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.

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[3] are presented in some years. 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"[4]) of a well-known performer who also receives a lifetime achievement award. 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 awards have been compared to the People's Choice Awards.[7] The FOXE award winners are decided by a vote from members of FOXE.[8]
