Grace Jones closed the Tommy x Zendaya runway show in grand style this weekend during Paris Fashion Week. The 70-year-old supermodel, singer and actress sparked excitement as she returned to the catwalk with other pioneering Black supermodels including Pat Cleveland, 68, Beverly Johnson, 66, and Veronica Webb, 54.
Jones strutted the catwalk and smacked her buttocks as the DJ played her 1981 hit song “Pull Up to the Bumper”.
The Jamaican-born singer wore a gold bodysuit under a colorful metallic striped blazer and purple leather boots from Zendaya’s Tommy Hilfiger line.
Sitting front row was pop singer Janelle Monae who wore a metallic rainbow colored pantsuit from Zendaya’s line.
The 59 runway models included familiar faces such as Winnie Harlow (pictured) and Jourdan Dunn.
After Jones hit the runway, all of the models flooded the runway with Zendaya and Tommy as Sister Sledge’s “We Are Family” played in the background.
Zendaya dismissed criticism from people who say she exploited Jones.
“I feel like we are paying homage to these women who changed our legacy, and who allowed me and so many others to be here,” Zendaya told The New York Times before the show.
“This is a proud and happy celebration of female beauty in all its forms, something which is as important now as it ever was before,” she added.

Yess Grace!!??????????????
Bomb!!
Y’all remember the black lady who was killed when she rolled down her car window to give money to a homeless person? They arrested the husband & daughter. We called it.
Mama Grace DID THAT SHIT okay? She made my Saturday night. She better damn it DEW.
Grace Jones! I LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!
She scared me to damn DEATH trending Sat. night. I was like nooooooooo not Grace. Then I saw she was alive. VERY alive. EXTRA damn alive.
https://youtu.be/Tc1IphRx1pk
lol
Extra Damn Alive!
My cousin loved Grace Jones.
I ordered a zodiac tee from Zendaya’s collection with Tommy.
Her energy LAWD
Told yall Dub14 had already scared me to death the weekend BEFORE asking me who is Harry Belafonte. *snort* I was like is he DEAD????
Post from yesterday on it down below.
If you haven’t seen it, watch this:
https://youtu.be/_6Lq_xr8MIY
It’s kind of a behind the scenes/during the making of the album Hurricane. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I sure will!
“Jump in the line rock ur body on time….ok I believe u!” I love that man!!
Winnie Harlow looks awful
Per usual… Cant get with her???
Grandma Grace did that ish!! It would’ve been nice if Patra sang it live since she did the remake in the 90’s and also looks amazing! Either way, this was cool! They should have an ode to the OG runway walkers b/c they did it more for me than Winnie n’ them!
I don’t even understand how Winnie gets jobs. She’s just not a super model…same goes for all of the bishes who were given jobs as “super models” just because of their last name and/or their family’s wealth.
I hope to look like Grace when I turn 70…the lady’s bad af!!! Jamaican genes are amazing!
Please explain to me just how did Zendaya exploit Ms. Jones? Cuz, I don’t get it. Wew chile, I guess some people just comment just to comment. ??????????
Grace Jones real bomboclatt bad gal. Full of life 70 where.
Exactly!!! Cause the people they’re classifying as “Legend(s)” now a day…just ain’t it, sis!!
ME TOOO. Comes to find out she was trying to find someone to fit for a black history paper and was looking online at folks. Basically old black Hollywood that was instrumental in civil rights. She looked up from that laptop and was like mama who is Harry Belafonte. I semi- lost it.
*Mr. Belafonte was 92 on Friday.
Grace is EVERYTHING!!! She is stunning at 70! She makes black look so damn beautiful? I aspire to look this graceful at her age God willing??https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/84baac7cd25503124757fe16ac31113b67e523eb78eadd2d7ad96f8a2469d1a9.gif
Cause she is spotted… I believe if she did not have a skin condition, she would be somewhere posting duck pout pics on social media???
