    I think that she looks beautiful because no one else really looks like her. She is a fashion-icon anyways because of her unique style. And I also love her music. She is very underrated in my opinion and she should be a lot more famous than she is. Apparently good music don´t always sell that well. But she is a legend in my book. And she will be a legend forever. :)

    Her brother ended up being a minister (Noel Jones). And she was in a relationship with Dolph Lundgren (Drago in Rocky IV). Her, Jerry Hall (former model and Mick Jagger's ex-wife), and two other models operated a very successful modeling agency in Europe. She's was so funny, darling and brought the confidence in the movie Boomerang (Eddie Murphy/Halle Berry/Robin Givens). But this is the first time I've seen her in an interview, or seen her perform, and I'm just blown away. I wish I'd had her on my radar years ago.
