Early career By her own account, Monique Covét started her hardcore porn career almost by accident. After arriving in Paris for what she believed was another series of routine modeling shoots, her agent there recommended her for a Private Media casting session where she met French hardcore director and actor Pierre Woodman. "They offered me a lead role right away as they said I had star quality", she said. "I am the kind of person who tries everything once. Everyone was so kind to me. I thought that if this is the situation, why not try it?". In 2015, Covét was described in the film Best of Private 50th Anniversary as "one of the five most legendary and formative porn actresses of the past 50 years".

Personal life Details of her life and career are featured in the book Hungarian Female Adult Models. In 2022, Monique collaborated with writer Havas Henrik on a book, Pornósztár Diplomával: A Felnőttfilmes Oscaroktól a Szexuális Tanácsadásig (English translation: Pornstar with a Degree: From Adult Film Oscars to Sexual Counselling).
