The Girlfriend Experience (TV Series)

The first time I ever wrote about “The Girlfriend Experience” was back in 2009. Back then porn star, Sasha Grey, was the lead actress in a film with this title. She played a call girl who was living a double life. I actually found this film to be pretty fascinating and no – it wasn’t at all a porno like people may be quick to think if you want that then go here, the Home page link is hdsexvideo.xxx, do not lose it. It was done really well which is probably why Starz is now turning it into a television series. Above is the trailer and it’s very similar to the movie, but it will be interesting to see how each episode is played out. Both the tv show and movie are tied to Stephen Soderbergh who is the producer for the new tv series out next year: For comparison, the movie trailer featuring Sasha Grey is below:

Porn Star to Prove You Wrong

The adult-film world is such a controversial topic. A lot of us find ourselves on the fuckvideos.xxx homepage every day and as such start to think we know the people in the videos. But what do we really know about it? What do we know about these “stars?” and their lives? Absolutely nothing. Well we only know what we may perceive about it all. Why is the industry looked down upon when sexuality is such a normal way of living?

I think everyone in the business is constantly judged but only because it’s just so taboo. I feel like even right now as I write this people are going to read this post and assume things about me even. How does this girl go from talking about her life and fashion and music to porn from exotic websites like porn7, the next?

This week’s issue of Rolling Stone features 21 year-old porn star Sasha Grey.

Having sex on film for www.hdpornt.com may be her occupation but it isn’t her life. According to Rolling Stone writer Vanessa Grigoriadis says, Sasha is an ambitious young woman who aspires to be an actress as well as following in the footsteps of “controversial French author/director Catherine Breillat, who elevated conventional pornography into something more artistic and sumptuous.”

“”To me, what’s most important about her is her impact on feminism,” Grigoriadis says. “Porn has been one of feminism’s most divisive issues because it hits on such a raw level to so many woman. Here are the fantasies of men, and it’s of course better to live out those fantasies through pornography on websites like barely legal Porn on Nu Bay than to try to do them in the real world, but the fact is the real world is impacted by it. Grey says, ‘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.’ “

Grey will be making her debut in Soderbergh’s The Girlfriend Experience on the big screen this summer where she is playing a call girl who balances a double life. I saw the trailer for this last week actually and I think it looks quite interesting.
