More quotes by Grace Jones
I like to isolate myself when I work because I end up losing my voice by doing interviews all day.
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
I thought I'd take style to its limit... My philosophy is a belief in magic, good luck , self-confidence, and pride.
Grace Jones
I don't like people who hide things.
Grace Jones
I always thought that feminine, softer side was just too vulnerable to put out there, because then it's like you're opening up a door for everybody to come in, and you don't know who's going to come in that door.
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
Whatever bling always has something to hide.
Grace Jones
I was the only black girl at my junior high school. I had an afro, a Jamaican accent, I looked really old.
Grace Jones
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.
Grace Jones
My mother was a champion high-jumper. My three brothers are basketball players. We've all been very athletic.
Grace Jones
You can't expect your children to be perfect.
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
My husband used to shout at my mother, 'What is wrong with your daughter? I'm married to a man.'
Grace Jones
I like to think of myself as a positive person. Otherwise I wouldn't have had a child.
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
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
Models are there to look like mannequins, not like real people. Art and illusion are supposed to be fantasy.
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 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 am an actress first, a singer second.
