Her real name is Marina Ann Hantzis. She was born on March 14, 1988, in Sacramento, California. At the age of five, her parents went through a small shake-up, with her parents divorcing. Her mother remarried soon after, when Grey was 12.
By 17, Grey was able to obtain an education in school. Quickly after high school, she went to a college where she learned acting and music. At 18, having worked at a restaurant and saved up enough money, she headed to Los Angeles. In Los Angeles, her producer was Mark Spiegler. They selected a stage name for Marina, Sasha, which she borrowed from a vocalist she knew. Grey was borrowed from Alfred Kinsey's sexual orientation scale. There is also a version that the surname was taken in honor of the character Dorian Gray.
Her career in adult films began in J. Stagliano's "The Fashionistas 2", where she participated in an orgy scene with Rocco Siffredi. When the scene was shot, Grey asked to be kicked in the stomach to create a more intense feeling. In later interviews with Grey, she admitted to liking to be lightly choked, slapped, hair pulled, among others during sex. According to her, she experiences orgasm in 75% of her scenes. Like many adult film actresses, Grey has her taboos. For her, scenes involving rape, children, breast slapping, excrement, and animals are forbidden. Everything else is acceptable to her.
She was nominated for many awards from 2007 to 2010. In 2008, she opened an agency representing herself. Through the agency, she plans to help up-and-coming actors develop their careers.
In 2011, Grey announced that she had ended her career in adult films, which disappointed many of her fans. Nevertheless, her memes are still very popular on the internet.
