Description:

Social media users began to share an image appearing to show former adult film star Sasha Grey dressed as a conscription officer.

Images of posters with a woman of Grey’s likeness have been shared on Twitter since November 27, appearing to show the California-born actress and model wearing a green uniform, while sitting at a desk. She can be seen looking at the camera with captions encouraging Russians to join the military […] Grey did not take part or agree to be featured in a Russian government campaign to promote its military service. The film star has confirmed so herself, while the image featured in the tweets is old, part of a composite, and has undergone a number of edits.
