Vanity's Pre-Prince Modeling Photos?

I have tried looking for Vanity's modeling photos, such as the Pearl Drops ad and could not find it. I would love to know what else she modeled for before she met Prince? I know she modeled in Japan for awhile. Does anybody have any information on her 70's modeling days? I'm a big fan, and I miss her already!

Alot of people believe that she appears on the cover of Cameo's 1982 album Alligator Woman but I don't know if that's really her hmmm

I have seen that photo before (and there was another Cameo album she was on, I believe- or maybe it was another photo from the same Cameo album. I will try and dig it up.) I always thought that was her - it looks just like her, in my opinion. What makes you doubt that it is her?

I found it, and according to Wiki, that is her on both albums. I know not everything on Wiki is correct, but I do think it is her on both albums. What does everybody else think?

Shoot! I couldn't get the photo to post - can anybody help me out with that? I did a Bing search for Cameo's "She's so Strange" and found the album cover.

I have seen the Pearl Drops ad-it was years ago and I think it was in a bio of prince from the 80s. The thing is, we don't know how long Vanity modeled. There is a head shot of her in the other thread that lists her modeling agency on it. The problem is, there are so few bio details on her before she met Prince.

Just to say, that is Vanity on the Cameo album covers.

Tomi Jenkins and Larry Blackmon confirmed it on FB before.
