What sasha grey did in porn was not something to be proud of i like when people should be open mindend as long as not there daughter do what sasha grey did 🙄🙄
Totally! I wasn't seen Tyra's interview until yesterday and it was so... I'm not sure, but reminded me some "talk shows" full of prejudice and closed minds..
True, but they we’re still judgmental. Sasha seems to have a good head on her shoulders, self-confidence, no regrets, and a wealth of compassion. I am proud of her, and support her 100%. She isn’t just a pornstar at all. She’s a human with so many different interests, and if she enjoys being sexual on camera a living, let her. As long as she’s happy.
You know she didn't go there under the name Sasha Grey, she used her real name. So the kids wouldn't have even been able to ask who she was because everyone just would have thought she was a volunteer name Marina. What happened was someone recognized her and said something to their wife, and they started this.
I love Sasha because she just seems like such a genuinely cool and down to Earth person, like you could grab a beer and some tacos with her and just have a good time. She really is the cool Uncle Sasha.
Wouldn't bother me if she read a story to my kid as long as they didn't know what her profession was and as long as she didn't read a book called "Bobby's 1st Blow Job" ;)
I can't stand to see people judge porn stars when almost everyone watches fucking porn, and they get off from it. If you're going to judge them, judge yourself while you're at it.
I agree, it's a real problem, and a convenient excuse given by people who are uncomfortable with their sexuality. Many of these people would not campaign to improve conditions for artists in the industry, they disapprove of it while totally getting off on it.
tbh tho most pornstars are vapid as fuck and general wastes of flesh. Sashas one of the few thats sharp as fuck and actually owns her position. To the point where I have a natural level of respect for her.
She’s smart and a badass. Sasha is a great example that you can conquer the world by doing what you love, no matter what people think. as long as it is legal it is valid.
It's not like the kids knew who she was or would actually ask who she is because to them she's just a story teller people do to much she's reading not stripping grow up
sasha grey is awesome and worth a lot more than people think. she has brains yo! she's not an object and has the right of forgiveness like everyone else has. it's good shes turning a new leaf. i think she should be given a fair chance.
I love Whoopi's response and I have been a fan of Sasha Grey and her candor ever since learning who she is. Everyone is so terrified of women in full and total control of their sexuality. Some of the comments here however are beyond ignorant
I don't understand the big deal....if your child asked you who she was- you would say she's an "Actress" in the "Acting industry". And she entered the adult industry through her own will - it's something she wanted to, she wasn't forced. Just how an Actor wants to act or a singer whats to sing.
in this age of tech, all that kid had to do was google her if you tell them she is an actress and all the porn she did will come up. would you tell your kid that knowing that they will google her?cmon
Ade Dee Then those kids parents need to put parental block on their computers. I really don't like how parents love to shift blame from themselves to ether GTA, porn, hip-hop when really they should be taking the blame. It shows how disconnected and insecure America parents are towards their kids.
She is an actor. No biggie. The biggest FUEL for the adult entertainment is society anyway. People buy the dvds, magazines or sign up to websites to watch porn. I'm pretty sure most teachers at that school watched Sasha's videos. She is a performer, she gets Paid to ACT! and take on JOBS like any other well known actress in Hollywood.
peaceful harmony You're operating under a narrow minded presupposition that she's doing something wrong by doing porn, like something akin to assault or murder. There's nothing going away because there's nothing that needs to go away and it happened. She showed little regret and no need to hide anything. Just because she believes in literacy doesn't mean she should have gone into education as that is a profession for people who have a passion to teach. I'd like to see an end to sexual assault, but you don't see me becoming a rape counselor, because I know I could use my talents better to support the cause, rather than get involved. She didn't want to. That's why she didn't get into education. The point of the story is that the arrogance of people is getting in the way of what's actually important. A woman is supporting the advancement of their children and they don't like it because she had sex on camera and that's simply ridiculous.
Freya Stuart It's really sad what we humans are becoming, now a lot of you think doing porn is just another job, another profession, no big deal. It's actually worst than prostitution cause you're not only pay to have sex with strangers but also being video tape too. It's the most degrading thing a girl can do to herself and her family. The porn industry has brainwashed you girls into thinking it's perfectly fine and ok to do porn. You might not care to degrade yourself but think about what you're doing to your family members, they are the ones who's really devastated and humiliated when you girls decide to become porn stars. Just imagine your family members seeing your porn videos every where online and what that does to them psychologically, emotionally. If Sasha was my sister, I would be destroyed, heart broken for the rest of my life...I would not want to be around any friends, they fact they know my sister does porn, her videos are all over the internet. It would ruin my life, wether I accepted or not.
peaceful harmony Ironic that you call yourself "peaceful harmony" and then degrade people for their non-harmful, fully consensual choices. Too self conscious. Once you make your own choices, freeing yourself from the negative opinions of others, you'll live a much happier life. Their is really no degradation in making your own, fully consensual choices. She was free to leave at any point.
