2015 XRCO Award Nominees Announced

LOS ANGELES — The X-Rated Critics Organization on Tuesday announced the nominees for the 2015 XRCO Awards Show.

Winners in the 29 categories will be announced next month at the 31st annual ceremony. XRCO XXXI will take place in April in Los Angeles at a time and location to be announced later this week.

This year's show will feature a "surprise" co-host, a live performance and a new broadcast partner, organizers said.

"We need to thank all of the very qualified voting members of the XRCO — including those who have been with us for a long time as well as our newest members — for their dedication to the cause of choosing the best of the best year after year," said XRCO Chairman "Dirty Bob" Krotts. "Likewise worthy of thanks are our sponsors, all of whom help support us to keep this private industry-only event going year after year and making it the second longest-running adult event. We have some great surprises in store for everyone at the show in April that will be revealed shortly."
