Grace is one of my all time favorites.. I was about to say she is one of my favorite divas, but she was really much more than just a "diva".. That photo is just the iconic Grace Jones shot.. 8)

Do you remember that Interview photo session in which Keith Haring did graffittis in white over la Grace's black nude body, with Robert Mapplethorpe doing the pics? THAT was really something!
This idea (white on black) was also used to a very similar effect in a 1986 movie called Vamp, also with -and ON- Grace Jones, for a knock-out strip-tease scene.

Wasn't that bodypainting done for a performance at the Garage? She had on all this whack ass wire and such. For some reason I thought it was for the garage...hmmm.
For myself, THE grace shot is from the late 70's, she's dancing in a breezy canvasy type jumper with loose sleeves, holding a snifter of brandy and her tit's hanging out for all to see. So "devil may care" and SO Grace.
