Thriller star Ola Ray unrecognisable 40 years after Michael Jackson video
“It was a very passionate kiss and, you know, we also did a little something else, but that's all I'm gonna say.”
Ola who had previously appeared in George Benson’s video Give Me The Night, was thrust into the spotlight in her early 20s due to her featuring in the Thriller video which became a huge hit when it was released in 1983. She beat off hundreds of hopefuls to feature in the 14-minute video directed by John Landis which took two weeks to film.After shooting had finished she met Jackson one more time at Westlake Studios a few months later when Quincy Jones was producing his Bad album.
She said she got an initial payment of $2,500 for her role in the video but didn’t get another payment for at least two years even though she had signed a lucrative contract.
