From Porn To Hollywood: Top 10 Crossover Stars

 

 Sasha Grey

When it comes to crossover stars, Sasha Grey stands out from all the rest. After five years of working in the adult film industry, within which time she won “New Starlet of the Year” at the 2006 XRCO Awards, brunette beauty Sasha Grey began to appear in several mainstream media productions such as the black comedy/horror film Smash Cut (2009) and the horror movie Hallows (2010). Sasha’s big break came when she was cast as the escort ‘Chelsea’ in Academy Award winning director Steven Soderbergh’s feature film The Girlfriend Experience (2009). Talking about his decision to cast Sasha in this leading role, Soderbergh conveyed within a Los Angeles Magazine interview how;

“She’s kind of a new breed, I think. She doesn’t really fit the typical mold of someone who goes into the adult film business…I’d never heard anybody talk about the business the way that she talked about it”.

Following her starring role in The Girlfriend Experience, Sasha won “Crossover Star of the Year” at the 2010 AVN Awards. In the years that followed Sasha’s acting career went from strength to strength as she was cast in a multi-episode arc for the seventh season of the hit HBO TV show Entourage (2004-2011) wherein she played a fictionalised version of herself. Sasha has also starred alongside Jeremy Piven, Rob Lowe and Thomas Jane in the thriller I Melt with You (2011), she has voiced the character of ‘Violet DeWynter’ in the Saints Row: The Third (2011) video game and she has been featured within several music videos including Eminem’s Space Bound (2011); there’s just no stopping sensational crossover star Sasha Grey!
