Most of the music world was focused on the 2018 Grammy Awards this past weekend, but Lil Wayne had other plans. Weezy was out in Las Vegas performing at the 2018 AVN Awards, commonly referred to as the “Oscars of porn,” on Saturday (January 27).
Wayne performed a 16-minute set for the crowd, running through a medley of hits including “A Milli” and “Lollipop.” Toward the end of his set, a myriad of pornstars joined him on stage to the delight of the Young Money founder.
“I died and went to heaven,” Wayne said while adult film stars took photos with him.

“We are extremely pleased to have Lil Wayne performing at the 2018 AVN Awards,” AVN president Tony Rios said in a statement. “Like many of the talent within the adult industry, he is also a successful entrepreneur having opened his own company Young Money Records. He’s an amazing addition to this year’s show and we look forward to having him.”
Lil Wayne added, “This is one of those bucket list moments for me. I’m super stoked to be a part of the awards show this year.”
