As one who has always done her overbearing best to be a huge success, Media Diva Grace Jones decided to go for maximum splash when it came time to make the video for her new song, I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect for You). In the $250,000 video out this week, she gets her lanky legs waxed, dunks herself in a milk bath and even undergoes pseudo psychoanalysis with Guru Timothy Leary. Of course, Jones has always had a sizable appetite for fashion overstatement, so she did not shrink from slipping her 5-ft. 9-in. frame into a 30-ft. by 60- ft. dress. And she tops off the reckless excess with phantasmagoric headgear that looks like a co-creation by Medusa and Dr. Seuss. Proclaims Jones: "The audience sees me as a larger-than-life image they can worship -- like a hero." So there. And Liberace, babe, eat your heart out.
