HOLLYWOOD, CA ) — The newly-announced XRCO Hall of Fame Inductees include some of the biggest names in recent XXX history. These pioneers have changed the adult film industry from both sides of the camera and have offered fans countless memorable moments. This year’s class also includes one of the most influential and ground-breaking adult movies of all time.
Adult legend Belladonna has won every award the industry as both a performer including the XRCO “Performer of the Year” title in 2002 and then as a director. Her unique looks and over the top sexual energy were impossible to miss as she quickly became one of the most popular female stars at the turn of the century. Behind the camera, Belladonna continued to push the envelope and has enjoyed incredible success as one of the best gonzo directors in the business.
“Belladonna is nothing short of amazing,” says XRCO’s Dirty Bob. “She won over fans immediately and changed the way people viewed female directors in the gonzo genre. It is only fitting that she be inducted at the same time as a movie she helped make legendary, The Fashionistas, is similarly honored.”
John Stagliano’s film “The Fashionistas” walked away with every possible award in 2002, including the XRCO for Film of the Year. It broke new ground with it’s stunning visual style and blistering sexual performances. It also blurred the lines between mainstream adult cinema and fetish erotica in ways most fans and critics had never seen.
Two more female performers, both huge fan favorites, have also been added to the XRCO’s hallowed circles. Ever adorable Alexandra Silk and everyone’s favorite MILF, Lisa Ann have been added this year. Both women have proven that beauty, brains and sexual energy can earn a performer numerous fans, allow a career to blossom and thrive and eventually wind up in the hall of fame.
Joining these lovely ladies in the XRCO Hall of Fame class of 2013 are director Jonathan Morgan and Film Creators Christian Mann and Rodney Moore.

Congratulations to Belladonna and Lisa Ann. The both of them, do great fuck scenes!
Jonathan Morgan is the only decent guy on the list for one reason: He’s not a sleaze and he never sugarcoats the realities of this industry. Being the cynical, apathetic, and even somewhat antisocial little shit that I am – I still think he’s awesome as hell and I’d trust the guy with my life in the event of a zombie outbreak.
Edited from an interview he did back in 2001:
“An 18-year-old, signs with an agency, makes five films in her first week. A hundred movies in four months. Her price slips and she stops getting phone calls. Then it’s, ‘Okay, will you do anal? Will you do gangbangs?’ Then they’re used up. They can’t even get a phone call. The market forces of this industry use them up. They have to do the dirty stuff or they won’t get a phone call. You’ve had a kid, you’ve got some stretchmarks – you’re up there doing double anal.”
Might want to retract that plaque for Buttman, it was the one thing Rob Black got right.
I know Lisa Ann is popular but….Hall of Fame?
I don’t see it.
Prior to her initial retirmeent she was a hottie in a 90’s generation of hotties. Since her comeback she has been busy and popular but hardly Hall of Fame material.
Well, Hall of Fame is for your entire career and any woman with a career as long as Lisa has had in this industry, is Hall of Fame material.
So Lisa Ann is in because she has been around for a long time? That’s it?
I got no problem with Lisa Ann being inducted. She has been around a long time and has done quite a bit of work. If it was a fairly new girl then I could see folks complaining.
Personally I never found her interesting as she is all plastic surgery but she has worked a long time in porn and deserves to be recognized.
Lisa Ann is a cool choice for this award and it’s nothing wrong with her. She still a hot piece of ass and most people on this site, would fuck her in a heart beat!
Ben, when the average porn career is less than two years and you have someone who has been in the industry for nearly 20 years, that says a lot. Granted, she hasn’t been performing for all that time but the point is that she obviously has something about her that a lot of people like if she is able to stay in demand for so long.