Grace is Gawd. She took what she had and turned it into a brand. Tons of personality.
70 looks GOOD on her BUT that hairstyle does NOT???
The legendary Ms Jones. Yes. Each time I see her I can’t help but think of that pastor brother of hers and his Loretta.
Grace is actually aging gracefully…she was one scarrry lookin lady byke in the day
I feel the same way. In today’s climate, talented people are being overshadowed by nontalented or less talented people because those types outnumber the ones who are actually talented. Real singers are being pushed to the side for autotune. Real models are being pushed to the side for last names and wealth…or in Winnie’s case, sympathy.
Ms Jones wouldn’t let anyone exploit her. She is a supermodel and she wore what they gave her. I love her strong spirit.?
LOL! It’s funny b/c my dad’s side is musically inclined, so there was ALWAYS someone spinning a record, rapping, or some ish going on over there. My auntie was (she still says “is” with her old ass) a rapper and she’d always tell me that “music recycles itself over and over”. I never understood as a kid, but when I would go out and buy a cassette tape or a CD, I’d ALAWAY looks to check what sampled was used (b/c it would sound familiar), then I would go purchase the original album by the artist!
Beetlejuice was one of my fave movies, and I loved how the ghost football players were dancing to “that song”, so I harassed every adult I knew until someone told me it was “Shake Senora” by Mr. Belafonte and the rest is history!! I played “Shake Senora” and danced on Friday to celebrate! He is still handsome too!!
Good job Zendaya! Round of applause.. Bring em out
He IS still handsome. Shake Senora one of my FAVES
An update is needed bc now its coming out that the same dude robbed a bank THREE times back in 1999-2000 and now done killed his wife.
I see old hillfiger tryna make us forget (that he didnt want black ppl wearing his designs) good job ppl are so forgiving
I freakin LOVE grace jones! Her music literally got me thru my freshman year in college whenever i was having a meltdown…lmao “Pull up to my bumber bayyybayyyy” that damn song will make anyone dance idc idc
Now I got “Pull up to the bumper” stuck in my head!… That was the jam tho!… Grace has always been full of grace and beauty…. with a lil bit of raunchiness!
PATRA!! YAAAAAAS! ???
YUP!!
No post on Tamron Hall and her high risk pregnancy Sandra?
Yes, I remember poor Loretta. I felt bad for her watching Preachers of LA. I hope she’s not still waiting around for that ring from Bishop Jones. ?
Zendaya can do NO wrong.
Zendaya is the standard for BLACK beauty, what a lovely young lady.
Nice. Tamron Hall is pregnant. Love her. So happy for her. I never knew she was even married. Her sister’s murder traumatized her so much and made her scared of relationships.
Still got it at 70
Patra…. damn girl you bringing back memories. logging into spotify right now.
I’m playing it in my office right now. I forgot about her, and Spice did a nice new version of Romantic Call
Zendaya looks amazing.
LOL preachers of LA
To a white man. May as well drop that tidbit bc its coming out soon as Sandra posts most likely. Im happy for her. Others not gonna be tho. And thats okay too
I missed the Wendy show… did anybody watch it?
LOVE LOVE LOVE PATRA! I don’t like Spice, never did and her being on LHH made it even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just hope she don’t do no post on MJ… they still tryna drag him thru the mud and I wish they would leave him TF alone and let him RIP dammit!… Smh
What no purple budging veins or cottage cheese on them thighs n folks say older women 2 stay in their lane. I see some 20 year old bodies that look like a road map. Dont get me started on their bikini bodies at the beach hurting my eyeballs. Grace u betta werk. I got a striped sundress just like that from rainbow. Been having it for years.
jess the mess was making a joke and called Winnie “matchy patchy” oh man i couldn’t stop laughing.
