Way to Go Brittany Andrews!<\/h1>\n

\"Brittany<\/a>NY,NY- Hall of Fame Adult Star and Mainstream film producer wins three awards at New York International Independent Film Festival. \u00a0The bubbly blonde took home an award for Best Supporting Actress in “These Showers Can Talk<\/a>“, Best Reality Short for “My Life in Porn” and took home the Audience Award for “BLINDFOLD<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

This is not the frist time Andrews has taken home prizes for mainstream films, she now has 12 awards under her belt. \u00a0Which is quite\u00a0extraordinary\u00a0for a headlining porn actress. Many adult stars have tried to get mainstream shine like Mary Carey, Jenna Jameson and Sasha Grey- usually playing themselves, sexed up roles or appear on reality\u00a0television. \u00a0 Andrews work is a lot more varied. Her winning shorts include a 9-11 family drama, a lesbian themed comedy, and a documentary styled short. Andrews\u00a0premiered\u00a0her own reality tv pilot, which she produced and hosted, \u00a0True Cougar Life<\/em>\u00a0at New York International Independent Film Festival and was warmly\u00a0received.<\/p>\n

\"Britney<\/a>\u201cI\u2019m very excited!\u201d states Andrews \u201cThe continued success and recognition of my recent film and television work feels validating. Being a female producer in a very male-dominated industry I am hoping these awards will help encourage other women to be inspired to reach for their goals. If I can do it \u2013 they can too!\u201d<\/p>\n

Of the three awards she won Andrews is most surprised by her win for “These Showers Can Talk<\/a>“.\u00a0\u201cThat film was very exciting for me to be a part of not only to nurture the creative process from inception to filming, but it also was the first mainstream project where I appeared in front of the cameras as an actress.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued,\u201cI consider myself a producer\/director first and foremost, so winning the Best Supporting Actress award was surprising to me since I did the role just for fun. I previously had been nominated and have won Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress awards in adult films so I\u2019m to get acknowledged as an actress doing a non-sexual role in a mainstream film is a little tongue in cheek for me but I am still delighted!.”<\/p>\n

The New York International Independent Film Festival<\/a> will hold a red carpet award ceremony\u00a0in Los Angeles on July 21st<\/sup>\u00a0which will kick off the festival. The festival runs July 21st<\/sup>\u00a0to July 28th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n
