Good question, I pick D&P, but the twins are hot too (I think they get put down to much here).

nod I was just watching the D&P video and I was thinking the same thing. Diamond looked just like Cindy C and they were both obviously classically trained dancers that could jam too. Boy I miss them, but like so many of Prince's women, Pearl is a born again Christian. I wonder how they look now? Here's Pearl page on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/w...ia_LaMorte It says that Prince was looking for identical twins back then. Well, I guess his fetish is now satisfied. rolleyes hmm
Look at what I found on Diamond: http://www.realpagessites...page3.html

The Twinz all the way. I don't know, they just seem to fit better (maybe because it's a smaller band). Diamond & Pearl just seemed like overkill when you already had many other larger-than-life personalities in the band at the time (The Gameboyz, Michael B, Rosie Gaines and not to mention a 6 piece horn section on stage)

Here is Pearl's official website: http://www.robialamorte.com/

Couldn't find an official webpage for Diamond.

I think Diamond and Pearl were great for Prince when they were them. And I think the Twins give something to Prince now that he needs. You know, people come into our lives at times when we need them, for whatever reason. So as long as Prince feels he needs them there, they will be there.

clapping I so agree with you. I am really scratching my head reading this thread. It reminds me of all those "the Revolution was his best band" threads.

Just because they didn't perform classical moves in the videos with Prince, a classically well-trained dancer is very obvious, even when doing more modern or hip-hop dancing. All I'm saying is that it was obvious to me that they were very trained, controlled and precise in their movement (I'm a former dancer so I can appreciate that skill).

I'm not saying the twins aren't trained but the way they dance is sooooo spastic and imprecise that it makes me nervous just to watch them. I don't love them or hate them but to me they are an annoying distraction when dancing next Prince cuz their movement is so jarring and I've seen them live and up close 6 times in Vegas. However, in the videos with D&P they were smoother and blended more with what Prince was doing at the time. They didn't take too much attention away from him but then I never saw them live and it could be vastly different.

Also, the fact that Diamond is choreagraphing shows on Broadway indicates that she was classically trained and Pearl also speaks of her training on her site. Just making a point. . .

I know that "Diamond" did somethings with Michael Jackson and somebody PLEASE clear this up for me. There is a woman in Michael's "Blood on the Dancefloor" video that looks alot like Diamond. She's wearing a green and black striped dress and has a red flower in her hair. (Which tour was she with MJ? Dangerous?)



And D&P win for me. I could care less about the Twinz.
I love a Man who:
Wears More Make Up Than Me.
Wears Four Inch Stilleto Boots.

Who Changes His Name Back From An Unpronouncable Symbol.