Yassss! I was honored to meet the legendary Grace Jones while I was vacationing in Ocho Rios Jamaica 2 yrs ago, she said she has a condo down there. Trust me folks she is as cool and down to earth as you would assume she’d be. My family and I shared a boat with her, I was smoking a blunt and sharing Appleton Rum with her she is definitely a class act! She said no pictures bcuz she didn’t have her “face on” so we respected her wishes. She jumped off the boat and swam in the water with my sisters boyfriend and others and everything but the hilarious part is after the boat ride was over Grace lil old freaky a$$ got my sister’s boyfriend’s daughter phone number trying to set up a date or some chit, not even gonna lie the girl was a petite big booty heifer with a small waist so Miss Jones had the Jones for her young a$$ for sure! I wonder if they ever linked up..LOL
Oh Tamron gonna be the focus before Mike. You cant pop up 32 weeks knocked up, married to a white man nobody knew she was married to, at 48 years old and not have SR shade the purity fukk outcha.
Dayum fool waiting on a 6ft2 mofo 2 marry u while he walks around with a white poodle.??
You better let them eat cake Mrs. Jones…..
I aint never forgot about Patra. She was so damn sexy. Shewwww.
Luke Perry died.
I pray to be able to see 70 and still be fabulous, healthy & alert. Grace is very blessed.
Lmaooo!… Yea she did a good job of hiding her shit!
???
Awww Damn!!!!
Wow
That’s what the hail I’m talking about. Ms. Jones ain’t going to let nooooobody exploit her. She didn’t take bs then and I know she’s not going to take it now.
Drag queen runway show.
Hey! I’m assuming u saw my comment to u on the other site right!!?
Yea I just heard…smh@52 dead from a massive stroke
Damn yo! Right around the 90210 reboot too huh?
So Sad.
Oh wow just googled her what a beautiful lady and she is absolutely glowing wishing her a healthy happy safe pregnancy and delivery, what a blessing
I heard that she was seeing Lawrence o donnell.
He wasn’t going to be in it.
He is a major character on Riverdale
Ion think she is married.
She is. She said that she and her husband are very happy.
The inspiration of my life Bishop Noel Jones lookalike sister.
I love Zendaya and she stays fly… I like the suits shown…not so much that frock Winnie had on.
Damn… RIP
Lord forgive me…Grace Jones looks JUST LIKE Eddie King, Jr in that first pic.
I’m going home to cry now.
RIP Luke Perry
First Rolo, then Jessica Tate and now Dylan. I grew up watching all these people.
Just saw. That is so sad man. RIP. Im floored. All kinds of teen memories for me that show was.
Which Dub14 is addicted to. Much like how I was to 90210. Im sad for his fam. He had 2 kids.
Okay….she slipped that one in.
Just read this.
Had to google Jessica Tate. Oh, Mona!
*Snickers*
Awww Damn!.. I didn’t know that Katherine Helmond (Jessica Tate) passed too!… How sad… May they all RIP!
Wow to Luke Perry…they just said he had an heart attack…..I thought he pulled thru that….
It was a massive stroke
Them drugs will come back to haunt you
I have to say….We look damn good for our( blacks) age…I see ya Grace!
+1.
90210 and Melrose Place were a huge chunk of my teen years.
oh yup, she started off with the health.. thyroid talk *yawn* then innuendos about her being a hot topic, all in all she stated “Marriage isn’t easy, and as long as i’m wearing my ring don’t ask me about my marriage”.. along with emphasizing that her name is Wendy HUNTER
Question… Do they apply two different makeup tones to Winnie’s face or they just leave one tone alone?
Off-Topic…..Diddy Regrets:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fcbd167dc8ec83d231ea1493c33fbf005f2353739152ee145c3d6d96a33b44c6.png
Why can’t folks age gracefully. Jeez lou-eez ?
And he always will regret it!… Smdh
TSR had clips. She still wearing her wedding rings
I’m dead
Same here. So Sad
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e475e746989741e5324fc7bfa561a64a292b5aff159ba6443aea6ad4793ce2b9.jpg
Ohh no this is so sad. He was on Riverdale. I’m sure the cast is devastated
Go head Grace… I see you girl https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/83d6232866689f283c8b7102d3037e5acb5ba73a28a11be5a814089ae373bdd1.gif
Well damn!!
