(New York, NY) Julie Simone wrapped up her time in Toronto at the Feminist Porn Awards by receiving a top honor—she won 2013 Indie Porn Icon! Although she has received multiple nominations from the FPAs, won an honorable mention for her short film/pro-blowjob PSA “Cocksucker”, and received an award for Hottest Kink Movie for “Vicious Strap-on Bitches” in 2012, this was the first time she was an invited guest and asked to speak on a panel.
“I love going to events and showing my films, then doing a Q&A. All the work that screened with mine was top-notch,” says Julie Simone. “Winning this award was a huge surprise and honor. It was truly an amazing moment, made even more amazing when they let me go up on stage and have a voice. Madison Young thanking me for inspiring her own work when she won an award was a touching moment that brought tears to my eyes. I am eternally grateful to Good For Her for giving me these moments I will remember forever. Please support them at www.goodforher.com.”
This weekend, Julie will be headed to our nation’s capital to be the HeadMistress at BOUND in DC. “Bound was the first BDSM club I ever went to; it used to be a weekly event in DC and we’re bringing it back as a monthly party,” says Julie Simone.
Featuring guest DJs, burlesque acts and other surprises, the event is Friday, April 12th from 9pm to 3am and will take place at Phase 1 at Dupont located at 1415-22nd Street NW in Washington DC. For more information on the event, go to http://bound.org/.
