Supermodels have played challenging and distinguished jobs for years, demonstrating that talent and beauty are not incompatible. Grace Jones was one of the prominent faces in the modeling industry who entered the film industry to explore the cinematic realm. From runways to photo shoots, everyone appreciated her; in addition, her one admirer was a dynamic bodybuilder, Arnold Schwarzenegger. 

One can say that models like Grace from the era of the 90s spectacularly took the modeling profession to another level with their charm. In addition, Schwarzenegger complimented her bold personality by describing an unbelievable incident in his movie, ‘ Conan the Destroyer,’ in 1984.

During an interview with David Letterman on his late-night show in 1984, Arnie described an incident about Grace. He stated, “She hospitalized, probably 12 people. One guy, one guy, was standing there in front of her. Like this, he was just standing there, and he was getting ready for the hit. Then it did. It did only a second, and the guy, well, and he went down. I mean, he got called heavy.”

Adding further, Schwarzenegger said, “He turned white. This hurts down there.” Then, narrating his worries as appreciation, the Austrian Oak commented, “People like to know something in movies. It doesn’t matter if you kill people because as if you’re hot and a screen. That’s what counts, and she’s so hot than a screen. She’s she sizzles off that screen, and she will be fancy, and she will be hired over and over again.”
