Sarah Davis · 2026-08-07

Amber Kawaii is having a moment. The all-natural German gamer, anime fan, cosplayer, and adult content creator just picked up her very first XMA Europe Awards nominations—and she didn't just get one. She scored three impressive nods that span both her personal brand and her scene work with two major studios. It's a big deal for any creator, but especially for someone who's spent six years building a career that blends cosplay, gaming, and adult entertainment into something uniquely her own. Let's break down what happened, what it means, and why you should care. ### The Big Announcement Last Saturday, XBIZ unveiled the full list of 2026 nominees across 62 categories for the XMA Europe Awards. The roster reads like a who's who of European adult entertainment—top performers, creators, studios, and companies all vying for recognition. And right there among them, for the first time ever, was Amber Kawaii. Her three nominations are: - **Cosplay Creator of the Year** – for her standout work on premium social media, where she's built a loyal following with her creative, character-driven content - **Best Sex Scene – Lesbian** – for SexArt's "Temptress Tales," alongside Alexis Crystal - **Best Sex Scene – Orgy/Group (Mixed)** – for Private's "Two on the Road," with Nata Gold, Alice Ross, Marco Bull, and Juan Lucho That's a pretty impressive spread. It shows she's not just a one-trick pony—she's being recognized both for what she builds on her own and for what she brings to collaborative projects. ### What Amber Had to Say "This is so exciting! Thank you to all my industry friends, directors, and studios that submitted me, as well as XBIZ for these amazing nominations. Please make sure to vote for me so I can win any of these awards. See everyone in Amsterdam!" You can feel the genuine excitement in her words. And honestly, who wouldn't be thrilled? First-time nominations are always special, but three of them at once is something else entirely. ### How to Vote Voting is already open on XBIZ.net for industry members. If you're in the business and want to support Amber, head over, find her categories, and cast your vote. She's using the hashtag #rockthevote to rally support, so you'll know exactly where to find her. The awards ceremony itself is set for Sunday, September 13th, in Amsterdam. It'll be the grand finale to the XBIZ Amsterdam conference and the inaugural X3 Amsterdam event—so expect a packed house and plenty of red-carpet moments. For the complete list of nominees, you can check out the official announcement on XBIZ's news section. ### More About Amber Kawaii Amber's been in the industry for six years now, and her journey is anything but typical. Before she ever stepped in front of a camera, she earned a BFA from Laguna College of Arts and Design and worked as a game illustrator. That creative foundation shows in everything she does—from her cosplay to her content. Her name means "cute" in Japanese, and she's known for being exactly that: cute and a little shy. She's spent significant time in Japan and has worked across Asia and JAV, plus studios like Tushy Raw, Rocco Siffredi/Evil Angel, Private, SexArt, Love Her Films, TMW VR Net, Public Agent, ModelMedia, Starfukrs, and Fit18. 2025 and 2026 have been banner years for her. She was crowned a Hustler Honey in September 2025, landed the cover of Taiwanese Sexy Body Magazine in June 2026, and picked up her first AltStar Awards nomination for Best Cosplay Clip Artist. Now she's added three XMA Europe noms to the list. Fans also got to see her in a music video by Jesus Reyes. ### Where to Find Her If you want to keep up with Amber, she's active just about everywhere: - **X (Twitter):** @eurocatgirl - **Instagram:** @real_amber_kawaii - **Twitch:** @amberkawaiitwitch - **OnlyFans:** VIP page plus a free preview page - **Fansly:** for her fetish content - **ManyVids:** for a la carte purchases - **Stripchat:** for live shows - **Pornhub:** over 600,000 video views and counting She's also got an allmylinks page that ties everything together in one place. For booking or collaborations, you can reach her directly at her email, and for interviews or press inquiries, Erika Icon of The Rub PR handles that side of things. ### The Bottom Line Whether she takes home any hardware or not, these nominations are a huge validation of the work Amber Kawaii has put into her craft. Six years in, she's carved out a niche that's all her own—part gamer, part cosplayer, part creator, and clearly someone the industry is starting to take very seriously. Amsterdam in September is going to be exciting. And if you're an industry member, don't forget to vote.
