[Rolling Stone]- On a recent Saturday afternoon at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood, a mother shoos her children away after hearing 20-year-old porn star Sasha Grey blithely describe a day in her life. “When I’m not turned on for a scene, I’ll warm up my pussy a lot ahead of time,” Grey says, flicking back her long, dark hair.
With her sad eyes, waifish body and willingness to push the boundaries of porn, Grey quickly became the toast of the San Fernando Valley. She has screamed and sworn her way through more than 100 movies. And while Boogie Nights tells us that Sasha Greys do not last long, Oscar winner Steven Soderbergh (Traffic, Erin Brockovich) just cast her as the lead of his new film about a high-priced call girl. Grey’s stardom is starting to titillate people in legitimate Hollywood. Naturally, she likes that feeling very much.
