We're not perfect we all have things that people might not like to see, and I like to show my faults.
Grace Jones
Image
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.

Image
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.

I didn't think I had a voice at all, and I still think of myself as an interpreter of songs more than a singer. I thought it was too deep people thought I was a man. I had a very strong Jamaican accent, too the accent really messed me up for auditions.

Image
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.

Image
I never thought I was going to be a singer. That was an accident.

I'm not a rock star, I'm a soft person.

When you become such a strong personality in music, it's hard for people to accept you as a different character.

I hate prescription drugs! They don't tell you everything that is in them.

My dad's family were political and he was always a theatrical creature, whereas my mum is really musical and her father was the touring pianist with Nat King Cole. My family was an explosive mixture of politics, religion and music - no wonder I turned out how I did.

I don't think 'pop' should mean that you had no talent.

Rock n' roll can get quite overwhelming. You can get caught up in the cycle.

I came from a very strict background, and didn't hear any Jamaican music when I was growing up.

My husband used to shout at my mother, 'What is wrong with your daughter? I'm married to a man.'
