AVN Award/Beste Darstellerin

Der AVN Award für die beste Darstellerin (AVN Award for Best Actress) ist ein Schauspielpreis für Pornofilme, der von Adult Video News im Rahmen der jährlichen Verleihung der AVN Awards vergeben wird. Zusammen mit dem Preis für den Besten Darsteller wurde er erstmals 1984, bei der ersten Ausgabe des Awards, verliehen.[1] Er gilt als wichtigster filmbezogenener Darstellerpreis der Pornobranche.

Von 1986 bis 2008 wurde der Preis in den beiden Kategorien Film und Video verliehen. Seit 2009 gibt es nur noch eine Kategorie.

Die erste Gewinnerin war Sharon Mitchell für ihre Leistung in dem Film Sexcapades. Rekordpreisträgerinnen sind Jeanna Fine und Ashlyn Gere, die den Preis je viermal gewannen. Gere konnte sich den Award sowohl 1993 als auch 1995 in beiden Kategorien sichern. Dahinter folgen Jessica Drake mit drei Siegen und Ginger Lynn, Shanna McCullough, Ona Zee, Jenna Jameson, Serenity, Savanna Samson sowie Maitland Ward mit zwei Erfolgen. Ward ist die bisher einzige Darstellerin, die den Preis zweimal in der Gesamtkategorie gewinnen konnte.
