XVideos Pornstars: The Three With a Dated, Sourced Chart Claim

The Pornstar Ranked Editorial Desk Adult-industry research team
Updated 7 September 2026

XVideos is the third-most-visited pornography website as of October 2025, behind Pornhub and xHamster. Unlike Pornhub, it runs no equivalent to a dated annual awards ceremony with named categories and an announced result, and unlike the sibling Jerkmate pornstars page, this research could not reach XVideos' own site directly to check for a current model-roster page comparable to the one that worked there.

That leaves one honest route: a performer's own dated, sourced claim about a specific XVideos chart position or ranking, checked the same way this site checks any biographical fact.

The short answer

This page names three performers, not ten -- the honest result of extensive research, stated directly rather than padded. XVideos publishes no awards ceremony and its own site could not be reached during this research pass to check for a roster page, so this page rests on each performer's own dated, sourced claim about her XVideos standing: Elisa Sanches (122nd internationally and runner-up nationally on XVideos, 2021), Dread Hot (6th most-searched Brazilian performer, 2021) and Fernandinha Fernandez (9th most-viewed Brazilian performer, by her 2021 retirement). All three are presented unranked.

Named, not ranked

Three people this research could verify -- the honest total

Presented unranked. Elisa Sanches leads because she is the only one of the three with a photograph on file, a deliberate exception to a strict award-count ordering given how small this roster is; Dread Hot and Fernandinha Fernandez follow, ordered by award count, with the missing photograph disclosed on each of their entries rather than hidden.

All three carry a genuine, independently documented adult-film career away from this specific XVideos claim, sourced to their own Portuguese Wikipedia biographies. Neither Dread Hot's nor Fernandinha Fernandez's record was created for this page; Elisa Sanches' existing record is enriched this edition with the XVideos-specific facts cited on her entry.

Presented unranked. No composite score is computed or shown for any of the three, no ItemList is emitted, and neither claim is treated as evidence of anything beyond the specific, dated figure stated. Two of the three have no photograph on file, a gap this page states directly rather than concealing.

Why Elisa is included

Sanches' own Portuguese Wikipedia biography states that in 2021 she held the 122nd position in XVideos' international ranking and was runner-up in the platform's Brazilian national ranking that same year -- two separate, dated figures from the same source rather than a single undated claim.

She is placed first on this page despite a lower award count than Dread Hot because she is the only one of the three names here with a photograph on file, and this site's standing rule treats a photographed entry as the reasonable one to lead with on a roster this small.

Her wider career -- a Revelação do Ano Hétero win in 2017 and the ceremony's top annual title, Melhor Atriz Hétero, in 2018 -- is scored in full on our Brazilian pornstars page.

The case against: Both XVideos figures come from her own Wikipedia biography rather than a chart XVideos itself publishes in a form this page could check directly, and the 2021 "runner-up" claim does not name who placed first in the same national ranking that year.
Career and credits

Career

Born Elisângela da Costa Silva in Rio de Janeiro, Elisa Sanches entered adult film in 2015 after the end of a relationship, having previously worked in shoe and book sales. She won Revelação do Ano Hétero at the 2017 Prêmio Sexy Hot and the ceremony's top annual title, Melhor Atriz Hétero, in 2018; Portuguese Wikipedia credits her with seven Sexy Hot wins in total across 2017–2019, though only these two individually attributed titles are recorded here. She later presented the erotic reality show A Casa das Brasileirinhas (2021) and appeared in a music video with MC Ryan SP. In 2022 she ran for federal deputy for Rio de Janeiro under the Patriota party, receiving 4,997 votes.

Signature: The only performer in this cohort confirmed to hold both a Revelação do Ano and a Melhor Atriz Hétero title, and per Portuguese Wikipedia the most-awarded actress in Prêmio Sexy Hot history.

Why Dread is included

Dread Hot's own Portuguese Wikipedia biography states she was ranked the sixth most-searched Brazilian performer on XVideos in 2021, a country- and year-specific figure rather than an undated "top model" assertion.

Her broader career -- a 2018 Prêmio Sexy Hot win and a three-category sweep at the 2019 ceremony -- is argued in full on our blowjob pornstars page.

She has no portrait on file in this site's image store, which is why she sits below Elisa Sanches on this page despite a stronger award record; her case is judged essential to keep on this page regardless, since removing her would leave this list with only one name.

