More quotes by 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
I only started getting into furs when the designers I liked started making them.
Grace Jones
It was very painful combing my hair. My grand-uncle was a Pentecostal bishop, and he was very strict: our hair couldn't be permed or straightened. So I just cut it all off.
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
We're not perfect we all have things that people might not like to see, and I like to show my faults.
Grace Jones
Rock n' roll can get quite overwhelming. You can get caught up in the cycle.
Grace Jones
I was skinny as a rail and had high cheekbones and a very interesting face - or so I was told.
Grace Jones
I think I'm doing a service to black women by portraying myself as a sex machine. I mean, what's wrong with being a sex machine, darling? Sex is large, sex is life, sex is as large as life, so it appeals to anyone that's living, or rather it should.
Grace Jones
I am an actress first, a singer second.
Grace Jones
My husband used to shout at my mother, 'What is wrong with your daughter? I'm married to a man.'
Grace Jones
To be honest, my life is not really as way-out and myth-loaded as people like to portray it.
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
Some songs come from my head, some from my throat, but there will always be moments when it is an injection of the soul.
Grace Jones
Whatever bling always has something to hide.
Grace Jones
Now when I enter a carriage, it almost empties. But there's always one brave enough to stay.
Grace Jones
I hate prescription drugs! They don't tell you everything that is in them.
Grace Jones
Women and men grow up with both sexes. Our mothers and fathers mean a lot to us, so it's just a question of finding a balance between their influences. I've found mine. And it tends to be more on the male side. I mean male side the way we understand it in the West.
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 go feminine, I go masculine. I am both, actually. I think the male side is a bit stronger in me, and I have to tone it down sometimes. I'm not like a normal woman, that's for sure.
