An inspiring personality and an excellent performer, how rich is Grace Jones? As of 2015, Grace has a net worth of $7 million which quite obviously has been amassed from her career as a performing artist. Initially, her modeling career gave Grace financial success which she managed to add to from her singing and acting careers. The earnings from her hit movies like “Boomerang”, “Straight to Hell” and many others as well as her hit songs like “Roll Up The Bumper”, “I’ve Seen That Face Before” and others added extensively to her net worth making her a multi-millionaire as of now.

Born to a strictly religious family in Jamaica, Grace had quite a timid nature during her childhood. Her skinny frame made her distinct and while she was attending Onondaga Community College in New York as a seventeen year old, she used her distinctiveness to enter modeling. After moving to Paris in 1970 and gaining huge success as a model, Grace appeared on the cover of many reputable magazines, including “En Vogue”, “Elle” among others. As of 1974, Grace had already found her interest in music and signed to Islands Records to release her debut album “Portfolio” in 1977. She found fame as a singer with her album “Nightclubbing” which released in 1981, and went on to being certified platinum and gold in different countries like Australia and Germany.

As she was enjoying her successful career as a singer, Grace also took a step into acting and initiated her acting career in the movie called “Gordon’s War” in 1973. Later, she showed her prominence in acting as she starred in movies like “Siesta”, “Vamp”, “Conan the Destroyer” and many others. She has also acted in television series including “Stryx”, “Beast Master” and more. A head turner everywhere she goes, Grace became successful even as an actress, making her a complete performer. All these projects helped her make her pile of net worth bigger and bigger with time.

Talking about this diva’s personal life, Grace has apparently been married twice in her life but currently is officially single. A mother to a son with Jean-Pauil Goode, Grace then ‘married’ Chris Stanley(1989-91) – she disputes marriage – and Atila Altaunbay(1996-2002). She partnered Dolph Lundgren for four years, but has been in an on-off relationship with Sven-Ole Thorsen since 1990!

Grace has been credited as the inspiration to other famous artists of this generation such as Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Santigold and many others. Currently, this multi-millionaire diva lives a fabulous life with her son in New York, accommodated by her net worth that amounts $7 million at present. Moreover, given her trendsetting style and striking performing art, Grace has also been honored with a Q Idol Award.

Grace Jones Quotes

• I was always really determined to look the way I wanted to look, and I wanted to cut my hair. I wanted to look different because I was used to looking different. Because of my religious background, I’d always been encouraged to look different.
• [on the misconception of her characters in Conan the Destroyer (1984), and Vamp (1986)] I do get hurt, I do cry, I do have feelings. I think it is a nice surprise to see a vulnerable side to me in my music, I’m multifaceted, I think everybody is, I am developing my vulnerable side, and one day it will come out in film.
• [on preparing for the role of Katrina in Vamp (1986)] I read “Interview With a Vampire”, my character was based on that character in a sense, it wasn’t taken from the book, but I did read that book in order to get the feeling of putting human feelings into it, and I guess I started smoking cigarettes as a habit, just to see what a habit feels like, because I haven’t got any.
• [on her mothering] I have one formula that really works, and that is never use a negative word to him (her son), ever. I never said, “no”, “don’t”, “never” – I said, “If you have any more sweeties, all your teeth either are not going to grow, or fall out” or, “if you want to go in the swimming pool – you’ll drown”.
• [on sexuality, and categorizing one’s sexual preferences] Of course I find women attractive, I think that if I didn’t – I wouldn’t find myself attractive. I think one has to begin first within themselves – then go from there, and for me to say that I don’t find women attract would be saying that I don’t find myself attractive. It doesn’t make me anything, I think it is ridiculous trying to categorize people’s feelings or to say what one person prefers, there’s no comparison. You can’t just say one is better than the other, or one is worse than the other – do what you feel, when you feel like it, if you feel like it.
• [on her aggressive behavior] I think I am aggressive in a positive way, it protects me- it puts everyone on their guard-to be nice to me.
• [on her stage persona] When I perform on stage I become those male bullies, those dominators from my childhood. That’s probably why it’s so scary, because they scared me.
• [on how she became to be a singer] I never thought I was going to be a singer. That was an accident.
• [on her film career, or lack thereof] After the doing the first big film (Conan the Destroyer (1984)), I realized there was so much time, so much empty space — always, you know… waiting to be called. Thank God, I’ve got the music because in all that space, I was writing music.
• [on her gay following] The fact that I get in there and perform during this political time, and have a great time doing it helps. Gays are my best audience.
• [on drug use] Use, don’t abuse.
