Dante Colle WINS One of the Biggest Awards of the Night at 2022 XRCOs

 
(Los Angeles, CA) Multi-award-winning, sexual fluid adult star, leading man, and MindGeek contract star Dante Colle won one of the biggest awards at the 2022 XRCO Awards.
Dante Colle walked into the XRCO Awards with nominations for the biggest awards for Best Actor for Adult Time’s Casey: A True Story, and Male Performer of the Year. He’s been up for both awards multiple times over the past few months. His role in Casey won him acclaim from the critics and his worldwide fans. And now, his acting, on-screen presence, and sex scenes have won him his first XRCO Award. Last Thursday night at Boardner’s in Hollywood, Dante tied for Best Actor with Tommy Pistol for his work on the same film.
“I’m so bummed that I didn’t make it to the XRCOs to walk the red carpet and accept my award. I intended on going but was stuck late on set. Many of the awards I’ve won in the last few years have been virtual, so it would have been nice to accept this in person. I’m really honored that I was chosen to play such an incredible role and be part of telling Casey Kisses’ story. Thank you, XRCOs, Casey, Joanna Angel, and of course, Adult Time,” says Dante Colle.
