Do pornstars qualify as "actresses"?

Yeah, pornstars and those gravure idol muppets who just bounce around on camera shouldn't count... As for actual actresses...

Maria Ozawa is a pornstar, not a real actress. And she isn't even Japanese, only half.
To address all three of you, she's not only a porn actress. She has done legitimate roles too. Wasn't she in that Taiwanese slasher film last year? That's legitimate cinema! I believe she was in a Japanese TV drama too? 特命係長・只野仁? (Thanks, Wikipedia)
Also, who cares if she is half-white? She considers herself Japanese. She didn't have the option to choose the nationality of her parents. She was born in Japan and considers herself Japanese. I think that qualifies her as Japanese.
