Sasha Grey is a porn star. A really really dirty one at that. She blows just about ever girl in the business out of the water when it comes to intensity stacked on top of filth, and that's saying something. She's like an elegant belladonna without the crappy tattoos. She's also crossing over into legit films that might actually be watchable while picking up some, dare I say, hipster credibility along the way.
Good for her. I'm all for treating porn stars like people, but I'm not quite convinced she's nearly as intelligent as she tries to be. I think she has a lot of raw smarts without a lot of knowledge and it seems like she's trying really hard to overcompensate. Then again, she's only 21. What did you know at 21? She is brave. That's for sure.
I've thought, for a long time, that porn stars are the only real rock stars. They really do live on the fringe of society and get no respect for what they do. Most of them give up their friends and family to try their hand at movies, while dealing with some major stress. Your average douche in a rock/punk band gives up nothing and just wants to meet girls who are dumb enough to like him.
Anyway, here is to Sasha! She's trying to keep her identity when so many people want to take it.
