Valentine Monnier (born 22 October 1956 in Paris) is a French actress, model and photographer. She appeared on the September 1977 cover of Cosmopolitan magazine, and on the cover art of the album Chic, also in 1977.[1] Monnier had an acting career in the 1980s: she played supporting roles in several French productions and had starring roles in two Italian B-movies. In the mid-1980s, she left acting to work primarily as a photographer.[2] In a November 2019 interview, she accused film director Roman Polanski of violently raping her in Switzerland in 1975 when she was 18.[3][4]
