Career
Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Ray modeled for Playboy and was the Playmate of the Month for the June 1980 issue.[1]
Ray complained in the past about difficulties collecting royalties from her participation in Thriller. At first, Ray blamed Michael Jackson.[3] She ultimately sued Jackson in May 2009 in a dispute to obtain uncollected royalties.[4][5][6] Jackson died less than two months later on June 25 at age 50. In 2012, the Estate of Michael Jackson settled the lawsuit.[7]
