At Deputy Prime Minister's Question Time we had a rematch of Russell Harty's TV encounter with Grace Jones. Deputy PM Oliver 'Olive' Dowden, wet as a labrador's nose, flashed his eyes and flapped his elbows with ooh-la-la observations. Meanwhile, the role of the violent, not entirely cogent Grace Jones was sustained by Angela Rayner, property speculator, object of interest to the Manchester constabulary and occasional deputy leader of the Labour party.

Swimmers at London's historic Hampstead ponds today weighed in on the controversy over transgender swimmers' access to the female-only waters, with mixed results. The row was the sole topic of discussion at the north London bathing mecca today, after a women's rights group condemned managers for failing to recognize their reservations about the use of the transgender pool. The Women's Rights Network (WRN) has accused Kenwood Ladies Pond Association (KLPA) of being "high-handed and undemocratic" by denying its attempt to prohibit trans women from entering the Hampstead Heath facility. However, committee heads claim that any such move would be 'unlawful,' after receiving court advice on the matter, but the local WRN branch claims that it has declined to provide the information to members.

Grace Jones, the handsome model son of the 1970s, was known for her one-of-a-kind, out-there personality, and distinctive appearance.

When she appeared in several pieces of Jones' art, Goude directed Jones' music videos and helped define her public image. In 1979, they welcomed their son, but it soon fell away in the 1980s.

Lizzo was the pretty girl on the Renaissance tour.

The song's lyrics paid homage to many well-known female artists, including Lauryn Hill, Grace Jones, Betty Davis, and Rosetta Tharpe.

"I was worrying about baby me, listening to Happi Face by destiny's child, and screaming myself to sleep because of bullies," Lizzo wrote. "I was excited about Beyoncé's leap into the room where Tina Turner was waiting to meet her for the first time." I'm trying to figure out what we all mean to people and how cycled it is. We are all infinitely connected and maximally connected. "It's an honor," she continued, thanking Beyoncé for her recognition.

Naturally, Stephen Jones OBE, the actor's milliner, was at Royal Ascot last week, spotting his creations of every size, shape, and color on scores of heads. Nonetheless, one's absence was acute. It was the first Royal Ascot without Her Majesty the Queen,' Stephen, 66, says. "But she was in the millinery."

The Soho district in London, which had once brimming with bars and late-night music venues, is on the verge of becoming 'just another Shoreditch,' as it fights a burgeoning tide of Nimbyism from a'small minority' of wealthy citizens. Few would celebrate the return of the 1960s underworld and the reign of the legendary Kray Twins (who ruled The Hide-A-Way club on Gerrard Street) - but for the majority of locals, there is an undeniable yearning for the yesteryear's charm. It comes as yet another historic venue, Trisha's, has been forced to shut down this week after a millionaire neighbor's screams over noise and alleged 'drug use'. George Hudson, who runs and lives above Soho's Piano Bar, has expressed fear that the neighborhood will be 'another Shoreditch.' According to him, there is a "significant minority" of people who are refusing to open new night time venues, particularly those who moved in during Covid.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Two questions: why doesn't Esme Young have a damehood yet, and how does tailor Patrick Grant keep up with her?

A slew of bizarre interview exchanges have evolved over the years, from Tom Cruise accusing a reporter of "crossing the line" and having "poor manners" to Grace Jones physically attacking a talk show host. Now, MailOnline examines ten of the most memorable and uncomfortable interview conversations ever.

Grace Jones posed in a high-cut white leotard and black heels as she posed with both hands on her hips for a sexy Wolford campaign. The 74-year-old supermodel, who is the current star of the luxury lingerie brand, bared a lot of skin for the shot, which earned a lot of praise from her followers on social media. Many people admitted to initially thinking the pictures were 'throwbacks' because she looks so young on Wolford's Instagram account. 'Grace Jones chuckles at you because it's a shoot for Wolford's Spring 2023 campaign...and one Twitter user marvelled at her 74 years old.' Another joking about Grace Jones is that she is both suspicious and desperate, and I'm sure she is some kind of immortal being.'

Any warrior queen is complete without one, from Queen Elizabeth I, who chose silver for her legendary address about having "the heart and stomach of a king" to Wonder Woman in blue and gold.

'Do women not spend years of their lives grooming themselves in order that men find them appealing?Why should the opposite not apply?'

This is the first of five essays from MTV News this week to honor our 2022 Albums of the Year. Beyoncé's 2022 was the first time there was even a single music video. The Houston native didn't have to lift a manicured finger to ensure the success of her seventh album Renaissance thanks to her dedicated BeyHive fan base, who hosted viral competitions and parties to celebrate Queen Bey's latest work. The evidence was in its uniqueness, with Beyoncé's letter allowing her to "be free and adventurous in a period when no one else was moving."

I was 19 and a fashion-mad university undergraduate at the time when the Fendi Baguette bag was born. This meant I was old enough to remember the importance of the world's first 'It bag'. ... .. And I'm old enough to know that I will never be able to afford one.