I know he wasn’t going to be in it, it was just a coincidence to me that he dies and the show that made him famous is resurrected again around the same time.
Ms. Jones hotta dan scotch bonnet!
So Sad. Loved him on Riverdales and 90210. RIP
Yasssss!!!
? I was being serious.
I loved his role on OZ!!
She had Alzheimer’s
You betta strut Queen Grace! I still remember her in boomerang! Cracked me the effff UP!

Offtopic – RIP Luke Perry
Forever 902010
GURLLLLLLLL!!!!!
I was trying not to say a thang!!
My friend does that with her makeup, so I’d assume she does too.
I am too!! I like that show …
It’s on Hulu lately. Classic!
Most men regret the good one that got away sad part about Diddy was in his mind if everything else failed he thought she would be a fall back.. Now he has a life of regrets that can’t ever change..
Kang. You gotta say KANG! Lmao ?
Remember the name of the perfume. So glad she now has had the opportunity for the younger one to get to know her.
That shouldn’t even matter in this day and age. So many triflin people in this world, if you can find a decent one, you better stick with them. Short, tall, fat, skinny, bald, a little person…..whatever makes one happy
What you think about the new boomarang? They seem so young. I will def check it out.
Glad it ain’t just me. I felt bad just typing it.
Diddy doesn’t regret a thing. He would have never married that woman. He’s just talking ish and looking for sympathy being the narcissist that he is.
Wow…..may he rest in peace
You better work Grace. Black is beautiful and I have never seen any white woman looks as good as she does…at 70.
I remember Tommy didn’t want black people wearing his clothes. Did yal see the video of Chris Brown in the club tooting sugar. I tried not to believe it, but I think thats what he doing in the video
He is grieving…
I believe he really loved her as a friend, mother to his children, lover!
I believe he misses her. I believe they were in contact more than people know!
I think Cassie knew Kim was still Queen Bee!
I think you right cause he killing the “Single Dad” theme.
Love Grace’s boots she’s wearing, thats all I got!
Grace Jones did that.
It is. i slowed the video down for a better look.
Stron-Jay!! Ms. Jones….
Grace Jones is really 70?? Y’all lying in here. If she’s truly 70, I need to know her secret to her youthful appearance. She looks damn goodT up there!
I see Janelle not sticking her her B&W attire routine. Good!

He doesn’t regret anything at all, He lived his life the way he wanted, you’re right.
Wow, that is very unfortunate. I saw that he was very active with the Riverdale show.
R.I.P.
Gosh, to be so old and still have zero self awareness. She actually had the nerve to tell people to stay out her marriage? Her balls must hang awfully low.
Its clear as day too SMH
she is liveing her best life..and it show’s
It doesn’t matter when it comes to men because they are far more alike than they are different, regardless of race. Besides what black mens are even left that are on her level, J/K. She is so freaking gorgeous, smart and classy.
When on earth did he say that?
HEEEEEERES GRACE! Love her!!
Oh really???
Marcus I don’t have any panties onnnn!
How was Grace exploited? Someone help me understand
You’re not GAY!…. He’s GAY! LMAO
A story for the ages.
I didn’t want to believe the rumors, but I guess they’re facts.
??
“Strange´ it stinks so good”
She wasn’t getting exploited. People wouldn’t have anything to do if they didn’t find something to complain about.
Chile …??https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0f9cd4e435a391b6113f27c56d06179b341a1f41bfd3fef1952b24062eb61ffe.gif
BEAUTIFUL!
YES. SHE. DID.
No.
RIP Luke Perry.
Ha! Maybe I’ll watch tonight. LOL!
