Former American porn star Sasha Grey ditched her acting career and worked as a nurse for pro-Russian rebels fighting in eastern Ukraine until she was brutally murdered by Ukrainian government forces.
That, at least, is according to an anti-Kyiv propaganda campaign featuring a photo of Grey that has appeared on Russian social media networks, including Odnoklassniki, a social media site popular among people over the age of 30.
Grey’s likeness was used in a fake post on Dvach (the Russian equivalent of English language imageboard website 4chan)
The Moscow Times explains: “The story says that a nurse named ‘Sasha Serova’ was captured by Ukrainian military forces, who then filmed themselves ‘humiliating’ her before chopping her body up with an ax. Notably, the last name ‘Serova’ is similar to the Russian word for ‘gray.'”
Grey, who is very much alive and not taking part in the Ukrainian conflict, which has claimed the lives of more than 5,600 people since it began in April 2014, is not at all comfortable with her latest role.
