It’s been nearly 30 years since Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video was released, and the woman who played his love interest is filing a lawsuit claiming she hasn’t been paid her share of royalties.
TMZ.com reports that Ola Ray is suing Jackson and his production company to receive her cut of profits from the groundbreaking 13 minute clip, in which her character watches her boyfriend (Jackson) turn into a dancing zombie.
We spoke to Ola Ray’s attorney, who tells us the former Playboy Playmate is suing for breach of contract,” TMZ stated. “We’re told Ola’s not sure exactly how much she’s owed — her accountants will figure that out.”
