She held my hair actually. LOL
The boat trip was for a gay television show called Way Off Broadway and my company at the time was one of the sponsors. She was one of the regular entertainers on the show and that is how I came to know her. The show was hosted by a tranny and female impersonator who would also sing and sometimes do the show in drag.
I think she used to have a place down here or something. I don't remember her being married back then. Actually the eighties are kind of a dream like memory for me with bits a pieces missing here and there.
She used to perform at the local gay bars back then, mostly at a club that was called Shanghai. Grace Jones also used to perform down here a lot. I was a big Grace Jones fan and would go see at the Copa which is a gay bar that is still here. Grace Jones was know for spitting on everyone so I would usually watch here from afar, but it was always a great show.
I wonder what became of Grace Jones? I still listen to her music sometimes.
