2020 AVN Award Winners Announced

Pop the champagne cork! The 2020 AVN ceremony took place last night in Las Vegas, kicking off the new decade in grand style by honoring some of the biggest stars and movies of 2018-19.

Start off by watching this amazing 80-minute rundown of Red Carpet interviews, featuring AE correspondent Cherie DeVille (check out the vid on YouTube itself for a star-by-star breakdown):

Adult Empire itself was among the award winners! We captured the Best Web Retail Store award for the 13th time! Since Adult Empire entered the stage in 1997, no other retailer has come close to matching our overall haul in this prestigious category. Thank you, AVN voters!

Here’s a quick recap of some of the other victors:

Movie of the Year

Dark dramas above conflicted youths have fared well at recent AVN ceremonies (see Pure Taboo’s jet-black Half His Age, for example), and Teenage Lesbian continued the trend by capturing the 2020’s Movie of the Year award.

Best New Starlet

There was certainly no shortage of viable contenders in this category — Autumn Falls and Gabbie Carter were two other potential favorites — but the prize went to the wonderful, always watchable Gianna Dior. She can now add it to a awards list that also includes the 2019 Penthouse Pet of the Year designation.

Director of the Year

Kayden Kross seems to be stepping into the prestige-director role most frequently occupied by Greg Lansky in recent years, so it only seems appropriate that she once again won the same prize he captured several times: Director of he Year.

MILF Performer of the Year

After two consecutive wins for Cherie DeVille (in 2018 and 2019), the MILF award went to a star who arguably bears a striking resemblance to DeVille: the luminous Alexis Fawx. Much like DeVille, Fawx is one of the hardest-working MILFs in the business, and her work ethic paid off with a big win, her first in the category.

Female Performer of the Year

A three-peat? It’s never been done before, but then again, Angela White is often accomplishing feats that have rarely or never been achieved. Drive, Angela White: Dark Side, Perspective, and more spelled a big year for the star, helping her to her third straight Performer of the Year prize.
