Jennifer Grey, the star of “Dirty Dancing,” has had a fascinating career and personal life. After the triumph of “Dirty Dancing,” Jennifer’s acting career stagnated in the 1990s. She did, however, have several memorable appearances, including Rachel’s friend Mindy in “Friends” and a guest appearance on “House.”When she was paired with professional dancer Derek Hough, she won the US series “Dancing With The Stars” in 2010.
She also replaced Len Goodman as a guest judge on “Strictly Come Dancing.”Jennifer hails from a well-known family. Her father, Joel Grey, earned Academy, Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Tony Awards for his work as Master of Ceremonies in the Broadway and film adaptations of the musical “Cabaret,” which featured Liza Minnelli. Jennifer Grey’s appearance has evolved over time as a result of a contentious nose operation she had in the early 1990s.
She attributes the procedure’s unfavorable impact on her career to the extreme change in her face. “I went into the operating room a celebrity and came out anonymous,” she said in 2012, expressing her sadness. It was the worst nose job ever. “I’ll always be this once-famous actress who no one remembers because of a nose job.” Jennifer Grey’s age is presently 60 years old. It has been nearly 33 years since the debut of “Dirty Dancing” in 1987.
She was 26 years old when she played the legendary Baby Houseman in the film, for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. Jennifer has had high-profile relationships with Johnny Depp and Matthew Broderick, her “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” co-star. She is now married to Clark Gregg, best known for his role as Agent Coulson in the Marvel Avengers films and “Agents of Shield.” They married in 2001 and have a daughter named Stella.
