Lexingon Steele and Erik Everhard were left off the best Male Performer ballot. This must be a mistake, anyone know why? Manuel Ferrara is locked for best male, Teagan for best starlet, Lauren Phoenix best female performer. That's it for now.
Damn. There seem to be more categories this year. .
I don't know about locks or long shots or anything. I'm happy for Devinn Lane getting "Road Trixxx" nominated as Best Gonzo Release. I love that Jennifer Luv got a Best New Starlet nomination. It's nice to see my and Skronker's gal get some recognition. (I'm telling you, Wicked Picturs are idiots if they don't sign Jennifer to a contract with their "latin girl" search). Teagan will probably win, more for hype than anything else. Nice to see Nautica Thorn and Christie Lee on that Best New Starlet list as well.
Of special note to ADT readers: Ariana Jollee is nominated 4 times including Female Performer of the Year, Christie Lee is nominated twice including Best New Starlet, Cytherea scored Best New Starlet and Female Performer of the Year and 8 other nominations (incuding 3 in one category), Jewel De'Nyle got 1 nomination, Jules Jordan got so many I lost count, Kami Andrews got 1 for her scene with Brandon Iron in Mason's "Riot Sluts", Katja Kassin got 3 including Female Performer of the Year, Missy Monroe got two including Best New Starlet, Selena Silver got 2, both of them in the same category. Mike John, Stevel Holmes, Erik Everhard, Mason, William H, Brandon Iron, and many other industry people who visit us here at ADT are also represented in the nominations. People who have posted here in the past, such as Pandora Dreams and Katie Morgan, got nominations as well.
My biggest surprise: where the fuck is Haley Paige? If girls like Dani Woodward, Dana Vespoli, Lily and Lucy Thai qualify as Best New Starlet then so does Haley. If not, I'd put her in as Female Performer of the Year even though she's been quiet lately. And why did Devinn Lane get completely shafted in the performance categories? Her releases are infrequent but she never delivers a bad scene. I figured something would get nominated.

Man, that's a lot to sift through. It seems to me that I watch a lot of porn, but good god, there's no way I could get through enough to really evaluate these things. My strike rate is a little better in the feature division, but category after category i'm just thinking, "Didn't see that. Didn't see that. Nope."
But I like "Misty Beethoven! The Musical" for best sex comedy, Veronica Hart for directing Misty, and Jesse Jane for best actress in "Loaded," both in my critical opinion and as predictions (usually those things don't match up). And I hope Charmane Star and Kaylani Lei have a shot at best oral scene from "Eye of the Beholder," going up against the gonzo competition. It was a cleverly done scene -- but one of only five that I actually saw out of the 15 nominees.
I have to say I'm disappointed they got rid of the compilation category. That would encourage more "best of.." type dvds to come out. And lower the cost on an entire series=cheaper porn for us. Oh well.

Congrat's to everyone at PXP and great job Mason I knew you'd be a big nominee this year.
wow, im soo excited that im nominated for best new starlet! i know i probably won't win, because i didn't do anal, really crazy scenes, or squirt a litre of fluid. but i don't care, im just happy that i got some recognition..anyway congrats to all who were nominated, and good luck!
Yes, those are a lot of categories and nominations to go through.
I'm especially happy that Buttman Comics Presents... Tales from the Crack received 5 nominations, including one for David Crawford for Best Art Direction. We're also up for Best Vignette Release. You Haley Paige fans should be happy to see her nominated for Best Threeway from this movie. Jules Jordan receved 21 nominations! Amazing job, Jules!
Alexis Malone's performance in Strip, Tease then Fuck 4 is nominated in the Best Tease category. The only problem with that of course is that Alexis Malone isn't in Strip Tease Then Fuck 4.
Those folks at AVN put the Pricewaterhouse people to shame. Long live the integrity of the AVN nomination!!!
"Those folks at AVN put the Pricewaterhouse people to shame. Long live the integrity of the AVN nomination!!!"
They are the same people that nominated Taylor St. Claire and Lexington Steele for Best Anal Scene for "Underworld" despite the fact that the scene from "Underworld" involved no anal. But at least there they got the right performers in the right film. I'd think nominating Alexis Malone for the wrong film is a bit worse.
