Meet Genevieve Jones, the 30-something 100 lbs. NYC transplant with her mind on her money and her money on her mind. Many fashion the trendy new "it" girl to be the Black answer to Paris Hilton. Born in Baton Rouge, LA to working-class parents, Jones always had champagne dreams with a beer budget. In the early 00's, she moved to New York, and suddenly became the mysterious girl at all the trendy high-fashion events. With a best friend like Zoe Kravitz, and a jewelery line under her belt (Genevieve-Jones.com) you might be hearing more from the lithe socialite... She's similar to Paris in that she's become known for really no reason in particular, but she's milking that fame into enterprises and fortune (hey, I'm not mad!). 
Some say that she's the modern-day Holly Golightly, and if you are a fan of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" then you know she fits the description perfectly. She was exposed by The Wall Street Journal when many questions about her was left unanswered. Is she really a socialite? How can she afford maids and car service? Who is she and where did she come from? Through the expose it was revealed that she had humble beginnings in a working-class family, and that she was indeed 31, and not the 27 she claimed previously when featured in Vogue Magazine & Nylon. Say what you will about the girl, but you can't say she's not FABULOUS-- and well-dressed. Want to know more about the mysterious socialite? You can GOOGLE her baby!
Big shouts to my BIG SIS for the tip!

This woman looks fabulous but trust me she is no Paris Hilton. Paris Hilton is who she is because she is filthy rich! Not trying to come up but was born up and is just out of control because she knows she can. Not hating, just saying.
ReplyDeleteAnd w/ that I agree. I mean I'd love to do the "come-up" but Paris... that's a stretch.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't compare her to Paris Hilton, Paris just parties a lot and acts like a bimbo. I hope this socialite is nothing like her.
ReplyDeleteHere's a whole dollar freak! Seriously, who on this fantastic earth has no life enough to even make this ill compared lame post... and FYfuckingI, Genevieve Jones was born in New York, the first born of her generation. Maybe if you knew her or any of her zillions of real fabulous friends you'd have a fucking clue. she lived outside of Baton Rouge and New Orleans for her childhood. And showed me one of my best American experiences in New Orleans, can't wait to go back! She's a Trinidadian to the core and has the sweetest loving family who raised a little genius and her mom can cook like no other! Get a life, live your own life and maybe you wouldn't have time to hate and stew over someone who obviously is just doing her thing. Your perception of her is so misconstrued and you obviously some lame sociopath with no fucking life!! Genevieve Jones/Paris Hilton is about the most ill comparison if there ever was one. Genevieve Jones is smart, interesting, uber cultivated, talented, a style icon fun and a fucking phenomenon who the elite fashion world adore. The haters can hate away but seriously, who the fuck cares and I know Genevieve doesn't and probably laughing at how pathetic people are obsessed, and not to mention making a lovely bankroll off your dumb obsession. AND you think Andre Leon Talley will stop ever being her friend because you wrote this? Seriously, why do you care? I'm sure it took a slight moment to upload, write your ignorant essay... Jealously is a bitch and and will eat your evil soul and make you ugly! Get your facts straight, if you don't know her and obviously you don't or you'd email her and get a fact straight. A word of advice, obsesses over something positive and use your blog to make a positive change like the presidental campaign, world hunger, the AIDS crisis, global warming or at least a real celeb like Madonna! Seriously, this saddens me and probably making Genevieve laugh her ass at how dumb you are. At least she does positive things like inspire, create, and has compassion for even losers like you and is doing good for less fortunate and is proactive in charity and parties like a rockstar, flawlessly and in style! Even your blog layout is tacky! and you're using paris hilton's name to get hits. You're evil and bad karma forever. Seriously, how do people who look at themselves in the mirror knowing what a hatemonger bad person they are?? Maybe therapy is too expensive for you but maybe if you had a friend to help you with your negativity and emotions.. just saying. Get a life and enjoy in a positive way, life is short and if karma is involved then you seriously have a dark existence to look forward to.
