Grace Jones tops the list as one of the female veteran entertainers with a controversial lifestyle involving many lovers. She once pulled a gun on her then-boyfriend, Dolph Lundgren. Meet her.
Grace Jones was a Jamaican native who migrated into the US with her family at age 13. She has always had a strong personality, which had its bad side, and got her on the wrong side of the law as a teenager.
Jones was once arrested for misconduct with her then Native American boyfriend. The youngsters broke a window, kicked a police car and an officer.

As she advanced in age, the young adult showed her determination. She became interested in the fashion industry and joined modeling.
Jones's career blossomed owing to her androgynous appearance, scoring her a spot with famous modeling agencies and magazines like Elle and Vogue.
As soon as the 1970s kicked in, she transitioned to music. She recorded a few famous hits under the "Island Records" music label, which earned her celebrity status.
The former model did not stop there; she strived to make a mark in the movie world and began to bag roles in famous hits like "Conan the Destroyer," "Gordon's War," and her May Day role in the James Bond film, "A View to a Kill."
GRACE JONES KIDNAP CONTROVERSY
The talented young woman lived an eccentric romantic lifestyle involving a handful of known faces in the industry. She was romantically linked to "A View to a Kill" co-star and former bodyguard, Dolph Lundgren.
The pair was the celebrity couple from the James Bond film, with matching energy. However, it did not take long before things started to dwindle. Before they separated, Jones pulled a gun on her then-boyfriend in an attempt to stop a kidnap attack.
WAS THERE ANOTHER CONTROVERSY?
Jones was linked to a string of controversial situations. She dated a music producer, Chris Stanley, who she claims died in Jamaica. These two were a dynamic duo, with the actress being very supportive during their relationship.
They topped the headlines after Stanley's arrest and release, but his beloved partner defended him, explaining that they were dragged out after an encounter with an American Airline. Jones claimed their pilot made racial comments and they experienced a flight delay.
WHO ELSE DID JONES DATE?
After her time with Lundgren expired, she moved on to another movie star named Sven-Ole Thorsen in 1990. But six years later, she found love in the arms of a much younger man and her bodyguard, Atila Altaunbay.
Altaunbay was a Turkish Muslim; they were married from 1996 to around 2004. However, Jones claimed that she could not get him to agree to a divorce.
Thorsen soon came back into the picture, and the pair had an open relationship. Another man named Jean-Paul Goude, a designer was involved with the former model for a long time. They also share a son named Paulo.
