The 64-year-old Jennifer Grey displayed artistic talent from a young age. This is not surprising, as her parents Jo Wilder and Joel Grey have been involved in the entertainment world for many years, instilling in their daughter a love for dance and acting. These were the two fields she studied, which resulted in her landing a commercial for the refreshing drink Dr Pepper when she was 19 years old.
She made her Broadway debut a year later, and her career skyrocketed. She landed a role in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," but the pinnacle of her fame was the role of Frances "Baby" Houseman in the film "Dirty Dancing." The production became a box office hit worldwide, and Grey received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress.
The film, directed by Emile Ardolino, is considered one of the best of the '80s, and its phenomenon endures. Jennifer Grey continued her acting career, appearing in films such as "Wind," "Bloodhounds of Broadway," and "Lover's Knot."
In her personal life, the actress experienced many upheavals. She had romances with well-known actors but did not marry until 2001. Her chosen one was Clark Gregg, from whom she separated in 2020. The couple had a daughter, Stella. In 2010, the actress was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, but despite this, she managed to win the 11th season of America's "Dancing with the Stars."
From 2008 to 2024, she was professionally inactive but very active on social media. Thanks to them, we can see how much Grey has changed over the years. Her beauty has not left her. You can notice how her nose has changed over the years. The star regrets that she had it operated on.
