Grace Jones not impressed by Miley, Rihanna, current pop stars

Singer Grace Jones says many of today's pop stars have "no long-term vision" and merely "dress up as though they are challenging the status quo."
In an excerpt from her forthcoming autobiography, "I'll Never Write My Memoirs", the 67-year-old "One Man Show" said she can never simply follow the trend and be somebody who she is not, reported Time Out.
"Trends come along and people say, 'Follow that trend'. There's a lot of that around at the moment: 'Be like Sasha Fierce. Be like Miley Cyrus. Be like Rihanna. Be like Lady Gaga. Be like Rita Ora and Sia. Be like Madonna.'

"I cannot be like them - except to the extent that they are already being like me," she said.
Writing about how she is different from singer Rihanna, Jones wrote, "I have been so copied by those people who have made fortunes that people assume I am that rich... Rihanna... she does the body-painting thing I did with Keith Haring, but where he painted directly on my body, she wears a painted bodysuit. That's the difference..."
Jones also said that current pop stars like Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj need to have a broader vision to succeed.
"The problem with the Dorises and the Nicki Minajes and Mileys is that they reach their goal very quickly. There is no long-term vision...

"There will always be a replacement coming along very soon - a newer version, a crazier version, a louder version. So if you haven't got a long-term plan, then you are merely a passing phase, the latest trend, yesterday's event.
