I dunno about you, but I never realized just how similar Lady GaGa's style was to that of Grace Jones! Well, now the pop icon is calling out Lady GaGa for swagger jacking. Ms. Jones recently spoke to the UK Guardian and had this to say when asked about allegations of Lady Gaga being a copycat and on working with GaGa:
"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.
If you Google Grace Jones you'll see just HOW much Lady Gaga stole her style and swag
ReplyDeleteIm glad she spoke out !
ReplyDeletedont we all technically swagger jack????
ReplyDeleteanything we wear comes from some sort of inspiration right...
and i think its just because Grace Jones and Gaga are the only ones doin what they do thats it's sooo noticeable.
...im waiting on Lil Kim to call out Nicki Minaj STRAIGHT UP!
@Gaga's Monster: My Grrl cool ur jets dont diss the original because if it wasn't for Grace Jones yu wudnt have your precious Grace Jones !
ReplyDeleteNow on to other things, yu know my mom actually pointed it out to me not to long ago personally I feel my mom thinks alot of people copy Grace Jones, but lets be honest she is the original dundata so what can yu do
Malix this is the difference between Gaga v. Grace Jones and Minaj v. Kim Minaj always paid homage to Kim during the earlier stages of her career so that is why alot of these females rappers fuck with Nicki. She pays her respects cuz she knows she is not the first to be a "barbie".
