Porn Star Focus: Sasha Grey
Sasha Grey, who’s real name is Marina Ann Hantzis, is a well known former porn star and model who was active in the porn industry from 2006 to 2009. Sasha first discovered the world of XXX in 2006 when she moved to Los Angeles and was looking for work. She wanted to make money quickly so when she came across an ad looking for nude models she figured she’d give it a try. Sasha began shooting topless and nude content and later progressed to starring in hardcore porn films. She initially used the stage name Anna Karina but eventually settled on Sasha Grey. The name 'Sasha' was taken from Sascha Konietzko from the band KMFDM and the 'Grey' was taking from Oscar Wilde’s book, The Picture of Dorian Gray.
Sasha’s first sex scene was an orgy with Rocco Siffredi and involved hardcore boy-girl action with plenty of blowjob and deepthroat action. Sasha made quite the name for herself during that scene because apparently she asked Siffredi to punch her in the stomach during filming, an act she later stated was totally improvised. Less than six months after entering the adult industry, Sasha was featured in the November 2006 edition of alps Angeles where she was hailed as a potential major star to rival Jenna Jameson. By 2007, Sasha had already scooped awards for "Best Three Way Sex Scene" in Fuck Slaves and "Best Group Scene" in Rocco Siffredi’s film.
In 2008, Sasha became the youngest woman ever to win the AVN Female Performer of the Year Award award and also won the award for "Best Oral Sex Scene" for her role in Babysitters. Sasha was now a huge celebrity in the adult industry and she even started getting mainstream gigs, including a starring role in Dave Navarro’s film Broken, for which she won the Best High End All-Sex Film AVN award. Sasha was now getting recognised for her enormous contribution to the porn industry and The New York Times even published an article about her that described her career as "distinguished both by the extremity of what she is willing to do and an unusual degree of intellectual seriousness about doing it".
Throughout her quick but very successful poor career, Sasha starred in over 190 movies of all different genres, such as lesbian girl-girl, bondage, anal, DP, bukkake, gang bang and anal creampie. In 2009 she filmed her last adult film at the age of 21 and announced her retirement from the porn industry. She now works as a writer and actress and has starred in many mainstream roles for big directors including James Gunn and Steven Soderbergh. She also still tops the list of Pornhubs most searched pornstars of all time.
