Pam Grier is an icon. Not only was she a star of badass blaxploitation films like Coffy and Foxy Brown, but she was also one of the first female action stars. That means we got see her whoop ass, take names, and bare her big balloons while she did it. She's this week's #TBT, so let's dive into just how smoking hot this chocolate goddess was back in her heyday.
Her debut was in Russ Meyers' Beyond the Valley of the Dollsbefore she got extra sexy in the prison movie The Big Doll House. Not only did she shower and show off her milky wet jugs, she also mud wrestles naked in one scene. It's every skintastic fantasy rolled into one movie!
Her sexy prison action films didn't stop there. She immediately followed The Big Doll House up with Women in Cagesthat had Pam wearing cleavage-bearing tops throughout the film. In one scene one of her huge honkers pops out of her top!
We love that she then became a major blaxploitation star. She was famous for roles in Foxy Brown, Scream Blacula Scream and Sheba, Baby. We fell in love with her for her skintabulousrole as Coffy in Coffy.
She continued showing off herjumbo yum-yums in the epic film The Arena where she danced so seductively with flowers over her crotch. What a skintillatingtease!
Pam has never stopped being sexy and she continues to be a powerhouse star. She's had major clothed roles in The L Word, Mars Attacks! and even This Is Us, but we love her best when she was showing off her tig ol' bittieswhich is why Pam Grier is this weeks #TBT.
