61-year-old Grace Jones mirrored Lady GaGa’s pants-free look during her performance last week in New York City. Her ‘Hurricane’ show epitomized the flamboyant singer’s style with wild costumes and fabulous headpieces.
She rocked a hot zebra-striped catsuit with a white-haired feather-inspired headpiece, danced with a half-mannequin and more than once the 60s icon bared her backside for the crowd at the Hammerstein Ballroom. Jones wore a colorful African-inspired beaded and banded mini dress sans briefs and then a fierce, backless fiery red gown.
