PAM GRIER

We remember Pam Grier particularly her brave performances in Blaxploitation movies during the 1970s. The actress had her debut back in 1973, in Jack Hill’s Coffy. Pam would see her career in movies flourish further, eventually getting cast in The Man with the Iron Fists and Jackie Brown. She’s not new to working on the small screen either, with her most recent TV credit coming from The L Word.

Pam remains active to this day and we’re certainly glad for it. She’s still choosing diverse characters, with her most recent project said to revolve around 4 grandmothers who end up accidentally killing a con artist! Though she may be living her life in the fast lane, she is not spared from rumors and pressing issues as well. Just this year, she was swamped with Stage 4 Cancer rumors where she eventually broke her silence and debunked the issues thrown her way.
