XRCO Awards

[5] In 2013, the XRCO Awards venue was changed from The Highlands nightclub[6] to Supperclub LA when the former closed.

[15] After the controversy and criticism of the best erotic scene victory for the movie Virginia in 1984 at the Adult Film Association of America (AFAA) awards, the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) and its "Heart-On Awards", were founded.

[16] Jim Holliday was a founder and previously the honorary historian of the X-Rated Critics Organization.

[20] The first XRCO Awards were presented on February 14, 1985,[21] where Ginger Lynn won a "veritable Triple Crown: 'Best Female Performer', 'Video Vixen' and 'Starlet of the Year'".

Citing the venue and date changes made in 2014, the event organizers announced that the awards show would be recorded and broadcast by the company Vrai Voyeur.

Original award plaques were made of wood in the shape of a heart and used until 2014
