"(The only case like that I know of is the porn star Belle Knox, who is something of a genius.)"

Ah, so Sasha Grey isn't the only one. I remember hearing about Belle Knox

From Wikipedia;

"A. O. Scott of The New York Times described her [ Grey's ] pornographic career as 'distinguished both by the extremity of what she is willing to do and an unusual degree of intellectual seriousness about doing it."

.............

"Grey has been an advocate for the adult industry and defended her choice to be a porn actress. In a March 2014 interview, she spoke in defense of the industry and on behalf of outed Duke University student turned porn star, Belle Knox.

I've heard her interviewed under more friendly circumstances than most in Shot by Kern.
