Rolling Stone jumped on the Sasha Grey-mainstream-breakout bandwagon this week when it featured the porn star-turned-legit-actress in its most recent issue.
Although Grey is a highly intelligent individual, capable of captivating a reader with her hard-earned wisdom, it's obvious no one's buying this magazine, as they say, "for the articles..."
In her featured profile, the 21-year-old scream queen (of the other kind) discussed the thing she hates most about her day job:
Sasha Grey is the adult industry’s reigning princess of porn, a rock
& roll 21-year-old with an actual mission statement — “Most of the
XXX I see is boring, and does not arouse me physically or visually. I
am determined and ready to be a commodity that fulfills everyone’s
fantasies” — and few taboos.
“I don’t need to see genitalia up close; I don’t need to see
a dirty yellow couch against a white wall. I want to see something
different, like this is not exciting to me."
"If you look at me and you think 'Here’s a woman who’s intelligent,
cognizant and making her own choices, and you still tell me that what
I’m doing is wrong, screw you, because that should end the debate.'"
The article goes on to mention Grey's ten years of acting lessons and her interest in breaking into Hollywood-- but not by doing Michael Bay-type Blockbusters. She wants to be an indie darling along the lines of a Parker Posey or Lili Taylor. What do you think? Is it too late to save Sasha or are porn stars the next superstars?
