  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. 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.
