Question about Pruple Rain

In the movie "Purple Rain" I notice Prince every now and then corresponds with a young blonde woman. (The one that yelled at Appolonia in the beginning of the film for spilling the drinks and gave P Wendy and Lisa's music tape.)
What is the purpose of her character? Does she like hang around because she's got a crush on Prince or what?

You do know that the blonde lady you're speaking of is Jill Jones? She goes on to be his love interest in the beginning of Graffiti Bridge.

I dunno what her character is supposed to "mean", but she does set up the fact that women are drawn to The Kid before Apollonia shows up.

Yes, Jill Jones, one of Prince's proteges. I think her part was supposed to be bigger but got cut down. Yes, I think she is supposed to have a crush on Prince in the film but he never even notices.

Yes, that's Jill Jones, and yes originally her character was going to have a
bit of a bigger subplot about her having a crush om The Kid too.

Also, she originally had a song to sing in the movie too, but it was cut out.
(I think it was cut before filming, but I don't know for sure).

Okay, I feel so silly. I never noticed! She was the one in the black lingerie right--in "1999". And I haven't seen "Grafitti Bridge" since I was 12. LOL. I remember "GB" because I had drawn a bunch of sketches of P back then. I wish I could have seen her FULL part in "PR"

(Was she the one that handed P his guitar in the "Raspberry Beret" video?)

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
