More quotes by Grace Jones
There're lots of musicians in my family, too. My mother sings incredibly well. I've got to make a record with my mother's voice on it. She sings a lyric soprano. We do the opposite. I'm a baritone. She's a star singer in her church. She always does her solo.
Grace Jones
I just go with the flow, I follow the yellow brick road. I don't know where it's going to lead me, but I follow it.
Grace Jones
I like dressing like a guy. I love it. When I was modeling I used to do pictures where I would dress up like my little brother. No makeup and I looked like a boy.
Grace Jones
Models are there to look like mannequins, not like real people. Art and illusion are supposed to be fantasy.
Grace Jones
I don't like people who hide things.
Grace Jones
I am an actress first, a singer second.
Grace Jones
I don't think 'pop' should mean that you had no talent.
Grace Jones
That's what they do in Argentina. Have a little wine and talk. Then have some coffee and talk. Then, go back to the wine.
Grace Jones
I was skinny as a rail and had high cheekbones and a very interesting face - or so I was told.
Grace Jones
Disco was like the celebration of music through dance and my God! When you heard the music sometimes it was like, if you don't get up and dance, you aren't human!
Grace Jones
It doesn't surprise me that people can't see beyond my image. It's amazing, but I can understand it. That's what image is for. But it's never a problem for me. It's only a problem for them. I don't really care. I do what I want regardless.
Grace Jones
I'm not a rock star, I'm a soft person.
Grace Jones
I came from a very strict background, and didn't hear any Jamaican music when I was growing up.
Grace Jones
When I started modelling, I'd raise my arms and it was all muscle and all the other models had nothing. Really, everybody thought I was a man. I don't have to do much to have muscles. It's just genetic.
Grace Jones
To be honest, my life is not really as way-out and myth-loaded as people like to portray it.
Grace Jones
When I was modelling, I spent half my life staring at thousands of perfect reflections. It got to a stage where I was losing all sense of reality - so after I quit modelling, I took all the mirrors out of my house.
Grace Jones
There will always be a replacement coming along very soon - a newer version, a crazier version, a louder version. So if you haven’t got a long-term plan, then you are merely a passing phase, the latest trend, yesterday’s event.
Grace Jones
I’VE ALWAYS BEEN A REBEL. I NEVER DO THINGS THE WAY THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE DONE. EITHER I GO IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OR I CREATE A NEW DIRECTION FOR MYSELF, REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE RULES ARE OR WHAT SOCIETY SAYS.
Grace Jones
I never thought I was going to be a singer. That was an accident.
Grace Jones
My mother was a champion high-jumper. My three brothers are basketball players. We've all been very athletic.
