She wasn’t exactly a Playboy Bunny (SWIDT?) to begin with.
Eta: awesome song though.

Age is sometimes cruel.
Considering all the drugs she likely consumed throughout her life it’s a miracle she’s gotten by.

Aw man the good ole days when drugs were fun:
"White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane is primarily interpreted as a song about following one's curiosity and exploring altered states of consciousness, particularly through psychedelic experiences.

Grace Barnett Wing was born October 30, 1939, in Highland Park, Illinois, a Chicago suburb, to Ivan Wilford Wing (1907–1987), of British descent,[4] and Virginia Wing (née Barnett; 1909–1983), of Scottish and Danish descent.[5] Her parents met while they were both students at the University of Washington in Seattle,[6] and later married. In 1949, her younger brother Chris was born.[7]
Her father worked in the investment banking sector for Weeden and Company, and the family relocated several times when she was a child. She lived in the Chicago metropolitan area, Los Angeles and San Francisco before her family settled in Palo Alto, California in the early 1950s.[8] Wing attended Palo Alto Senior High School, then transferred to Castilleja School, a private all-girls school in Palo Alto.
She was a rich girl from Illinois that bounced around a lot. In my experience, those types are a lot of fun. The fact she went to an all-girl's school in Palo Alto tells me, yes, she was a firecracker back in her day.

the story goes that grace wrote “white rabbit” after listening to miles Davis’s “sketches of spain”; if you listen to both you can hear the influence
“sketches of Spain” was also reinterpreted by the grateful dead in a common instrumental jam that tape traders labeled “Spanish Jam”
here’s a really good essay on the topic for anyone interested in musicology

Dude it's impressive for anyone to make it to 85, especially a famous rock star who has done every drug imaginable. Grace actually looks good for her age.

here is Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway with a bluegrass version of “white rabbit” where she highlights the opening Spanish guitar lick

Grace Slick Vocals Isolated White Rabbit, a powerful voice.

She also quit the biz and said all rockers should give it up at 50 because they look ridiculous on stage. Not entirely sure she's wrong.
