Robia La Morte ( I forget which one she was, Diamond or Pearl) has become a preacher and I think a little nutty, I looked at her website once and she had a video talking about speaking in tongues and how it's a gift from God, sooooo....... I would love to see Laurie Werner or Elle, I always thought she was the most gorgeous thing I'd ever seen. Simply Stunning. Anyway, that's all I know.

Co-sign! Always thought she was the finest/prettiest of the two.

I met Lori and Robia back in the promo days in NYC for the Diamonds and Pearls CD. Nice ladies. Here's a cool video of what Robia is doing now:

That's a really cool link and it's great to see what she's up to now. I guess I never knew Diamond & Pearl/Lori & Robia really weren't twins! (It never crossed my mind that perhaps they weren't.) And, as a side note, it is really interesting to see how religious so many of Prince's associates have become. From the Lovesexy days, I was glad to hear Prince sing that "God is love," and I've always believed that - being more spiritual than, I guess, Christian. Now you have Prince being JW, and most of his former friends (Sheila E., Denise Mathews, etc.) speaking about repentence and how bad their lives were "back then" with addictions, misfortune, ill health, etc. They are outspoken about their religious beliefs and using their former fame as a springboard to preach.

Martika is around on Facebook.. she tours occasionally in different parts, but I think it's fairly sporadic.
