Because 2020, the XRCO Committee put together a great video announcing their 2020 Slate of Nominees which you can see over at their AVN Stars page.
It features an impressive roster of stars – past and present – reading off the nominations for the coming year. Here are some of the stars: Alex Coal. Alexandria Silk, Angela White, Aria Khaide, Ariana Marie, Britney Amber, Cherry Kiss, Dani Daniels, Dee Siren, Ember Snow, Evan Stone, Felicia Fox, Gianna Dior, Jada Kai, Jillian Janson, Joanna Angel, Katie Morgan, Kelly Shibari, Kenzie Madison, Lauren Phillips, Lexi Luna, Luc Wylder, Mike Horner, Miles Long, Porno Dan Leal, Richard Pacheco, Shelby Paris, Tanya Tate, Val Dodds, Will Ryder…
(As an aside, we would have liked to have seen a bit more representation in the talent – I don’t want to throw around #XRCOSoWhite but it might have been nice to have some Black and Trans talent involved in the nomination presentation. Maybe we can do better in the awards presentation?)
