Entertainer that's attractive to a parasite? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

host

This clue is a double definition.

'entertainer' is the first definition.
(person hosting or entertaining guests)

'that's attractive to a parasite?' is the second definition.
(a parasite needs a host)

(Other definitions for host that I've seen before include "Party-giver" , "Compre" , "Compere; multitude" , "This man entertains" , "One receiving guests" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
