The ceremony was televised in the United States by Showtime. Comedian Dave Attell hosted the show with co-hosts Kirsten Price and Kayden Kross.
Among the new award categories introduced was Best Sex Parody due to the genre's quality and market impact. The category was one of three at the awards show where a tie was declared and in this instance The Sex Files: A Dark XXX Parody, an action-adventure send-up of The X-Files, and Not the Cosbys XXX, a spoof of The Cosby Show, were co-winners.
The 8th Day earned Best Video Feature honors and eight more awards and 21-year-old Tori Black won her first Female Performer of the Year award and won or shared five others, while Kagney Linn Karter won the Best New Starlet Award.

Changes to awards categories
Beginning with the 27th AVN Awards, AVN Media Network added a category to the awards show titled Best Sex Parody. "Because of the amount of quality parodies that studios have produced in the past year and the impact they've had on the marketplace, we've decided to honor the best of those movies in their own category separate from our long-running Best Sex Comedy award", said Paul Fishbein, president of AVN.
