You are absolutely right! There's other people that find something unique about you that you don't see yourself. When you look in the mirror you just see your reflection of your self........not beyond the art of a master piece which is yourself of being a human canvas that someone besides yourself paint you as 🎨🎭. If that makes sense!

She lives life the way she sees fit without a care of what others think. She is the embodiment of the carefree black woman.

I have to disagree. She didnt fit the standards we as women have for ourselves. A lot more women would find her "unattractive" just for being a black woman with short hair and "strong" features however more men were fascinated and attracted to her because of her. She didnt "look" like the women in magazines but she was an EXTREMELY sexual and feminine person. She is the type of woman who other women would complain about because they dont understand why men like them so much. Grace being EXTREMELY Feminine, sexual and gorgeous "made up" for her having short hair which is usually not part of the male gaze

Grace Jones is a work of art. As a white male art student in the '80's, I can tell you that pretty much all male art students (gay or straight) had posters of Jones (along with Pete Burns, ironically) on their walls. The "white objectivity" thing is false imo: 1. Most of her fans were white males (mostly gay, in my personal observation). 2. Her white fans enjoyed her personality and music as well. She is what Yoko Ono tries to be, imo. 3. Beauty is universal...no color requirement that I'm aware of. Good vid!

As an 80s baby we grew up seeing GRACE JONES everywhere. The explanation of her not being a so called conventional beauty maybe not necessary her career speaks for itself. She was a triple threat - model, singer and actress. She was a BOND GIRL. A MUSE for many artists, A 54 studio star!- she broke the mode of so called conventional beauty and they did not want someone like her to happen again because she is a dark beauty that most knew in her presence they could not resist! She dated who she wanted and men melted before her. Her image and music is used from Biggie Smalls and Shine to Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian poses. Anyone with eyes, taste and are truly free of the mind not being sheeple that conform to fit in can see she is an ICON. Grace Jones is one of the reasons I excel as a dark skinned beauty and never let colorism affect me. She taught me conventional is for the peasants - unconventional is for the sophisticated. They want a rare stone diamond not glass that’s everywhere 💁🏾‍♀️. You did an AMAZING job on this video - Thank you 🙏🏾

I grew up in the '80s and '90s, and Grace Jones was still a byword for scary, unattractively masculine woman. I still remember a couple of In Living Color sketches that highlighted this, and I took that image to heart without ever having seen her or heard her music. With the internet, I discovered the real Grace Jones, and think that she is one of the most strikingly beautiful, talented women of all time. Knowing what I know now, it's a shame that she was known more as a caricature because she dared to be a strong, unconventional woman who defied nearly all of the standards that we live with to this day.

My family ALWAYS had several tabloids laying around, & whenever I would see those centerfolds of various fashion icons, if it included any pics of Grace, I was shocked & in awe! I'll never forget the fishnet bodysuit, the chainmail outfit, the unnamed outfit, because no words exist to describe it really; nobody was as BOLD as Grace! And only SHE could pull off those fashion choices. You could tell she picked these shocking ensembles for HER pleasure, & that's the only reason that counts! Oh, & I loved her in Conan the Barbarian, lol. In Living Color did a skit on her that was hilarious, if you are able to find it! I think it was Kim Wayans playing Grace, & she was growling & howling lol. Anyway, I love your channel & videos like this are why!

She was great in the movies to, such a strong personality. And even fairly recently she was singing and hula hooping on stage and she looks and sounds great. maybe because she took such a long break she didn't wear out her voice like so many singer do. And yes, a child's life on the islands is hard, so much abuse is taken for granted.

I adore this lady. She’s so womanly and sexy. Confident. Ballsy. She just knows her look and what people will think and owns it. I love that. She’s wise, elegant, and just not afraid to take room. To me she’s one of the most beautiful women that has ever lived to me.

I knew she was Jamaican without the google shmoogle. My brain just always think she is lol. I get called crazy in Jamaica, but they love me in Japan. My style and femininity is weird to people so I try to fake it and be normal. Honestly I don’t even know what normalcy is. Thank you for this video. I will use it to help me to be myself.

Just watched the movie she filmed back in 2005 that premiered in 2017 (Bloodlight and Bami). Many years in the making. She endured a lot growing up being in her words "crushed underneath the bible" with beating abuse by Mas P. Much respect and love to this woman who is beautiful, made strong and cares for others. I hope at age 74 she is fully living in peace and freedom💗

Grace Jones is my inspiration; as a young child it was unusual to see a richly melanated beautiful woman. She didn't cover her AFRO in the movies and magazines! That was HUGE ❤! Back in the day, I had a poster of her. I wish I thought about putting it in a frame. She is amazing 🤩 and ALL the little black girls wanted to copy her makeup, her expressions, her everything!

Love this lady, with one exception, her actions in front of the kids. Just as I don't give a thought about anyone's sexuality, I am equally as strong minded against anyone taking children and putting them in a situation that is not their right to do. Grace Jones was always just living her own life in her own unique way.

The first time I heard of her was when I went to see the Conan movie and she was a scene stealer...fascinating. Then I realized that I was dancing to some of her songs at the discos. It was the first time I became aware of the concept on androgyny. Her fashion tastes were not always very appealing but I understood that she was an artist. I think that you can not beat Christianity into a person's soul...she was a survivor!

I think the best way to ensure that your child will be wild and rebellious is to beat them and generally be abusive to them much like the adults in Grace Jones’ childhood. Guaranteed!!! Serves them right because what are the children supposed to do: submit?! Good for her!! Growing up, she was definitely an inspiration and her strength and femininity were very important and powerful.

I love her so much. She’s so pretty and when I saw her in Conan the destroyer I definitely got a little more obsessed. Funny you’re making this video and I was just thinking about her in Vamp. I wanna recreate the look she did. Also, her being born in ‘48 is the most plausible because if she was doing gogo in the 60s she would’ve been the right age. She would’ve been 8 by the time the gogo period started if she was born in ‘52. If I’m not wrong it’s her stated birth year online as well.
