Any actress should love him (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oscar

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'any actress' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.

'should love him' is the wordplay.
'should love' becomes 'os' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'him' becomes 'Car'.
'os'+'car'='OSCAR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "-- Wilde, author" , "to wit involved in row" , "Librettist Hammerstein, d. 1960" , "Comms code for "O"" , "US film award" .)
