An adult actress who goes by the name 'Bridget the Midget' could be facing a hefty prison sentence after she was accused of stabbing her boyfriend with a butter knife.

Bridget Powers, whose real name is Cheryl Murphy, reportedly caught her boyfriend sleeping with another woman in Las Vegas.

A video from September 18 captures some of the incident. It shows 39-year-old Murphy, who has dwarfism, smashing a window with a barbecue grill and raging outside the building.

Murphy, who is 3ft 9in, screams at her boyfriend and is heard to say: "I have nothing more to lose Jesse. You took it all from me!"

Another woman appears from the door and says something about "my boyfriend" before yelling "there's blood everywhere, please call the cops!"

A group of men respond to her calls and she says to them: "You are the cops? Thank god", before letting them into the building.

The video then shows Murphy walking through the parking lot with a cop.

KTNV reports that Murphy told police: "It's my fault, I did it all. I should go to jail."

Murphy was allegedly asked if she lived at the property where she had been found and she replied that she did.

However, KYNV reports that another woman shouted: "No, she does not, she's trying to stab my boyfriend to death, please call the cops."

It's reported Murphy then said: "Yeah, I did stab him."

Murphy allegedly stabbed her boyfriend in the leg with a butter knife. The other woman claims shed tried to stab her too, but missed.

The man who was stabbed, Jesse James, has been released from hospital where he was treated for injuries which were not life-threatening.

He told cops he was asleep after a night out drinking with the other woman, when Murphy came in through an unlocked door and stabbed him in the leg.

He also claimed he and Murphy had been sleeping together for two years.

A neighbour in Nevada reported hearing screams in the incident last month.

TMZ reports Murphy could be jailed for more than 15 years as she was charged with burglary while in possession of a deadly weapon as prosecutors claim she intended on committing a crime when she entered the home.

Murphy also faces five years for battery with use of a deadly weapon constituting domestic violence, and six years for assault with a deadly weapon.

She had a court date set for November 7.
