On June 28, this year’s XRCO Awards winners were announced at an evening gala at the Argyle in Hollywood.
Founded in 1984, the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) is an association of journalists, reviewers and publishers in the adult entertainment industry. Since its inception, the organization has presented the annual XRCO Awards in Los Angeles. To become a member of the organization, critics must be able to demonstrate experience and expertise in the industry.
Unlike the so-called porn Oscars of AVN and XBIZ or the Venus Awards presented year after year at the VENUS Berlin, the XRCO Awards are presented in a small circle of experts and are not open to the public. In addition to the usual awards in categories such as »Best Parody«, »Best Gonzo Series« or »Best Director (Web)«, there is an XRCO Hall of Fame, in which representatives of the porn industry who have made a special contribution to the industry are inducted. The list of jury members and the Hall of Fame can be found on the XRCO website.
