Jayne County
Jayne County (born Wayne Rogers in 1947) is an American performer, musician and actress whose career has spanned several decades.

Pianist Jools Holland's first studio outing was with County on her single "Fuck Off". She is known for her outrageous stage antics and her songs "Are You Man Enough To Be A Woman", "Fuck Off", "Stuck On You," and "Night Time".
