Pam Grier

Pam Grier is nothing like other actresses. She defies the standard of beauty as she did not have the usual light skin color and adorable blue eyes and blonde hair and still make it to be the first female protagonist. But what made her stand out and loved by many is her acting and her genre of movie. Branded by Quentin Tarantino as the first female action star, Grier starred and is highly accredited in 1970s women in prison and “blaxploitation” movies. She was seen in the films like The Big Bird Cage, Coffy, Foxy Brown, and Sheba, Baby.

Since then, Grier has been raking in a lot of cash. She had a relationship with the stand-up comedian Richard Pryor. Unfortunately, they didn’t end up tying the knot. Thankfully, she is now better and is still looking good at 71. She must have used her savings to acquire a health insurance.
