I always get Vanity, Sheila E, and Apollonia confused. They do all look kinda similar.

Prince obviously liked that look back then...but moved on to Sheena Easton. :eyebrow:

I saw her once at Newpark Mall. I didn't acknowledge her; I just had that feeling she didn't want to be disturbed. Most wouldn't know who she was 'cause she looks really different.

M.C. Hammer used to live around the corner from Ohlone College. You couldn't miss his house because it had 'Hammer' right across the front gate.
Not making this up but his house was behind my house and he invited me and my family for one of his video shoots around 1992 or 1993 but I did not go. The house is still there but have no idea who lives in it.

I saw him at Chillis at Fremont a long time ago and he was sitting in the bar.

Nikki Sixx banged Vanity and I think they also did drugs together.

My friend use to own one of the homes on the street before making a right up the hill where his house was located at the end of the cul de sac. At the time there were quite a few empty lots looking down into the valley. I haven't driven up Mission in a long time.

Not to turn this into a babes thread, but Prince also dated Italian singer Sabrina (Salerno) back in 1987 (check out her not so safe for work music video "Boys"), and German VJ Kristiane Backer (MTV-Europe) in 1986. Here's Sabrina:

Susan Moonsie was also in Apollonia 6 so 4/6 of that too.

Not sure if it was the same guy but back in 1993 somebody had a party where a bunch of people trashed his house because he wanted to get revenge on his parents.
