Sasha Grey's sex scenes cut in Soderbergh's movie

Washington (ANI): Award-winning American pornographic actress Sasha Grey's sex scenes in veteran director Steven Soderbergh's movie The Girlfriend Experience were cut after he decided they were not required. Soderbergh, 46, had discovered Grey, 21, in Los Angeles Magazine, and he was determined to hire her to play the part of a high-class NYC hooker in his new drama.

But, oddly enough, even though she is an X-rated film star, she did not have to bare much or even do a sex scene. "Steven never really said if there was going to be a sex or scene or not, but in the outline it did say for three different scenes, 'Sex Scene with Chris', 'Sex Scene with Client B', 'Sex Scene with the Hobbyist'. I never really knew," Fox News quoted her as saying.

"But I knew he (Soderbergh) wouldn't have a sex scene for the sake of sex," she said. According to Soderbergh, he had looked closely at the script, and then decided "it wasn't necessary".
