Sasha Grey Entourage: Cheers & Jeers: Jeers to Entourage  for saddling Sasha Grey with a part beyond her acting capabilities: playing herself. Want more Cheers & Jeers? Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine. When it was first reported that HBO's showbiz satire was stunt-casting the porn-star of Sasha Grey's Anatomy as Vincent Chase's new, um, love interest, we assumed it would be a quickie — one or two episodes and out. But Grey's arc has stretched out over the entire season, and her acting is stiffer than... well, use your imagination.

Like her "character," Grey has been trying to go legit; as Entourage has constantly reminded us, Oscar-winner Steven Soderbergh cast her in his 2009 arthouse flop The Girlfriend Experience. But her work as Vinny's bad-influence bedmate has been notable only for her frequent nude scenes. Somehow, we think she was hoping for a different kind of exposure. Do you think Sasha Grey is falling flat on Entourage?

Sasha Grey Entourage: Sasha Grey Drugs And Gang Bang: As Entourage Season 7 marches on, we are left with more Sasha Grey, gang bangs, coke, drug tests and of course the recurring Turtle Tequila debacle. I started off this season of Entourage with the fear that it was not going to deliver the edginess and entertainment factor I am used to in previous seasons. While it got a little better during the middle of the season, just as Vince is free-falling into a drug-induced coma, so is the show. Writers must have some sort of fascination with Sasha Grey and Tequila because that’s all this damn show has been about over the past 3 weeks.

Last night we begin with Vince (Adrien Grenier) and Sasha Grey laying in bed throwing out some sweet pillow talk. Sasha lets Vince know that she is getting ready to partake in a 5-man gang bang. You know, the typical stuff you talk about with your girlfriend when you wake up in the morning. Needless to say, Vince is less than thrilled that is so-called girlfriend is going back into the porn business. Sasha Grey lets Vince know that she is doing the gang bang whether he likes it or not.

Sasha Grey Entourage: React To Shaggy Scene: The last episode of "Entourage" caused a trending topic on Twitter after Sasha Grey gave more than what men expected for. The porn star turns straight-act actress appeared with unshaved pubic hair on the August 8 episode, aptly called "Hair".

In the HBO drama, Grey plays herself who is entangled in a romantic relationship with Adrian Grenier's Vince. Her full-on naked scene proved to be unflattering to some as apparent from the Twitter commments such as "Yea she had a sicko BUSH", "Entourage was wild. So was Sasha Grey's bush" and "did anyone else think that was disgusting. ITS 2010!"

Few hours after the protest was brought into attention, Grey herself addressed the situation on her Twitter. She wrote, "A lot of bush comments after tonight's #Entourage episode. If you're curious...that's what a grown woman looks like. Besides, I shave where it counts. I'm happy to contribute to making it ok again:) All 'fashions' have their cycles!"

Sasha Grey In Entourage 6: Entourage Season 7 Recap. Entourage encounters “Hair” and Sasha Grey in its sixth episode of season 7 last night on HBO. Last night in another sexually charged episode of Entourage Season 7 we pick up right where we left off last week. Sasha Grey remains a part of the cast as her and Vincent Chase (Adrien Grenier) continue to drink tequila and grow as a couple.

Turtle (Jerry Ferrara), still trying to market Vince as the face of his new brand of tequila, shoots a rather racy promotional video. In the video he has Vince and Sasha Grey poolside, drunk off of the very product in which they are promoting. Vince quickly tells the camera that with this tequila you can “Fuck like a porn star.”  Vince’s choice words will ultimately come back to bite him in the ass as the episode ensues.

On top of the troubles with his tequila, Turtle also has some problems with Alex in the bedroom. The basis behind the episodes title, “Hair,” surrounds a sexual debacle between Turtle and Alex. When turtle goes down on Alex, he is shocked when he sees that she has no “Hair” down there. Not knowing what to do, Turtle freezes up and the awkwardness between him and Alex continues.

Sasha Grey: Entourage Episode 84: Story: Vince's (Adrien Grenier) relationship with pornography actress Sasha Grey takes a public turn of events, causing some trouble for his professional life. Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) faces an unexpected challenge with Alex (Dania Ramirez). Now that he knows the faces of his enemies, Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) goes head-to-head-to-head against the power duo of Lizzie Grant (Autumn Reeser) and Amanda Daniels (Carla Gugino). A newly sober Billy Walsh (Rhys Coiro) resurfaces looking to return to the film industry.

