Another year, another stack of nominations proving that some directors just don’t slow down. Maestro Claudio, the guy who’s been cranking out some of the roughest, most addictive gonzo porn around, just landed three nods for the 2026 AVN Awards. And honestly? It’s about damn time the industry keeps recognizing what he’s been delivering through DP Diva and PervCity.
The man’s a machine when it comes to non-narrative filth, and these nominations hit right where his strengths shine brightest.
Maestro Claudio’s Triple Threat for 2026
Look, in a sea of cookie-cutter scenes, Claudio stands out because he pushes performers – and viewers – right to the edge without ever feeling forced. His latest AVN recognition isn’t some fluke; it’s validation for years of crafting scenes that are equal parts technical mastery and raw sexual energy.
The Nominations Breakdown
First up, he’s in the running for Best Directing Portfolio – Non-Narrative. If you’re familiar with his work, you know why. The guy orchestrates chaos like a conductor – every angle, every thrust, every gasp timed perfectly.
- Best Double-Penetration Sex Scene: That insane DP Diva drop with blue-haired bombshell Jewelz Blu taking on Vince Karter and Milan Ponjevic. Title says it all – she welcomes two cocks deep, and the chemistry is explosive.
- Best Anal Sex Scene: PervCity’s brutal session where Rebel Rhyder gets her ass wrecked, gaped, prolapsed – yeah, fisted too – by Milan Ponjevic. Extreme? Absolutely. But executed with that Claudio precision that makes it hypnotic.
These aren’t just scenes; they’re the kind of performances that stick with you long after the screen goes black.
What Claudio Had to Say
“To be recognized by AVN for this kind of work means a lot. I’m proud of the scenes we create – not just for the energy and intensity, but for the creative care that goes into every moment. Huge thanks to Jewelz, Rebel, Milan, Vince, and the entire team that helps bring these wild ideas to life.”
– Maestro Claudio
That’s the thing about the vet – he never forgets the team. And shoutout to the performers who dive headfirst into his visions. Jewelz Blu with that seductive energy, Rebel Rhyder going full extreme… they make his direction look effortless.
Where It All Goes Down
Winners get revealed January 24, 2026, back at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. If past years are any indication, the night’s gonna be packed with the usual mix of glamour and debauchery.
In the meantime, if you’re not already deep into DP Diva or PervCity catalogs, fix that. Claudio’s style – intense, unapologetic, always pushing boundaries – is exactly what keeps gonzo porn feeling alive in 2025.
He’s not chasing trends. He’s setting the bar for what hardcore directing can be. Three nominations? Feels like the start of something bigger.
