Ola Ray
The former Playboy Playmate beat out thousands of women hoping to be cast in the short film musical that became a sensation on MTV.
However, life post-“Thriller” didn’t go so smoothly for Ray. In 2002, PEOPLE Magazine revealed that after the "Thriller" video was released she stopped working because she refused to give “sexual favors” to producers.
More than three decades later, a photo of the now 56-year-old Ray has been uncovered by CloserWeekly from her Facebook page. She has generally remained out of the public eye since her '80s fame.

According to Ray: “I didn’t know that I was going to be a part of history,” she said in 2009. “But that’s the way it turned out, and I’m thankful.”
