Award season officially begins with the announcement of the 2010 XBiz Award nominations. Hot House has landed four nominations including Gay Director Of The Year (Steven Scarborough); two nods for Gay Movie Of The Year ( Reckless & Skuff 4); and the prestigious distinction of GLBT Company Of The Year!

The annual XBIZ Awards are a symbol of excellence dedicated to honoring the most influential companies and performers who play an essential role in the growth and popularity of adult entertainment around the globe. Bask in the glow of the industry’s top players and biggest stars at the 8th annual XBiz Awards on Wednesday, February 10th in Hollywood, California.

The arrival of the holiday season always seems to catch us off-guard every year, particularly in California where an absence of snow and sub-freezing temperatures belies their approach; but the Hot House Holiday Luncheon, held this past Monday at the boisterous Buca di Beppo, provided platters of tasty evidence that they are indeed upon us.

Given that the production team operates now in our 16,000 sq. foot SOMA Production Studio, the luncheon provided some rare quality time for the 21 members of both the corporate and production teams to share a meal, let their hair down, and share some good stories. Hot House Exclusive Craig Reynolds even dropped by and proceeded to put away an entire platter of Saltimbocca Chicken himself (aw, we kid you Craig, but you gotta admit, that’s an awful lot of man to feed!) Later, when he complained of being stuffed, we suggestively thoughtfully advised him to undo his pants to make a little extra room…

While it’s next to impossible to get good pictures when people are looking in 20 different directions, mouths stuffed with Cheesecake, we’ve edited a few down for your amusement. Happy Holidays to everyone from the gang at Hot House!

We are sorry to announce that adult film star Marco Berry aka Daxx Reed passed away last week. A consummate professional, Berry was always congenial and a pleasure to work with both on set and off. He recently relocated from Los Angeles to San Francisco and will be missed by friends and fans in both cities and beyond. Our condolences go out to all those who were lucky enough to know him.  The 6′2″ tattooed sandy blond with huge doe eyes made his Hot House debut in Skuff 2: Downright Filthy and went on to appear in the Club Inferno films Fisting Network and Red Hanky.