"The 8th Sin" would fully deserve Best Film award, it's the most impressive story-driven porno I've seen in years. But "Bare Stage" ? Everybody knows I'm into vanilla, but even by my standards, this one was ultra weak in all aspects (though I admit Savanna did a good acting job in it). Best all-girl ? Is this a joke ? There must have been 3 positions, and you thought they were gonna fall asleep ! Alisha Bizart & Cameron James in "Out of Control" , that 's an instant classic ! Rebecca Love should have been nominated instead of Dasha for "best supporting actress" in "The 8th Sin", but she certainly has a lower profile (and God knows I love Dasha). Now let's drink that 2nd glass of wine and re-do the world.
I could see why Lex wasn't on because he took some time off to get Mercenary Pictures off the ground but by leaving you off the list it turns the whole category of Best Male Performer into a joke. It's like leaving Jordan off the All Star game.
(Lexington Steele from Rog Reviews) I have this to say. Outside of myself, Erik Everhard is the best performer on the third planet from the sun. That this guy has not won a Male Performer of the Year award is the most insane thing I've every heard. This is a guy I have relied on for years to have my back in these DP scenes. Many times I may not have done as well as I had wanted to in a scene and that guy powered through, carrying the weight of both of us in the scenes. Erik Everhard is the best white guy to ever work in this business. I am the best black performer, ever. It is open for discussion as to whether I'm the best American ever, but I know for a fact I'm the best black performer. Mike Stefano was deserving of the award, but I feel that if the nod doesn't go to me then it has to go to Erik Everhard. It should go to Erik every year until he retires. Not until I'm done or until Mike quits. Erik deserves it every year until he quits.
Rog, are you on crack? That's a freakin' murderer's row of raging porn vixen overload, gimme a break, man! I think for once they actually got it right .
(Sorry, I have too much left over rage from the election. Gotta dispense it somewhere, LOL)
Since there is a "Female Foreign Performer of the Year" why are Alicia Rhodes and Katja Kassin on the other list. Am I wrong or aren't they from the UK and Germany respectively?
Are they too good for the foreign list or not good enough?
Hmmmm
(Come on, this is the best part of the awards, second-guessing the selections.)
As for the comment, I have no idea what you're talking about. When did I say that you were not a fan fave? I said no one needed to nominate you because there was already a list I had collected over the year. (For the record, you are in bracket 1 for Best Female Performer)
So I honeslty don't know what you have to be bitter about.
For my two cents, I'd say I lean toward Rog's position. I don't know that I'd go so far as to say the Female Performer list is "super weak", but I would say that the New Starlet list seems stronger top to bottom. I suppose this is a reflection of modern porn's "newer is better" obsession.
But I've never known what the criteria are for either category. Is a contract performer with a relatively smaller output, like Devinn or Jesse, at a disadvantage compared to a gonzo girl who cranks it out all year long? And someone like Monica Sweetheart probably didn't have as strong a year as she did last year, but I'd still take her over almost anyone on the Female Performer list. How does that shake out?
Also, though I agree that making the "foreign" distinction the way they do makes some sense, if that's the case then Katsumi definitely should be on the U.S. list as well.
As I've said before, and I'll say it again.........how many contract girls you know win a Performer of the Year title? Besides if I were nominated one more year and didn't win, I'd be up there with Susan Lucci(spelling ?) LOL!!!!!!!! I can't help myself, it's too funny. Winning an award is great but, I've never received anything more afterwards that I didn't already have. It's not a matter of who actually likes sex and the biz(I've noticed)it's a matter of who...............God knows what it is! It's all a matter of perspective.......thank you very much. Thank you so much for all your support on everything I've ever done. It's been fun and will continue to be. I keep rocking for me, for you, and for every other person that likes what I do.
Some nice entries but Katja Kassin/Michael Stefano for CRAVING BIG COCKS #2. With all due respect to John Leslie, that scene was shot better and had more intensity than the one in FRESH MEAT #18.
I'm right alongside Christie Lee. I'm just excited to be nominated. & Personally I love Christy & her performance so I know I like to see her nominated. AVN's are coming up very soon, it's crazy.
