Amanda Lear is the famous model/singer/actress/TV personality introducing Grace Jones a couple of posts ago on the Italian TV show Stryx. This performance of "Follow Me" on Stryx is the video I wanted to be the main video, but it was disabled. Please click on the link. I love how creative the set designers and choreographers got. I think if this was done today, they would of relied heavily on dopy computer animation. Bravo Team Stryx.
Amanda's real past and identity is unknown. She was Salvador Dali's muse and some say she might be his greatest work of art. Whatever the truth is, I'm sure it will make a great movie, at the very least a great made for TV movie.
Wow! I guess Italy has a love affair with Grace Jones. Here is a duet from Luciano Pavarotti's fundraising concert Pavarotti and Friends. She looks amazing. Now thats what I call great taste.
This is a clip of Grace Jones singing, dancing, and seducing on an Italian television show called Stryx. This show aired the same year I was born and it is a lot more daring and interesting than anything from a performer in the last two decades (Janet Jackson's nipple was not that intriguing and the performance with Beyonce and Sugarland at the VMAs might run a close second). I love the set with the chaise lounges, fake fog, animal fur, and live tiger. It's a really great combo. Grace is awesome because she really knows how to go for it.
Stuff I like and find interesting for one reason or another that I have collected over the years and have presented neatly in my dainty curio cabinet for all my visitors to view behind fingerprint-free glass.
