Gone to pot: Grace Jones takes to the stage with bizarre new show

Updated 13:49pm on 1 Sep 2008



She may have recently turned 60, but Grace Jones has displayed no sign of slowing down.

The uber-diva took to the stage for day two of the Electric Picnic Festival sporting a barrage of revealing outfits that would make even Madonna blush.

However, despite putting on an energetic show, the singer's performance left some doubt as to the state of her mental well-being.

Adopting a series of strange facial expression, Grace was also sporting some rather bizarre headgear.

Arriving in Stradbally in a silver limousine with tinted windows, Grace took the stage by storm,  shaking her fishnet-clad buttocks, which looked remarkably in shape for her age.

The singer later continued her strange antics, throwing a microphone worth thousands into the crowd after it failed mid set.

Perhaps she was trying to give audiences their money's worth as the singer reportedly commanded a surprising 65,000 euro  fee for the show at the Electric Arena in Ireland.

The striking model and singer released several acclaimed albums in the Eighties but has done little of note since.

Grace was able to find mainstream success in the UK though, scoring a number of Top 40 entries on the singles chart. To date, she has released 45 singles.

Her new album has now been scheduled for release in October.
