The AVN Award for Male Foreign Performer of the Year is an award that has been given annually by the sex industry company AVN since the award's inception in 2003.[1][2]
The first recipient of the award was Italian-born pornographic actor Rocco Siffredi who was awarded at the 20th AVN Awards in 2003.[3] As of 2026, twelve pornographic actors have been awarded who are of five different nationalities: Italian (eleven), British and French (four), German and Spanish (two), Austrian (one).
Italian pornographic actor Rocco Siffredi is the most honoured actor with ten awards followed by British pornographic actor Danny D with three awards and German pornographic actor Steve Holmes with two awards.[4][5] Rocco Siffredi is the oldest recipient of the award at the age of 56 in 2021 and Danny D is the youngest recipient of the award at the age of 29 in 2017. Italian pornographic actor Rocco Siffredi is the only performer to have won in three different decades—the 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s. The most recent winner of the award is Austrian pornographic actor Marcello Bravo, who was awarded at the 43rd AVN Awards in 2026.[6]
