FINALLY! I always wondered how such an iconic person as the lover in the Thriller video could just be MIA most of her life after people STILL watch that video every single year. Idk what she's been up to, but she definitely seems like someone who loves life and gives positive vibes, hence her youthfulness! I can't imagine how the feels are going knowing MJ can't be there with her again :(

She's so beautiful and about to be 60 and I wouldn't even guess her to be that old! She looks in her early to mid 40s if that. Love MJ too the media gave him a bad rep, I don't believe he would've done anything that they accused him of. He's so genuine and missed.

The videoclip of Thriller will remain one of the best clips of a song ever made, even if it scared me when I was little, particularly the scene where she run in the old house to save herself by the zombies 😂

What a wonderful moment in Ms. Ray's life......it's neat that MJ gave the role to someone he sensed was sweet and real aside from being beautiful when he could have insisted on a known star......Ms. Ray was adorable in the video and I'm happy for her having that unique experience!

Michael Jackson's most successful album Thriller is atleast 3 and a half decades old.Sadly King Of Pops will be missed by over millions of fans world wide.........but fortunately his co-star for the Thriller track Ola Ray is alive to share with us the entire mementos behind the song & its shooting. The song must have spooked Ola in her dreams that it is completely pale now.

[@ryanamari2233]

I wonder if they made that house a national landmark so that it remains untouched and is only touched to keep it in its thrilling thriller condition

[@Michaelraymondonkeys]

ryan tabb it's been touched many times already

[@littlecasino60]

That's what I wondered. I thought it was on a studio backlot but that doesn't appear to be the case. You would think the neighbors would complain about living next door to a crumbling house but if it's a landmark..?? then maybe not.

Great interview. She's aged gracefully. I've heard about her posing for Playboy, but she was also naked in a shower scene when her character was brutally murdered by a serial killer in an intense Charles Bronson police/slasher movie called 10 to Midnight. Actress Kelly Preston, John Travolta's wife, also played a murder victim in the movie as well.
