The gloves are off in the Grace Jones camp ... She has claimed that she turned down the opportunity to play live with Lady Gaga because she is not original enough for her!Grace confirmed to a national newspaper that Lady Gaga made enquiries about the of them collaborating.
Grace Jones said: “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... “I've seen some things she's worn that I've worn, and that does kind of p*ss me off... I wouldn't go to see her.”
She added: “I really don't think of her at all. I go about my business... I just don't play with other acts as a rule.”
Lady Gaga had previously admitted that she is a fan of Grace Jones and described the star as her “Jesus”.
M.I.A and ex-Moloko front woman Roisin Murphy both previously suggested that GaGa mimics their past style... the word ‘jealousy’ springs to mind...
Hi Alan, babe! I quite miss blogging, and of course miss you! I think you said you miss me. Oh no! I remember that was an unrepeatable moment of weakness. Never mind, I still love you.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes. Grace Jones - never the most gracious of stars - is probably as green as green can be over GaGa. And of course GaGa is musically much more successful, and so much more fun. It's hard to control the yawns which well up at the thought of the self regarding bore that is GJ. Love, Alec xx
Miss you ... I’ve no idea what you’re (right one) on about man ... Lol
ReplyDeleteYou are such a tease! Oh you miss me alright, and how! It's like the light went out of your life. And yes it was the right one. You're getting better! Comparatively of course - still not exactly elegant prose you churn out. More like serviceable. Love, Alec p.s. I've had a haircut but for some reason your blog won't load my new pic. Don't say it!!!
ReplyDeletep.s. I meant to say I returned to Twitter! I exchanged a few words with Chris Salvatore who is fun, and up for everything. He has such enthusiasm that guy. His new EP 'Dirty Love' is out on 27th of this month. I don't see that mentioned in your blog AW! Still you did find him for me.
ReplyDeleteI never got into the whole ‘Twitter’ thing ... I’ll check his album out when it’s released and maybe it will make the blog ... Lol
ReplyDeleteHope your keeping well man!
I have my doubts about Twitter as well. I know it's life's blood to lots of people, but it all seems so frenzied (there's me bein 108 again!). I'm a bit on edge every time I go into it. And this wariness seems to make it hard for me to make contacts. Maybe it's doing me more harm than good. It did before! I joined again because of a guy, and that's not done me any good. In answer to your question I'm ok, but could be better. Anyway you don't want all this rubbish sitting on you blog! No! I won't say it!Love Alec xx