Cutting Loose: Vinnie Chase has partied hard over the course of seven seasons of "Entourage," but he's arguably hit his personal lowest in recent episodes, thanks to Turtle's dangerously delicious batch of tequila and the seductive ways of Sasha Gray. By the end of "Hair," a very drunk and very naked Vince lies face down next to his pool while Eric and Ari hover over him, ready to tackle the biggest career move of the young (and unconscious) actor's life. Can Vince pull himself together enough to land the "Airwalker" deal? We'll find out next week.

Vince isn't the only one with troubles, as Turtle has a problem sealing the deal with Alex due to some, well, physical discrepancies. Eventually, the two get over their baggage and make the first real move towards solidifying a relationship. Ari is having some trouble with women as well Lizzie Grant and Amanda Daniels to name two, as both Hollywood power players are out to sink the super agent. Lizzie leaks recordings of Ari's rants to Deadline Hollywood, leaving Mr. Gold at a loss for how to repair his already volatile reputation.

Sasha Grey Nearby Entries Piven and Grenier On Entourage: One of adult film’s most enigmatic and lauded stars has made a significant transition into legitimate acting.  The star of Steven Soderbergh’s 2009 escort-themed film “The Girlfriend Experience,” Grey will play an escalated version of herself, as Vincent Chase’s hard-partying, arty girlfriend on HBO’s hit dramedy “Entourage.”Grey, 22, describes guest-starring in a multiple episode arc starting August 1st as “exciting.”

Being the new kid on the long-running TV show, she tells Hollywood Today in an exclusive interview, “There’s definitely shorthand between some of the cast members because they’ve been working together for so long.  There’s little idiosyncratic behaviors that you don’t really catch onto right away.  But, overall they really made me feel like part of the family.

Sasha Grey's Up Comming Movie I Melt With You: For those of you who are hoping that The Girlfriend Experience  star Sasha Grey will get back to her adult film roots, we have disappointing news. The dark-haired beauty continues to go legit with a role in the upcoming I Melt With You starring Thomas Jane, Rob Lowe, Jeremy Piven, and Huge cast member Zander Eckhouse. Grey’s role, according to THR, will be that of Raven, a free spirit who believes that true nirvana can only be achieved by death. Eckhouse plays her boyfriend.

The plot involves three men, who find their lives to be empty the older that they get. Meeting at one of their annual summer reunions, they decide to rededicate themselves to the principles they have vowed to live, die, and kill by. Director Mark Pellington (Henry Poole Is Here) manages the cast of this low-budget character study, which has a planned release of 2011. As we previously reported, Grey is also currently appearing in HBO’s Entourage.

Sasha Grey Perform Different Role In Her New Movie: I'm not really sure that what we saw from Sasha Grey in Steven Soderbergh's The Girlfriend Experience  was good acting, exactly, but the porn star made for an interesting screen presence, and I've been kind of curious ever since to see what kind of mainstream film she might make next (those interested in her other film career know where to find that). Now that she's made her pick, I'm a little more perplexed-- she seems to have chosen a role in a film not all that likely to take advantage of her acting skills, but to objectify her in the same way a porn might.

The film in question is I Melt With You, a drama about middle-aged adult men facing the emptiness of their lives during a summer reunion (no, it's not a shot-for-shot remake of Grown Ups). According to THR Grey's role will be "Raven," apparently "a free spirit who helps one of the men realize that nirvana can only be achieved by death." Uh, sure. The central character are played by Thomas Jane, Rob Lowe and Jeremy Piven, with Zander Eckhouse, Abhi Sinha and Arielle Kebbel rounding out the cast. Eckhouse plays Grey's character's boyfriend, which means she might have a little more character depth than just "hot girl who shows up to make the guys happy," but I'm still confused as to how exactly she'll fit into this Big Chill-seeming story.

Production starts next month with Mark Pellington directing, and given the low-budget nature we have no real idea when we'll see the finished product. Grey's name is a draw, though, not just for fans of her porn work, but for people like me curious if this cipher can actually pull off dual careers in both mainstream and adult film.
