Lentz-Cornette was born in Niederkorn, in the southern commune of Differdange. She entered the communal council of Sanem in 1968, and remained there until 1985, in addition to holding the position of échevin (1970 – 1980) in the commune's administration. Lentz-Cornette was elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 1979. She served only one term (until 1984), having become one of Luxembourg's six MEPs in 1980, replacing Jean Spautz. Lentz-Cornette sat in the European Parliament for two terms, including one full term, until 1989. In that year, she joined the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, of which she remained a member until 1999. She served two more spells in Sanem's communal council (1997 – 1999, 2001 – 2003), before retiring.
