If you're wondering what Grace Jones and Jane Seymour have been up to lately...



From The Daily Intelligencer:

Three former “Bond girls” recently helped Delta promote its new service between New York-JFK and London-Gatwick. Maud Adams, Grace Jones and Jane Seymour each appeared as one of the perennial femme fatales who succumb to the charms of the British super spy in the long-running series of adventure flicks ...

Grace Jones — perhaps you know her as May Day from A View to a Kill — was clad in a shimmering vintage Issey Miyake number replete with a hood and definitely could use that drink. "I actually have to fly back to London tomorrow at 8 a.m.," she said. "Not on Delta, though. I need me a sleeper bed, so I'm flying British Airways."

Awkward pause.

"Oh, whoops," she continued. "Was I not supposed to say that? Whatever, I don't give a f**k. These American airlines have to get their act together. Corporate cannibalism, this is. They took all my makeup on my way over here — lip gloss, powder, everything. Like I'm gonna blow s**t up with some eyeliner."

Lip glossed or not, how does she feel about Daniel Craig as the next Bond ... and what of the fact he reportedly had to be taught to drive stick shift for the role? She laughed. "It's funny they let that leak out. That's cute. Driving stick is very phallic. I hope he's picked it up by now."

... Jane Seymour — Live and Let Die's Solitaire — seemed to have other things on her mind. "I can drive stick," she mused. "Maybe I should be Bond."
