Do anybody know why "One Man Show" has not been released on DVD yet?

I've read on her myspace page that she suppose to have a CD out either this year or in 2008. The CD is called "Corporate Cannibal". I'm glad that she is coming out with new music. smile

My favorite Grace Jones CD is her 1986 release, INSIDE STORY, produced by Nile Rogers. "I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect For You)" is a great song, ya'll!!!



if you don't go into it expecting the sly & robbie magic, this is a really entertaining album. i was let down by it when i first heard it, but i was expecting another "warm leatherette" or "nightclubbing", and this is a totally different party. i love the video for "i'm not perfect" with andy warhol and keith haring, and there's great stuff on the album like "chan hitchhikes to shanghai" and "hollywood liar", which aren't as arty and extreme as her classic stuff, but are still great mid-80s dance music. nod

nod Absolutely..

I don't think any other era than the 80s could have created something like Grace Jones as a celebrity. And I don't exactly remember what it was like to watch her on the TV as a child, but I think it was a mixed sentiment of bewilderment, adoration and unintrestedness. Like, as a kid, you didn't really want her to be in all those movies and would have rather seen some other kind of character there instead occupying the creen, but at the same time she was on some level more beautiful than many of the actresses they'd given the female lead roles to.

I know. She has the kind of looks that Hollywood won't consider "pretty enough" for certain roles but I'm glad she had the opptunity to do it.

I love Grace Jones. She does not give a damn!

And I love her look! So distinctive and striking. It has a charm and rapture of its own. She really is unparalleled.

I always thought Grace Jones had the most amazing bone structure ever. And even now in her mid-50s she still looks great. She isn't everyone cup of tea and as someone said she could be Fierce with a capital F.

She's in her mid 50s? She looks great! omg
