Grace Jones
Julia Restoin-Roitfeld recently reported that one of Carine Roitfeld's idols is Grace Jones, "They worked often together when Grace was engaged to Jean-Paul Goude." This Jamaican-born singer, model, and actress is considered an icon of the 1980s. Famous for her severe, androgynous look, Grace was muse to Andy Warhol and her body served as canvas for Keith Haring's tribal patterns on a few occasions. Her number one dance hits include: "
I Need A Man," "Slave To The Rhythm," "Love on Top of Love (Killer Kiss)," and "Sexdrive." Carine and Grace also share a love for Alaïa; in fact, Grace once carried the designer on stage in her arms to receive a French fashion award.

It is good to see some pictures of Grace Jones. She was awesome in Conan the Destroyer.
you are so cute.
"I" julia restoin roitfeld have never reported this.
Encore une fois, merci de verifier vos infos sur moi et ma famille avant de les publiers.
I quote from this web site:
http://stylerumor.com/tag/julia-restoin-roitfeld/
"Julia Restoin Roitfeld confessed that her mother would have loved the event “my mother loves matthew and Grace Jones is of her idole, they worked often together when Grace was engaged to Jean-Paul Goude”."
So I do apologize for my loose use of the word "reported" and I shall be glad to change it to "confessed" if it pleases you. Shall I send material to the email address given for verification in the future? I shall first need verification of your identity for purposes of verification, naturally. Merci mille fois for your interest, Ms. Restoin-Roitfeld.
i never "confessed" this.
Thank you
