Lived with Swedish actor Dolph Lundgren for four years, who appeared with her in the Bond film A View to a Kill (1985), though contrary to popular rumor they were never engaged. He was also once her bodyguard.
Studied theatre at Syracuse University, before becoming a successful model in Paris.
Her androgynous and statuesque style made her extremely successful in New York City's underground and nightlife scenes and her sexually evocative stage shows and songs like "I Need A Man" earned her the title "The Queen of Gay Discos" because of her large following of gay men.
Was signed to one of New York's top modeling angencies but Grace's looks were too strong for American magazines, so she spent several years in Paris working as a successful model.
Speaks French.
