Leading Trade Magazine Names Star to Short List for 2009

VENICE, CA – The award nominations keep rolling in for Dane Cross with XBiz announcing that it has nominated him for New Male Performer of the Year.

It’s been a big year from the star, who crossed over from the alt genre to score leads in several parodies, including Not Married With Children XXX and Not the Bradys XXX: Pussy Power. He also recently starred as the lead opposite Jessica Drake in Wicked’s upcoming Three Days in June, which is yet to hit shelves.

“My career is a lot different than it was just a few months ago,” he said. “It wasn’t easy gaining respect from directors for my feature work, but I think that’s changed. I love working, whether it’s gonzo or features, and it’s great getting the opportunity to do both.”

Dane is also nominated for Best Male Newcomer and Best Supporting Actor at the 2010 AVN Awards show.

Also, LadiezNight.com recently posted an exclusive and extensive interview with Dane on its site. To read the nail-biting piece go to http://www.ladieznight.com/157/.
