRCO Awards. Ariel’s been profiled multiple times by AVN Magazine, which hailed her as one of the top newcomers when she scored four AVN Awards nominations in 2022, more than any newcomer in history.
