Grey was featured in the November 2006 edition of Los Angeles magazine, which flagged her as a potential major star, perhaps the next Jenna Jameson. In 2007 she won 2 AVN awards. She was also nominated as Best New Starlet, but lost to Naomi. In May of 2007, she was the recipient of the best new Starlet award by the X Rated Critics Organization. She is half of the experimental music/art project known as ATelecine. Grey also aspires to produce independent films; since the inception of her career in the porn industry, she has begun the filming of a documentary that she hopes will illustrate her experience from the age of 18 to 21. She was chosen Penthouse Pet of The Month for July 2007; the spread is considered to be a radical change for the magazine as it was photographed by the fashion photographer Terry Richardson. She is also featured as part of the art work for The Smashing Pumpkins 2007 album Zeitgeist. She stars in and suggested the title for the movie Broken, directed by Janes Addictions Dave Navarro. Before deciding on her present stage name she was toying with the name of Jean-Luc Godards ex-wife Anna Karina.
