Stacey
Bentley

Stacey Bentley is an American bodybuilder who competed during the formative years of organized women's bodybuilding in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Her most notable competitive appearance came at the 1980 Ms. Olympia, where she demonstrated sufficient conditioning and muscularity to place third in the Women's Bodybuilding division while also competing in the overall Ms. Olympia category, where she finished fifth. These placements at bodybuilding's premier contest reflected her standing among the elite female competitors of that era, when the sport was still establishing its categories and judging standards. Bentley's career occurred during a pivotal period when women's bodybuilding was gaining recognition as a distinct competitive discipline, separate from the earlier fitness and figure competitions that had dominated women's physique sports.
