I love Grace Jones, she has zero fucks to give 😍

That is a photo of a 71 year old woman, she is just awesome. Like you say, no fucks to give.

I took DC to see her play last year and they moaned like hell about being made to watch an old woman, until she came on stage and was TOTALLY AWESOME!!! It was amazing, they loved it, even when she wore a huge strap on penis and simulated sex with a backing dancer Grin

I remember when she danced with the hoola hoop at the opening ceremony for the London Olympics. Amazing.

She hoola hooped at the Queen's jubilee too. What a role model.

And played the best Bond Henchwoman ever!

PerditaProvokesEnmity · 19/05/2020 18:50

Happy Birthday to her. FlowersCakeWine

I do think of her on the rare occasions when I pick up my hoola hoop. Really enjoyable exercise but it buggers my knees. (I have a long way to go till 72 ... Hmm)

doubleshotespresso · 19/05/2020 19:00

She's beautifully bonkers I adore her approach to life 👌🏻

megletthesecond · 19/05/2020 19:03

I could come back as another body and attitude I'd come back as her.

She's fab happy birthday Grace

Roselilly36 · 19/05/2020 19:05

Happy Birthday Grace.

SavageBeauty73 · 19/05/2020 19:06

She's my friends aunt. Proper legend. I saw her at a festival in Bristol last summer and she was on the stage with a hula hoop. No fucks given.

SureTry · 19/05/2020 19:06

If only I had an ounce of the confidence she has, my life would be completely different. She is fierce and awesome!

Shmithecat2 · 19/05/2020 19:09

Fell in love with her whilst watching Vamp. Loved her music. Would kill for her body. Skin and bone structure to die for. I think she's glorious.

dementedma · 19/05/2020 19:09

She is awesome but she CANNOT be that old!!

Goawayquickly · 19/05/2020 19:30

She is amazing. One of a kind

VenusTee · 19/05/2020 19:33

In my heard it's circa 1985 and she's still in her 30s!! I first became aware of her with 'Slave to the Rhythm'.

Roger Daltrey and Bonnie Tyler both on the One Show tonight - they both look fantastic imo

Butterymuffin · 19/05/2020 19:35

💪 Go Grace! She's awesome.

Bleepbloopblarp · 19/05/2020 19:35

Fell in love with her whilst watching Vamp

Ooh, I could just watch that tonight! I remember me and my friend watching it aged about 13 and being enthralled!

She’s magnificent isn’t she - one of a kind. Happy birthday Grace if you’re on mumsnet!!

SantanaOhNaNa · 19/05/2020 19:36

She is such an awesome human being. Happy birthday Ms Jones. I am sure she is celebrating in appropriately outrageous fashion.

fuckinghellthisshit · 19/05/2020 21:49

She'll be celebrating in Brixton with Champagne and oysters Grin

She is mad as a box of frogs, with the most incredible skin, posture and attitude.

monkeytennis97 · 19/05/2020 21:59
