Aubrey Kate Receives 5 AVN Awards, Including Trans Performer of the Year

LAS VEGAS, NV - Aubrey Kate took home an impressive five AVN Awards recently, including the coveted Trans Performer of the Year. A record-breaking year for Kate, this is her fourth year winning in that category. 

“After taking over a year off to move to New York, I realized how much I missed being in front of the camera,” says Aubrey Kate. “Coming back, I returned not just as a stronger performer, but also as a director and producer for Evil Angel, fully committed to building my own lane and my own brand. I’ve always known there would be younger, hotter girls entering the industry, but instead of comparing myself, I focused on my craft and my growth.”

In addition to winning her fourth Trans Performer of the Year Award, Kate also took home:

  • Best Trans One-on-One Sex Scene: Aubrey Kate & Austin Rex, “A Cab Named Desire” | TransAngels

  • Best Trans Group Sex Scene: Brittney Kade, Aubrey Kate, Angellica Good, Pierce Paris, Austin Rex, Sage Roux & Dom Cruise, “Let Them Eat Cock” | Transtoinette, Aspen Kate Enterprises/Evil Angel

  • Best VR Trans Sex Scene: Aubrey Kate & Sage Roux, “The Boss! Aubrey Kate Domination” | TS Virtual Lovers

  • Best Trans Movie or Series: Transtoinette, Aspen Kate Enterprises/Evil Angel

She adds, “This year alone, I shot more than 35 professional scenes and over 85 scenes for my own platforms and OnlyFans, and I ended up taking home five AVN trophies—the most I’ve ever won in a single year. Being recognized like this is the highest honor, and I’m beyond grateful that my hard work is being seen. I don’t think I’ll ever stop performing, but I’m more driven than ever to keep evolving as a director and producer and to create the hottest, sexiest, nastiest porn I can.” 

Aubrey Kate met fans all week at the AVN Expo, representing both Evil Angel and her platform management agency, Transcending. She also participated alongside fellow trans performers Foxxy, Avery Lust, and Chanel Chance at the “Trans Superstars Q&A: Celebrating Grooby’s 30th Anniversary,” moderated by Grooby’s Kristel Penn. 

Aubrey Kate, also known affectionately as the “Triple Threat,” debuted in the adult industry in 2013 and quickly became one of its rising stars. She was the first trans performer to sweep all three major adult award shows in 2017, where she also won the AVN Fan Choice Trans Performer of the Year and AVN Trans Cam Performer of the Year. She is one of the most awarded trans performers to date.

Heralded as Evil Angel’s first trans contract star, Aubrey Kate has received numerous awards, nominations, and accolades in her illustrious career. Most notably, she was awarded the TEA Transcendence Award and later received the TEA Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2025, she celebrated her debut as a director and continued to grow her successful platform management company, Transcending. She also launched her official toy line with Lightning Star.