Get it Grace…?.I like her attitude ….self esteem thru the roof…
My girl!https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTzP2G_IhIlyb43z6UkWkyRkKy0t5RD2uy8FARuSVjfS8T19JQ-uQ
Grace looks wonderful.
Looking good Grace.
Soooo we just gone look over the fact Tommy racist as fcuk. And the Z girl half black ???
To me, the twins look so uncomfortable when he’s in “Single Dad” mode
Grace Jones is still fine!
Yeah some years back
I’d ALAWAY looks to check what sampled was used
~~~~
This is not so old school, but when I told my daughter Chris Brown sampled Shanice “I Love your Smile” in “Undecided” she looked at me funny.
Who cares
LOL! I just saw a pic of Shanice and Flex celebrating 20 years of marriage!
i loved her in the movie “Boomerang.” she was no joke. she still looks good and really hasn’t aged, regardless of her age.
ROFL!!!!
Grace looks Great!!!
Grace…Grace 70 yrs young still looking good and rocking 6 inches…Hell I can barely walk in 3 inches on a good day.
It sucks!
I always thought Grace was so ugly but now I see it was the makeup that was all wrong. She looks great for her age!
Tommy said his clothes weren’t made for us in the 90s when we made his streetwear popular…js
That has been found to be untrue.
She is the ORIGINAL diva, for real. Before anyone who dared to bring the outlandish to the stage, there was Grace. She’s an icon, for real.
Those clothes though are just so so. They look plain and unflattering.
Grace is legendary
WHO KEEPS BOOKING HER? Winnie Harlow is just a awful person with an awful personality. BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP. just look at her.. that demo… nevermind
Exploit Grace Jones? They can’t be serious, Grace is an icon and lives for the attention. She probably jumped at the chance to put on that outfit and dance down the runway looking good as Hell at 70 years old. She was in her element, if anyone benefited it was her. Kinda wish she would’ve rocked her old hairstyle though.
everybody. High top fade wont even be around without Grace Jones. Nor Rihanna’s rudeboy video. nor countless remakes of her photos. that is like 3 generations there
It looked bad, but I know you would have a good opinion.
I love her she was my idol and she still looks fabulous. The first time I saw her face on the cover of a magazine it rocked my world
She’s probably just insecure because of her skin and that’s how she covers it up.
@@deefromla:disqus Yessss Girl! I was a straight stan growing up in Detroit back in the day! Look at my Godmother in my mind at 61 mind you! These kids can’t can’t even chew gum and use the correct forms of “THERE”,”THEIR” and “THEY’RE” at the same time, let alone have some REAL talent *rolls eyes*: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kSZVtLFygs
LOL speaking of which remember the time Amber Rose call herself trying to pay homage to Grace with that gawd awful album copy photo shoot??
Sigh. Can’t believe folks still saying that. It’s been proven over and over not to be true.
I don’t care sis
#Legend
Damn, black doesn’t crack unless you’re doing it
Yasss!!!
Mama!!
Love me some Grace Jones and her music, just legendary!
Ugh just awful
Chile I’m half of her age and can not rock a heel to save my life lol
Gosh she looks good!
Keep scrolling? ?????
TOMMY TRYNA RE-SECURE HIS INVITATION TO THE COOKOUT…
Sad you believe that…shout out to Karl Kani
i DON’T CARE WHAT ANYONE HAS TO SAY GRACE STILL HAS IT AND ALWAYS WILL!
This was a phenomenal documentary!
Exactly
Thank YOU!!!.
He went on Oprah back in 2007 for the first time and dispelled the rumor. He and Oprah both said it wasn’t true. But, folks still want to continue to spout that tired lie.
Grace is on my naughty list she’s been working on her new album for over 5 years and still no new music . I don’t like this look on Grace much prefer her in Avant garde looks serving high fashion drama.
but I do, which is why I post.
Good for u
I scream for more.
My dad LOVED him some Grace Jones…she looks great

I was going to say her true demon entity is peeking out … .
