No.97, AskMen's Top 99 Women 2010 Edition


Why She's No.97

Sasha Grey

votesBuzz up!Shortly after her 18th birthday in 2006, Sasha Grey moved to L.A., determined to enter the porn industry. Grey found her agent Mark Spiegler through the internet and was soon filming her first scene for Fashionistas Safado: The Challenge for director John Stagliano.


Grey finished her first year in the adult film industry $200,000 richer with an award from the X-Rated Critics' Organization for Best New Starlet. In three years, Grey made over 100 adult movies, posed as a Penthouse Pet of the Month, opened her own L.A. Factory Girls agency, and was named 2008's Female Performer of the Year, according to both XRCO and the Adult Video News. Why so successful? Some of it was her willingness to look at the camera and "connect" with viewers, and a big part of it was her flat-out fearlessness about what she would do on camera. While some (like Tyra Banks) cried degradation, Sasha Grey cried feminism and argued that it was her idea.

In 2008, Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh was in the early stages of a new film called The Girlfriend Experience, about a high-class call girl in New York City. Impressed with her stated desire to try "regular" acting, Soderbergh cast her and the film was screened at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival. While additional roles followed in the horror-comedy Smash Cut and the drama Quit, Grey hopes to restrict her non-adult acting to independent films -- in keeping with her tastes.