The case against: The "sixth most-searched" figure is sourced to her own Wikipedia biography rather than to an XVideos-published chart this page could check independently, and it measures Brazilian-market search volume specifically, not any global XVideos ranking. She also has no photograph on file, a gap this page states rather than hides.
Career and credits

Career

Born Vitória de Mesquita Schwarzelühr de Castro Almeida in Jacareí, Dread Hot holds an advertising degree and left agency work in 2016 to start camming under the stage name, later moving into film production with X-Plastic. She swept the 2019 Prêmio Sexy Hot with three category wins — Best Heterosexual Actress, Best Female Homo Scene and Best Oral Sex Scene — after a 2018 win for LGBT Revelation of the Year. Beyond adult film she has appeared on HBO Brasil's Greg News, in a Porta dos Fundos sketch, and co-hosts the Hermanas podcast; she was ranked the sixth most-searched Brazilian performer on XVideos in 2021. She also works as a DJ.

Signature: The only performer in this cohort with a confirmed multi-award sweep in a single Sexy Hot ceremony (three wins in 2019).

Why Fernandinha is included

Fernandez's own Portuguese Wikipedia biography states that by the time she retired in 2021, she was ranked the ninth most-viewed Brazilian performer on XVideos -- a view-count rather than a search-volume figure, again scoped to the Brazilian market.

That closes out a documented 14-year career, begun at 21 in 2007, argued in full on our Brazilian pornstars page.

Like Dread Hot, she has no portrait on file; she is kept on this page because she is one of only three documented cases this research could find, and dropping her would leave the page unable to demonstrate the pattern at all.

The case against: The ranking figure is sourced to her own Wikipedia biography rather than an XVideos-published chart, is scoped to Brazilian performers specifically, and she has no photograph on file -- the same disclosed gap as Dread Hot's entry.
Career and credits

Career

Born Carla Mallet in Porto Alegre, Fernandinha Fernandez began her adult-film career at 21 and built a 14-year run inside Brazil’s domestic industry, marketed early on as the sister of fellow performer Vivi Fernandez. Her work extended beyond Brazil into France and Spain, and by the time she retired in 2021 she was ranked the ninth most-viewed Brazilian performer on XVideos. She won a Prêmio Sexy Hot category award in 2018 for a full-service scene. After leaving adult film she moved into digital content creation, livestreaming on Twitch and co-founding a digital marketing venture with her partner.

Signature: One of the longest continuous careers in this cohort — 14 years inside the domestic industry, ending with a top-ten XVideos ranking rather than an early exit.

What "an XVideos pornstar" actually measures

This search term compresses two different things. The first is XVideos' own live, constantly updating "most viewed" model page -- a real number, but one that cannot be independently verified after the fact by anyone who did not capture the exact moment referenced, and one this page does not use anywhere. The second is a dated, sourced claim about a specific chart position at a specific time, which is checkable in the ordinary way this site checks any biographical fact.

Unlike our Pornhub pornstars page, which ranks performers against a genuine, dated annual awards ceremony, or our Jerkmate pornstars page, which uses that platform's own current model-roster page, XVideos offers neither a ceremony nor a roster page this research could reach. What remains is the dated-claim route alone, and it returns three names.

A mechanical check of this site's entire performer store, extended this edition with direct checks of further Brazilian biographies, found exactly three performers carrying a dated, sourced XVideos-specific chart claim. That is the honest size of the population this test currently returns on the evidence this page could gather, not a target this page fell short of by choice.

TermWhat it meansHow it differs

"Very large online platform" (VLOP)An EU Digital Services Act designation triggering additional content-moderation and transparency obligations.XVideos, Pornhub and Stripchat were all designated on 20 December 2023 -- not 2020-21, a date this page corrects from an earlier working assumption.
Context

Paris to Prague: founding, sale, and a 2023 regulatory designation

2007

Founded in Paris

XVideos launched on 1 March 2007, founded in Paris by Stephane Michael Pacaud. Pacaud reportedly turned down an offer of more than US$120 million for the site in 2012.

2021

Peak traffic ranking, and the three dated performer claims this page uses

XVideos was reported in August 2021 as the most-visited pornography website in the world. All three performer-level claims this page verifies are dated to the same year: Dread Hot's 6th-most-searched-Brazilian-performer position, Elisa Sanches' 122nd-international and runner-up-national positions, and the year of Fernandinha Fernandez's retirement, at which point she was ranked 9th most-viewed among Brazilian performers on the platform.

2023-2025

WGCZ ownership, an EU regulatory designation, and a fallen traffic rank

The site is now owned by WGCZ Holding, a Czech company. On 20 December 2023, the European Commission designated XVideos a "very large online platform" under the Digital Services Act, alongside Pornhub and Stripchat. By October 2025, XVideos' own traffic ranking had fallen from its 2021 peak to 30th-most-visited website in the world and third-most-visited pornography site, behind Pornhub and xHamster -- a concrete illustration of why this page does not treat a platform's live ranking as a stable, citable fact about any individual performer.

