Iconic music and film legend Grace Jones gives an in-depth account of her stellar career, professional and personal life, and the signature look that catapulted her into the stardom stratosphere. Grace Jones, a veritable “triple-threat” as acclaimed actress, singer, and model, has dominated the entertainment industry since her emergence as a model in New York City in 1968. Quickly discovered for her obvious talent and cutting-edge style, Grace signed her first record deal in 1977 and became one of the more unforgettable characters to emerge from the Studio 54 disco scene, releasing the all-time favorite hits, “Pull Up to the Bumper,” “Slave to the Rhythm,” and “I’m Not Perfect (But I’m Perfect for You).” And with her sexually charged, outrageous live shows in the New York City nightclub circuit, Grace soon earned the title of “Queen of the Gay Discos.” But with the dawn of the ’80s came a massive anti-disco movement across the US, leading Grace to focus on experimental-based work and put her two-and-a-half-octave voice to good use. It was also around this time that she changed her look to suit the times with a detached, androgynous image. In this first-ever memoir, Grace gives an exclusive look into the transformation to her signature style and discusses how she expanded her musical triumph to success in the acting world, beginning in the 1984 fantasy-action film Conan the Destroyer alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, then the James Bond movie A View to a Kill, and later in Eddie Murphy’s Boomerang. Featuring sixteen pages of stunning full-color photographs, Miss Grace Jones takes us on a journey from Grace’s religious upbringing in Jamaica to her heyday in Paris and New York in the ’70s and ’80s, all the way to present-day London, in what promises to be a no holds barred tell-all for the ages.

Les mémoires tant attendus de Grace Jones ! Voici les mémoires tant attendus de la légendaire Grace Jones. Reine incontestée du spectacle, mannequin, muse, chanteuse, actrice, créature à la plastique si singulière, elle a incarné comme personne les années 1975-1985. Aussi l''exubérance et les dangers de cette décennie traversent-ils cette autobiographie, au casting idéal bien qu''hétéroclite : Andy Warhol, Jean-Paul Goude, Issey Miyake, Dolph Lungren, les vacataires du Studio 54 et ceux du Palace, Luciano Pavarotti, Jessica Lange... Mais ce qui fait de Grace Jones une artiste à part, c''est son goût pour l''avant-garde. Sa musique est un savant mélange de house, de reggae et d''électro, avec des tubes comme Pull up to the Bumper, Slave to the Rhythm, ou encore sa reprise mythique de La Vie en rose. Je n''écrirai jamais mes mémoires retrace le parcours de cette pionnière, de sa Jamaïque natale à sa conquête de New York puis de Paris. Une vie de combattante qui se poursuit encore et toujours, sans aucune concession aux facilités. Auteur, animateur, critique culturel, Paul Morley écrit sur la musique, l''art et le spectacle depuis les années 1970.

Miss Grace Jones: dé vrouw die de muziekwereld vanaf de jaren tachtig domineerde. Herkenbaar aan haar excentrieke stijl en androgyne look en voortdurend een inspiratiebron voor grote sterren, zoals Lady Gaga, Rihanna en Basement Jaxx. In Mijn onvertelde leven doet de iconische legende voor het eerst gedetailleerd verslag van haar succesvolle carrière en persoonlijke leven. Jones vertelt hoe zij aan de discipline en religieuze jeugd op Jamaica wist te ontsnappen. Maar ook de hoogtijdagen in Parijs en New York in de jaren zeventig en tachtig, waar ze een van de onvergetelijke persoonlijkheden in de discoscene werd, komen uitvoerig aan bod. Eindelijk is ze zelf aan het woord: de artiest die het gezicht van de muziekindustrie met haar talent, individualiteit en stijl heeft veranderd. Een onvergetelijk levensverhaal!
