XRCO Announces Nominees for 2025 XRCO Awards

The X-Rated Critics Organization has announced the nominees for the XRCO Awards. XRCO has been giving these awards for four decades. (You read that right, I said forty years.) The panel of judges is made up of currently working adult movie critics, both those who write for magazines and for internet publications. The event has a number of fun nominations videos up on LoyalFans now, which is a great place to share them without YouTube censorship. Dirty Bob, the head of XRCO, enthuses to AVN‘s Peter Warren, “This is our sixth year to release an announcement video, and every year I am amazed by the creativity—and fun … From Casey Calvert humping an unresponsive human skeleton, to Ivan getting an XRCO tattoo, and everything in-between, makes this long-awaited release simply astounding.”

The most exciting piece of news here, for alt aficionados, is AltErotic‘s Ivan being inducted into the XRCO Hall of Fame, along with receiving a Best Director – Web nom. Also nice to see nominations for alt-friendly sites AdultTime and EvilAngel, along with alt fave director Ricky Greenwood. Alt aficionados will also be especially pleased to see noms for Briella Coley, Sage Hunter, Angel Windell, Dante Colle, Owen Grey, Tommy Pistol, Nathan Bronson, Anna Claire Clouds, Maitland Ward, Ariel Demure, Kira Noir, Willow Ryder, Violet Myers, and Lauren Phillips. Full list is below.

The ceremony will be hosted by Cherry Kiss and Gigi Dio, with trophy girls Hailey Rose and Sasha Pearl. The May 25 event is open to all adult industry. You can see our past years’ coverage of the event at the xrco awards tag.