Editorial process

What extensive research for this edition still did not find

This edition went well beyond the prior one's sourcing and is reported honestly rather than glossed over.

Checked directly and found to carry no XVideos-specific claim

EF
Eight further Brazilian performers already ranked on this site

Direct Wikipedia checks were run for Olivia Del Rio, Mel Fire, Bruna Ferraz, Vivi Fernandez, Jessie Rogers, Priscilla Sol, Angela Lima and Patricia Kimberly -- the performers on this site's Brazilian-pornstars page most likely to carry a comparable claim, since both existing XVideos-specific claims are Brazilian-market claims. None of the eight biographies checked mentions XVideos, a ranking position, or a "most viewed" or "most searched" figure on any platform.

No official accounts confirmed. We only list handles we have verified on an authoritative page — a guessed handle in this industry usually belongs to an impersonator.

AN
Any name appearing only on XVideos' live "most viewed" or "top models" page

That ranking updates continuously and cannot be independently verified after the fact by anyone who did not capture the specific moment referenced. This page does not use it as a source for anyone, at any position -- the same standard our Pornhub pornstars page applies to that platform's equivalent feature.

No official accounts confirmed. We only list handles we have verified on an authoritative page — a guessed handle in this industry usually belongs to an impersonator.

Background

A distribution platform with no ceremony and no reachable roster

The reason this page is short is structural and is stated plainly: XVideos runs no annual awards mechanism, and this research pass could not reach the platform's own site to check for a roster page the way it did for the sibling Jerkmate pornstars page.

No awards ceremony exists to check a claim against

Pornhub has run named, judged annual categories since 2018, giving our Pornhub pornstars page a genuine competitive record to rank against. XVideos has no equivalent. Every "top XVideos performer" claim this page encountered traced back to the live model page, a chart-adjacent claim on a performer's own biography, or an aggregator list with no primary source at all.

No roster page could be reached, unlike the sibling Jerkmate page

Our Jerkmate pornstars page uses that platform's own published performer roster page as its primary source, reaching thirteen names. This research pass could not access XVideos' own site directly, so that method was not available here, and this page does not substitute an unverifiable third-party source in its place.

WGCZ Holding owns the platform; Pacaud founded it

XVideos launched in Paris in 2007 under founder Stephane Pacaud and is now owned by WGCZ Holding, a Czech company.

The December 2023 "very large online platform" designation

The European Commission designated XVideos a VLOP under the Digital Services Act on 20 December 2023, in the same announcement as Pornhub and Stripchat. An earlier working brief for this wave misdated this to 2020-21; the correct date is used throughout this page.

All three performer claims this page verified are Brazilian-market-specific

None of Elisa Sanches', Dread Hot's or Fernandinha Fernandez's documented chart positions claims to describe the platform as a whole -- all three are explicitly Brazilian-performer rankings, sourced to their own Portuguese Wikipedia biographies. This page states that scope rather than generalising any of the three into a platform-wide claim.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Who are the XVideos pornstars?

This page names three performers with a dated, sourced XVideos-specific chart claim -- the complete population extensive research for this edition could verify: Elisa Sanches (122nd international / runner-up national, 2021), Dread Hot (6th most-searched Brazilian performer, 2021) and Fernandinha Fernandez (9th most-viewed Brazilian performer, by 2021). All three are presented unranked.

Why does this page have only three names, not ten?

Because that is the honest result of the research. A full search of this site's 1,144-record performer store, extended this edition with direct Wikipedia checks of eight further Brazilian performers, found no additional names carrying a dated, sourced XVideos-specific claim. Padding the list with names from XVideos' live, unverifiable model ranking would misrepresent what the record actually shows.

Why doesn't this page use XVideos' own roster page, like the Jerkmate pornstars page does?

Because this research pass could not reach XVideos' own site directly to check for one. The sibling Jerkmate pornstars page uses that platform's own published performer-roster page as a primary source; that same method was not available here, and this page does not substitute an unverifiable source in its place.

Does XVideos have its own awards, like Pornhub?

No. Pornhub has run a named annual awards ceremony with judged categories since 2018. XVideos has no equivalent, which is the main reason this page presents three names unranked rather than a scored list.

Who owns XVideos?

WGCZ Holding, a Czech company, currently owns and operates XVideos. The site itself was founded in Paris on 1 March 2007 by Stephane Michael Pacaud.

Is XVideos a "very large online platform" under EU law?

