Like some celebrities, Paulina found popularity because of the name of her family. She is the daughter of former professional ice hockey player Wayne Gretzky and actress Janet Jones, and the niece of Brent and Keith Gretzky. She also gained popularity on the internet through a series of racy pictures she posted on Twitter and Instagram which include her in swimsuits.
Gretzky attended Nightingale-Bamford High School, and after matriculating was accepted into the School of American Ballet. However, she decided not to pursue college in order to focus on a career in music and acting. This eventually led to her first public performance at the 2003 Heritage Classic where she performed “I Will Remember You”. She then signed with AO Recordings, and released the song “Collecting Dust” which was featured in “Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County”, which became available digitally through iTunes and has found moderate success.
Paulina would then find a career in modelling, making her debut on a cover of Flare during August 2005. Aside from these, she made an appearance as Bikini Girl Daisy in the film “Grown Ups 2” which starred Adam Sandler. Prior to that appearance, she was a part of “In God We Trust” and “Fame”. She also continued to make appearances in other publications including magazines such as Golf Digest, and AskMen.
For her personal life, it is known that Paulina became engaged to professional golfer Dustin Johnson in 2013 and they had a son two years later. Their relationship had some issues since Dustin was accused of taking drugs and having affairs with the wives of other professional golfers. According to reports, she didn’t appear at his father’s retirement announcement because she felt that she would cry a lot if she was there.
Gretzky also does charity work from time to time, recording a CD that was used for a benefit. She has performed at various events, for example singing the Canadian National Anthem at several hockey games. Having originally come to fame through social media, her Instagram and Twitter accounts are very active. She has over 473,000 followers on Instagram and has around 291,000 followers on Twitter.
