1) One who acts in pornographic motion pictures.

2) Another term for "pornstar," first used by comedian Sarah Silverman in the film Jesus is Magic.
Sarah Silverman: I was watching, uh… porn, and it was like a series of vignettes, and in this one scene, it featured Ron Jeremy, a very famous, um… pornographic thespian. And in this scene, he is masturbating- onto a lady- but I noticed his pinky was out, and I found out why he masturbates with his pinky out: it's because he's classy.
