She once shouted, “Let’s rock!” before storming into battle against alien monsters. Today, she’s rocking something entirely different — a quiet life in Los Angeles, far from the chaos of Hollywood.
At 65, Jenette Goldstein — the fearless Private Vasquez from Aliens — has traded pulse rifles for passion projects. Once Hollywood’s go-to tough woman, she now spends her days running errands, smiling at fans, and running a lingerie brand that celebrates confidence and comfort.
After stealing scenes in blockbusters like Aliens, Terminator 2, and Titanic, Jenette stepped away from the spotlight to build something new. Her company, Jenette Bras, was born from one simple idea: “The alphabet starts at D.” Designed for fuller-busted women, her shop became a symbol of empowerment and self-acceptance. “I’ll never forget the woman who cried with joy during a fitting,” Jenette shared. “It was about more than a bra — it was about feeling beautiful again.”
From battling aliens to uplifting real women, Jenette Goldstein has proven strength takes many forms. Fans still line up at Comic-Cons to meet her — not just because she played a warrior, but because she is one.
