How much Ms. Grey has had a hand in the marketing of her image is hard to tell, but I can only say this: It's genius. She has obviously seen that the whole crazy-hair/piercings/tattoo sleeves image which used to make the cut for Alt-Porn (Suicide Girls), has gone mainstream by this point (Rock of Love Bus), and you gotta up the ante a bit to set yourself apart.
so you read a few Freshman-Lit novels, pepper your speech w/ words like "transgressive" & "dialectic", put some seminal indie cinema titles in your Netflix queue and BAM: we got a Gen-Y Sexual Vanguard.
hey, I like my smut just as much as the next sad lonely basement dweller, but this chick ain't gonna pull one over on me. I can spot a poseur from a mile away.
I am kind of intrigued by the whole hype storm that has formed around her in the past month or so.
