Linda Gray

This one is not your usual Hollywood fairytales. Linda Gray did not become famous by landing the leading role in her breakout movie. In fact, she was the body double in the movie The Graduate for Mrs. Robinson. You could say that it launched her into stardom. She also said that she received $25 per leg in that movie! It wasn’t Anne Bancroft’s pair of legs at all! After that, she took the lead in the show Dallas as Sue Ellen. She even reappeared in the same role in the show’s remake. Throughout the years, she has continued to work in the movie industry collaborating with actors like Sylvester Stallone in Oscar. She also starred in The Entertainer and Star of Jaipur. Her most recent work is Prescience where she once again takes the leading role.
