Grace Slick profile. CBS (aired: 08/03/09).

[@scotnick59]

Personally, I find her blunt honesty extremely refreshing.

[@sharonjensen3016]

I do too. I turned 50 recently and I believe with age comes confidence, even if everything else "falls apart."

[@haintedhouse2990]

as do I. how many famous women would slip their fake tooth out while being interviewed on camera....

[@bill2066]

Sorry....but I do. Why people think you can let it all Go at 50+ is beyond me. Personally, I dont accept that and never Wiill. I have a feeling you are one of :those": We should always respect our bodies, because I believe Our Bodies are temples Of the Holy Spirit..not temples of flap. But That is my opinion of myself...

Grace has always been smart and sometimes funny, but her brutal honesty turns me off. She always seemed to be an unpleasant person and I don't understand people like that. I will say, though, that the Airplane made a lot of good music with Signe, Marty and Grace.

[@mitchgawlik1175]

@@MegaBait1616 Here's my "snowflake" response...Fuck you. The truth is fine and there should be more of it. What is not needed is the brutality to get a point across. It seemed that Grace Slick never felt the need to temper her remarks and now that she's a geezer it appears she feels any and everything is fair game for her barbs.

[@RyanInLA]

@@mitchgawlik1175 I agree with everything you said. But I also agree with everything she is saying. So what use is there for old people other than their criticism and barbs? Suppose those barbs are the greatest things she has to offer. And the primitive-naive music they wrote in the 1960's was only that...?

[@mitchgawlik1175]

@@RyanInLA I appreciate your comments. I may not have made it clear that I've always been a Grace Slick supporter, though I wish Signe had stuck with the band for another record or two, but then we may not have gotten White Rabbit, Somebody To Love, Volunteers, Milk Train and so many others. I've just never subscribed to the notion that an aged person needs no filter and because of their age and experience anything goes.

[@lisag18]

.... I was 19 years old in 1966 when I and two other friends of mine ( Bill Ande, lead guitar, Gibson and vocals and Jim Toliver, Bass guitar, Fender and vocals, and me Bill Lara, double bass 26 inch Rogers drums, and vocals landed in San Francisco as Rock n' Roll musicians from Miami Florida in a hard blues Rock n' Roll band called " Sensorytask" in 1966 at a new Rock venue called the ARK in Sausalito. I fell in love with Grace Slick right then and there and haven't stopped loving that "dream woman" since ! Today I'm 73 years old, retired from the world at large and still deeply in love with Grace Slick ....... and always will be !!! I LOVE YOU GRACE and will take that love for you to my grave with me when that moment of transition comes to me. Peace and Love to you Grace and 'Thank You' for all your music and lyrics, Se'Lah ! P.S. I Remember Martha and 2400 Fulton and Willard Streets. Much Love Grace !!!

I appreciated her wit and intellect but all I saw at 41 was a much older looking Grace. Now 10 yrs later at 51 I'm looking at this 70 yr old going wow, look at how clear, young, and tight looking her face is, and thinking: If she was slender here with a wig on she cough pass for a 45 yr old cuz she looks great!

I just love, love, love her. In every use of that word. She defies categorization and is the one 60s icon that doesn't do nostalgia at all. She lives in the present. Absolutely timeless. Tries her best to tell her truth and admits her and her generation's successes as well as faults. Takes a bunch of mean shots and outright lies and shrugs it all off. And still after all is said and done, has that glint of fire in her eyes. If I get to 70 and have an ounce of that I'll be good.

[@harolddburke4726]

Well when I was 15 in 1970 I thought she was a very beautiful woman. Her voice and other talents made the the Jefferson Airplane/Starship complete. They were and still are one of my favorite bands. Yes I find myself saying "They just don't make em' like they used to"
