Fans of X-Rated Entertainment (F.O.X.E., also known as FOXE) is a United States-based pornography fan organization founded by adult film actor, director, and critic William Margold and actress Viper. [1] [2] It advocates against censorship of pornography and gives annual adult film awards.
The annual FOXE awards ceremony presents three standard awards decided by fan vote: Male Fan Favorite, Female Fan Favorite, and Video Vixen for a new female performer. Additional special awards, including Fan of the Year are presented in some years. [3] In the 1990s, the Fan Favorite awards were often shared but Vixen was always for one recipient. Since the 11th FOXE awards, the ceremony has included a "Broast" (a "benign roast") of a well-known performer who also receives a lifetime achievement award. [4] Any performer winning Fan Favorite three times is "retired" with the FOXE X award, and they become ineligible for further awards. [5] Holders of the FOXE X include Tera Patrick, Nina Hartley, Ashlyn Gere, and Jill Kelly. [6] Ceremony attendance fees go to support anti-censorship causes, like the Protecting Adult Welfare Foundation. [2] The FOXE award winners are decided by a vote from members of FOXE. [7]
