grace jones now4Yep, you’re seeing this right, his mom is Grace Jones! Can you believe that?!! Be honest, ILOSM fam’ did you really get this one right?

grace jones and sonI have to admit that this was a really tough guess, because although when you see them side by side you can see similar facial features, but separated it’s definitely hard to tell. The “Pull Up To My Bumper” singer had her son/model, Paulo Goude, with celebrity photographer and her ex-husband, Jean Paul Goude. In case Jean Paul’s name sounds familiar to you, it’s because he was the photographer behind all of the media frenzy surrounding Kim Kardashians butt naked photo spread late last year in Paper Magazine.

Grace Jones wrote in her new book, I’ll Never Write My Memoirs, that she absolutely hated the fact that her ex-husband condoned what Kim K. was doing and Grace said she questioned him about why he did it and here’s what she said happened: “I asked him why he was giving her [Kim Kardashian]– a basic commercial product – his ideas? This seemed to contradict his spirit of integrity, which he has protected for so long. Why was he repeating himself, just to give her a little flare of publicity, quickly absorbed by the next puff of self-promotion?” Grace said this about Goude’s response: “Well, he replied, ‘I got the feeling that if I didn’t do that photograph, she would have simply copied the idea anyway. I might as well copy myself.’ His ideas are are so powerful that repeating them decades later still causes a hell of a fuss, however temporary…He might have done it to wind me up a little as well. Which he did.”