Yes. The European Commission designated XVideos a VLOP under the Digital Services Act on 20 December 2023, alongside Pornhub and Stripchat -- not in 2020-21, a date that circulated in early research for this wave and has been corrected.

Why do two of the three names have no photograph?

Dread Hot and Fernandinha Fernandez have no portrait on file in this site's image store. They are kept on this page because they are two of only three documented cases this research could find, and removing them would leave only one name to demonstrate a real, repeated pattern; the gap is stated on each of their entries rather than hidden.

What does "6th most-searched" or "9th most-viewed" actually mean here?

Both are dated, Brazilian-market-specific chart positions sourced to each performer's own Portuguese Wikipedia biography for 2021. Neither claims to describe the platform as a whole.

Will this page ever reach ten names?

If XVideos ever publishes a reachable roster page or a dated, checkable competitive record, or if further performers surface with an equally dated, sourced claim, yes. Until then, a longer list would misrepresent what the record actually supports.

How this page was researched

This page publishes no ranking, so the Performer Index was not applied to it. It is sourced and corrected to the same standard as every ranking on this site — the difference is that the finding here is a documented absence rather than an order. The full rubric, including who is excluded from a ranking and why, is published on the Ranking methodology page.

A full search of this site's entire 1,144-record performer store for the word "XVideos" returned two names already documented from the prior edition. Extending that research for this edition -- direct checks of eight further Brazilian performers' own Wikipedia biographies, since the two existing claims are both Brazilian-market-specific -- surfaced exactly one more: Elisa Sanches, whose own Portuguese Wikipedia biography states a specific, dated 2021 ranking on XVideos not previously recorded anywhere in this site's store.

Three names is not the ten this wave's brief asks for, and this page says so rather than padding the list with names from XVideos' live, constantly changing model page -- a source this site has never treated as usable, because it cannot be checked after the fact. Two of the three, Dread Hot and Fernandinha Fernandez, have no portrait on file; they are kept on this page anyway because removing them would leave only one name to demonstrate a real, repeated pattern, and the gap is disclosed on each of their entries rather than hidden.

⚠︎

Before you publish this page: This page documents three performers with a dated, sourced XVideos chart claim -- the complete population extensive research for this edition could verify, well short of this wave's ten-name floor, stated honestly rather than padded. All three claims are sourced to each performer's own Portuguese Wikipedia biography and are scoped explicitly to the Brazilian market rather than the platform as a whole; none is an XVideos-published chart this page could check directly, and that limitation is stated on every entry. XVideos' own site could not be reached directly during this research pass, so the platform's-own-roster-page method that worked for the sibling jerkmate-pornstars page could not be applied here. Two of the three names, Dread Hot and Fernandinha Fernandez, have no portrait on file; both are kept on the page because dropping them would leave only one documented case, and the missing photograph is disclosed on each entry rather than hidden. This page also corrects a factual error found in this wave's working research brief: the EU Digital Services Act's "very large online platform" designation for XVideos, Pornhub and Stripchat was made on 20 December 2023, not in 2020-21.

Corrections and update log

Factual corrections are made within 48 hours of verification and logged, dated and described at the foot of the article. Changes to the scoring model itself are logged the same way - when we found that Lifetime Achievement honours were being scored as Performer of the Year wins, we published the fix and the resulting rank changes rather than quietly re-running the build. Cadence: Full re-audit every six months; award pillars updated within 14 days of each major awards ceremony. Next full audit: 2027-02-20.

What changed in this edition

  • One name added this edition: Elisa Sanches, whose own Portuguese Wikipedia biography documents a specific, dated 2021 XVideos ranking -- 122nd internationally and runner-up nationally -- not previously recorded on her existing performer record or anywhere in this article.
  • Extensive further research conducted and reported honestly rather than hidden: a full-store search for the word "XVideos" across all 1,144 performer records, plus direct Wikipedia checks of eight further Brazilian performers most likely to carry a comparable claim, found no additional names beyond the three now on this page.
  • XVideos' own site could not be reached directly during this research pass, so the platform-roster-page method that produced thirteen names for the sibling Jerkmate pornstars page was not available here -- stated plainly rather than substituted with an unverifiable source.
  • Order changed: Elisa Sanches, the only one of the three names with a photograph on file, is placed first as a deliberate, disclosed exception to a strict award-count ordering, given how small this roster is.
  • The EU Digital Services Act correction from the prior edition is unchanged: the "very large online platform" designation naming XVideos, Pornhub and Stripchat was made on 20 December 2023, not 2020-21 as an earlier working brief for this wave stated.