+Freya Stuart If there's nothing wrong with doing porn, why did the school not let the kids know who Sasha Gray really is. Why were the parents so angry about the situation? Why did the school tried to deny she was ever at the school reading to kids? Please answer those questions. I'm just educating you naive girls that there are ever lasting consequences for doing porn. By the way, Sasha wasn't invited to The View because of something great she did, it's rather for something negative, controversial involving her. And they just decided to invite her there mainly for television rating purpose. I'm just letting you the consequences of doing porn, it's your life you do as you please.
peaceful harmony I don't know why the parents were angry, hence my point throughout. Society is ridiculous and Sasha was invited on the View because it was widely reported and many thought she was treated unfairly. If everyone agreed in shaming her, there would be nothing to defend and no point in having her on the show
It is discernible through veneer of confidence that she is fragile. She does not attempt to rebut the hosts when they disrespectfully attempt to paint her as some sort of victim because in the end, she acknowledges this subconsciously.
This debate is ridiculous. Yes, Sasha Grey was once a porn star, but why should anyone care what she did in the past? It wasn't like she walked into that class room and started making a porn move. She read a book to a bunch of kids; who, by all accounts had a good time, were is the harm there? Some of the arguments this panel were making is just ridiculous.
+Mustard Scroll The Portrait of Dorian Grey, apparently. Now how do you get inspired by that book to become a pornstar... well, that's beyond my understanding
Sasha has more than proven her worth, "post adult". She's always been upfront about why she entered that industry and it seems to me that her motivation was quite noble! Anyone who sees her new content will understand that she's moved on and is creating a real mozaic of watchable stuff!
Scarlett O Hara I saw "The girlfriend experience" and "Would you rather" and they were pretty good movies. Actually, would you rather is a good horror movie if you like movies like "saw" "the killing room" "the exam" "panic button" "247F" etc.... 6.5/10 i rank it.
She is the female keanu reeves I swear she never ages! She's a great twitch steamer now for anyone who doesn't know and is probably one of the most "well behaved" women on twitch
It is a shame that people judge her based on her past. Look at all the other famous people who have done far worse things and are still held in high regards.
@NicolaWriter @angerbell3 and again, I must add that she's not telling them ANYTHING about sex. She's reading them STORIES. The chances of the students searching her are incredibly slim, and the chances of them being able to access any of her material (if their parents are PARENTING) is also incredibly slim. High horse. Down. Now.
I'm a mother, she is not an appropriate figure to be reading to children on a public forum... I would definitely not approve... God forbid one of the kids somehow finds out, who she is or there's just too many variables..
Just watching this now and thinking if i was a male performer in the past, i would say don't visit nursery or primary school venues , 16 ++ colleges and universities would be more suitable -- i dont think anyone bat a eyelid in the further and higher education venues if she gave a lecture there. She is not a criminal but she has to accept this adult performing profession will result obstacles in your life forever and is not feasible to try to fight everyone of them directly! I mean are the parents in the school suppose to observe their children online every minute of the day to ensure they dont search this "actor"?
I really don't get why these women are being so condescending to her. Like asking her "why this" "why that". It's stupid, just because she used to be a porn star doesn't mean she's stupid
Forget the fame for a second. Let's say you had a run of the mill local prostitute in her place. Would this be a contested issue or just immediately a poor choice.
Doesn't hurt that Sasha's a fan of Black Flag, Christian Death, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Current 93, Joy Division, KMFDM, NWA, Parliament-Funkadelic, PIG, The Stooges, and Throbbing Gristle either.
@deadmetrix And I mean to say there is a line where if the person is a genuinely harmful criminal or person, they shouldn't be anywhere near the school. But she isn't harming anyone else.
Even if the parents were informed, the is sick! She shouldn't have done anything with children and young teenagers. Kids ask questions, google, and you can't just lead them to pornography. There's an age for everything.
Bunch of bs, she went in adult industry to change stereotype views...yuh. She went in to make lots of money cause she looked like a young teen. So some Hollywood director who had the hots for her and put her in his film, did it for something on the side. If
it was done by a parent.he paid a snapper after he googled sasha's real name.she was suppose to do a few other schools but had to pull out because of this.the thing i hate is they dont go around calling people ex mcdonalds worker now a-lister actor ect.its a job nothing more really
