LELO (Best Sex Toy Company - Large), Je Joue (Best Sex Toy Company - Small) and Fleshlight (Best Overall Sex Toy Line, for Fleshlight Girls) were the big Winners in the Sex Toys & Pleasure Products category at last night's 2011 AVN Awards.
The G-Ki G-Spot Vibrator by Je Joue won Best Sex Toy for Women (in August the Gi-Ki won Outstanding Product Design for Women and Outstanding Marketing Campaigns for its "The G-Spot Does Exist!" campaign at the 2010 O Awards). Sex In A Can by Fleshlight won the 2011 AVN Award for Best Sex Toy for Men, and the Couples Remote Control Vibrating Egg by Penthouse/Topco won Best Sex Toy for Couples.
LELO, a Swedish company, is one of my personal favorites: See my recent reviews of the LELO BDSM Accessories, Isla Insignia, Gigi G-Spot Rechargeable Vibrator, Iris Rechargeable Vibrator, and Mia Lipstick USB-Rechargeable Vibe). I haven't reviewed the Gi-Ki yet, but clearly it needs to be next on my list... Stay tuned!
Joani Blank (Good Vibrations), Ron Braverman (Doc Johnson Enterprises), Susan Colvin (California Exotic Novelties), and Marty Tucker (Topco) were inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame last night, and big retail winners included Eve’s Garden, New York, NY (Best Boutique-East), Babeland Seattle (Best Boutique-West), Good Vibrations (Best Retail Chain), Fairvilla Megastore, Orlando FL (Best Retail Store-East), and Castle Megastore, Tempe, AZ (Best Retail Store-West).
