LOS ANGELES—Rising adult starlet Casey Calvert has been named Unsung Siren of the Year at the 2015 XRCO Awards on Saturday, April 11.
The X-Rated Critics Organization presented the award at the annual star-studded event at Lure nightclub in Hollywood. The gala gathered the industry’s top talents and notables in a celebration of porn’s highest achievements.
“I am thrilled and honored to receive this amazing award,” said Calvert. “I’ve had the good fortune of working with a lot of very talented and creative people this past year, so I’m very thankful to them and to the X-Rated Critics Association for this great honor. It confirms where I need to reach and grow to make certain I’m recognized for even more than my scenes and on-screen passion.
“This year I’ve taken steps towards furthering my career and ensuring my career is fully in the spotlight of the media and fans,” added Calvert. “I’m performing constantly, working with a new marketing and PR agency, producing, dedicating more time to social media, and expanding my media visibility.”

Unsung Siren of the Year is presented each year to the female star who consistently demonstrates excellence without due recognition from the media.
“Casey Calvert is a fantastic choice for Unsung Siren. She is beautiful, consistently turns in great performances and seems to fly just below the radar. I have a feeling she won't stay unsung for long,” said Roger T. Pipe, XRCO member and critic with RogReviews.com.
"With any type of performer award, I consider a person's work in front of the camera, as well as their greater contributions to the adult industry community,” explained XRCO member Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals, author of Exposure: A Sociologist Explores Sex, Society, and Adult Entertainment. “Though there were many fabulous women nominated alongside her for XRCO's Unsung Siren Award, Casey's excellent, yet relatively 'unsung,' performance work in a variety of genres taken in conjunction with her considerable contributions to the adult industry community spoke volumes. I am so pleased she received some recognition with this much-deserved win!"
Calvert, who is represented by Mark Spiegler, of Spiegler Girls Casting & Management, has appeared in a number of acclaimed films in the past year, such as James Deen Loves Butts 2, James Deen’s 7 Sins: Pride, Sleeping Beauty XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, Crime of Passion, Student Bodies, Spider-Man XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, and others.

It was a scant few years ago that the Gainesville, Florida native, was studying film and law when she turned to fetish modeling while in college. Calvert’s interests then gravitated toward First Amendment law as it related to pornography when she took a course dealing with the landmark defamation case Hustler vs. Falwell.
After graduating magna cum laude from the University of Florida with a degree in film and minors in anthropology and zoology, Calvert entered adult industry in 2012 as a way to explore her sexuality. With an interest in BDSM and kink in her personal life, Calvert became known for her work in fetish-themed adult films, earning her acclaim and a number of award nominations.
Today, Calvert has expanded her interests by writing articles on sexual health, culture, and opinion pieces for a variety of websites and outlets like the Huffington Post.
