GRACE JONES| 69

Grace Jones was quite successful in everything she did – -she was an actress, a model, and a singer. She was recognized as one of the most successful dance artists in history by Billboard Magazine. Even though she isn’t as active as she was back in the day, she still creates time to make song collaborations. Despite her age, she doesn’t look like someone who would ever need nursing insurance, but we sure hope she has made investments into getting a remarkable retirement life.

Jones was born in Jamaica but her family migrated to New York, the city where she began her modeling career. As time passed, she appeared in prestigious fashion magazines like Vogue, and in 1977, she began focusing on her music career. The film Conan the Destroyer was her first feature film with former California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger. She was one of the cast members of the James Bond movie A View to a Kill — she played May Day. She is still active and has collaborated with numerous musicians, and her cross-dressing image heavily influenced iconic singers like Lady Gaga.
