GRACE JONES/BOND

Dolph’s first role was as a henchman in the 1985 Bond film A View To A Kill. He was dating singer Grace Jones – who he claims would bring back as many as five girls for orgies, which he says was “exhausting”. He ditched an MIT scholarship in chemical engineering after Jones suggested he try out for the Bond part. “She was playing the baddie and Roger Moore was Bond,” says Dolph. “He was nice to me. I was just a kid, a nobody. He always smoked a cigar and said, ‘Dolph is larger than Denmark’. “Once, in Cannes, I saw him in a restaurant. In front of about 200 people, he yelled, ‘Oh, Dolph, we’ve got one thing in common – I also hate Jean-Claude Van Damme!’ But I don’t hate Jean-Claude. The trouble was, he’d done a film with Roger and it wasn’t very good.” With ex Grace Jones in 1985
