Grace Jones on Lady Gaga Any number of artists have asked to collaborate with her. Was Lady Gaga one of them?
"I just don't play with other acts as a rule," she says, with rare discretion. What does she think of her? "I really don't think of her at all. I go about my business." Has she copied her? "Well, you know, I've seen some things she's worn that I've worn, and that does kind of piss me off." Is she talented? "I wouldn't go to see her." So, did she ask to play with her? "Yes, she did, but I said no. I'd just prefer to work with someone who is more original and someone who is not copying me, actually." http://www.guardian.co.uk...-interview | |

Grace Jones sounds bitter and jealous. Lady Gaga isnt copying anyone, but has she borrowed from other artists, yes! Aint nothing wrong with that. Gaga obviously has been inspired by many artists and singers of the 70s/80s, not just Grace Jones. Grace is jealous of Gaga's enormous success because Gaga is doing some of what Grace did and is getting rave reviews for it. Grace needs to stop hating.

I am not saying a WORD. Grace Jones scares me.She is the type of person who would stand over you in the middle of the night with a butcher knife or poison your food. I am NOT messing with Grace. "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Jealous of what? Long nose jacking her style and claiming she's "an artist"? Sit with that mess. | |

Grace does not want to talk about Gaga! She has better things to talk about like herself. | |

Yeah you can tell she was annoyed by the question. Well the thing is that the interviewers are as dumb as the public. Every single interviewer today is looking for that soundbyte to sell their rag. Grace Jones sits for an interview and what is asked of her in countless questions? another fucking artist. I mean its a tired issue already, no one knows how to conduct good interviews at this point, they all suck, as do the magazines that employ them, and blogs and online sites are worse.

A true artist knows when to exit before overstaying their welcome. Look at Bjork, she knows she's appreciated in small doses. Today's artist/managers/labels push their artist in our faces way way too much too soon and the public backlash is inevitable. My comment doesn't have anything to do with Grace's attempt to be above the fray. For that alone, she deserves credit cause I would CUT INTO Gaga's tired self. Space for sale... | |

Grace was doing it when it was avant garde; Gaga is doing it now that its mainstream. Grace was art. Gaga is product. a psychotic is someone who just figured out what's going on | |

Copying vs borrowed. VERY thin line. Gaga is one of the most unoriginal overhyped artists around right now. Grace has nothing to be jealous of. She's done her thing, and that's why there's a comparison. There was someone doing all this before Gaga - IT WAS GRACE JONES! Grace is the original here. | |
