“Hipster” porn star Sasha Grey will star as Eminem’s girlfriend in a clip for ‘Space Bound’.
Eminem is preparing to release the fourth single from his mega-smash album Recovery, and despite a couple of Grammys and newfound critical respect, he’s keeping it gritty by acting alongside a porn star in the clip.
Of course, Sasha Grey isn’t your regular blonde, botoxed, big-boobed porn star.
She made a name for herself in porn with more extreme acts, then scored a lead in a Steven Soderberg film, and pursued decidedly hipster interests like writing industrial music and a book, and doing photo-shoots with Richard Kern for Vice.
Looking at the on-set photos at Rap-Up, it looks like a down and dirty clip, set in a grubby diner with Grey and Em in low-key outfits.
Seems appropriate for the song, which is an angry, lovelorn ballad.
The clip is being directed by Joseph Kahn, who worked with Eminem on the video for the hit single ‘Love the Way You Lie’.
