Trina Parks: “Diamonds Are Forever,” 1971
Trina Parks in “Diamonds Are Forever” looks fierce and fabulous in her two-piece bikini. The intricate details on her neck and arm elevate the outfit from ordinary to iconic. The film, a classic James Bond adventure, follows 007 as he uncovers a diamond smuggling operation and faces off against the villainous Blofeld.
Trina plays Thumper, one of the henchwomen, delivering a memorable performance with a side of serious style. She began her career in the 1960s as a dancer and actress. Her major works include appearances in “The Muthers” and “Darktown Strutters,” but it’s her role in “Diamonds Are Forever” that left an indelible mark on cinematic history.
