“Best Actor” LMFAO
How is someone a supporting actor in porn, exactly? Doesn’t it take both (all) partners to put in an equal amount of work? #confused
Some of the nominees for Performer of the year are certainly….interesting. I’ve never heard of Jayden Marcos. Tristan hunter is cute but to be completely transparent, he doesn’t have a memorable scene except for the one he did with Cade Maddox a year ago but his scenes are always a snoozefest and a chore to get through.
You’ve never heard of Jayden Marcos??? OMG you are missing out. He is such a great performer and has all the goods. Most of is stuff has been with Next Door Studios and Gay Hoopla. Although he has also worked with Disruptive Films, Rod’s Room, and Active Duty as well.
It all comes down to which performer will get down on their knees and suck dick and bend over to win an award. Whores being whores.
Says a judgmental prick.
Performers of the year: Brandon Anderson, Jayden Marcos. Roman Todd.
right on.
Tristan Hunter as performer of the year is humorous. He always looks dead in the eyes and shows no type of passion in most of his boring ass scenes.
Max Konnor as Performer of the Year? Joke.
Jacob hansen of helix studios not nominated in any category? Did he retire?
I wanna see Beau Butler do a scene with just Reign and another one with just Roman Todd. I’d also like to see Roman Todd bottom for Reign in another scene
