VENICE, CA – It was a historic evening at the Highlands Nightclub in Hollywood Thursday night where the X-Rated Critics Association held the annual XRCO Awards, bestowing superstar Jenna Haze with the Female Performer of the Year trophy. She is the first female performer to win the title from XRCO, AVN and XBiz over a career—accomplishing it all in one incredible year.

“I’m so proud, so stunned, I hardly know what to say,” Jenna said after the show, her heart-shaped award clutched tightly in hand. “This is so awesome because it’s voted on by a group of the best adult writers in the country and I know they take their work as seriously as I take mine. I take this as a big compliment.”

This brings the superstar’s personal award tally to 19. Her first win was for AVN’s Best New Starlet in 2003.

“When I looked at the list of the other performers who were nominated, I was sure someone else would win,” Jenna said. “They are all awesome. This is a night I will never forget.”

After her success in adult, Jenna has begun dabbling with mainstream opportunities and today Crank 2: High Voltage, which features a Jenna cameo, opens in theaters. Her first cameo was in Superbad. For information go to www.Crank2.com.

“I’m taking the mainstream thing as a hobby, more than something serious,” she said. “My heart is in porn, and I will always be into porn. That’s my love.”

And that love paid off last night with yet another heart-shaped award from the XRCO.

Also, XCritic is giving away five copies of her Jennaration X Studios debut, Jenna Haze’s Cum Spoiled Sluts. Enter to win at http://www.xcritic.com/contests/contest.php?ID=152.
