FlufferA fluffer is a hired member of the set of a pornographic movie whose role is to sexually arouse the male participants prior to the takes. Presumably, the name arose, at least in part, as a mocking reference to the hair-fluffing make-up artists who kept the starlets in non-pornographic movies looking their very best in every scene. On gay movies fluffers are typically male, while on heterosexual movies they are usually female. The occupation is frequently depicted as demeaning and contemptible, far moreso than being a porn star, with an insinuation that the fluffer isn't attractive enough to perform on camera. In the movie Swordfish, for example, Halle Berry provokes Hugh Jackman by suggesting his pre-adolescent daughter might wind up as a fluffer under the influence of her step-father, a producer of adult movies. There have been two movies titled The Fluffer. The first, a 2001 release, about a man with a crush on a gay porn star, has drawn much critical acclaim and has been compared to Boogie Nights. There is also a 2003 film that has received less attention. There is also a band called The Fluffers, based loosely in Denver, Colorado, featuring members of the Boulder band Chief Broom.
