Since you're not asking for just musical proteges ima go with Carmen Electra. He discovered her, gave her a showbiz name, and she became really famous. | |

I actually don't think any of them are, but the JJ & TLewis kinda mirrored what Prince was doing. . All of their sounds (and Janet's image and sound) was directly from the Minneapolis sound but in variations. Janet moreso, but she was also a HUGE fan of Prince & the Time anyway. Remember when Prince realized the had SOS and he wanted them to not give their sound out. | |

I don't see Sheena Easton as a protege though she has often catagorized as one. Sheena was a collaborator. She was already famous and established as an international pop singer prior to her first meeting with Prince. He definately influenced her look and sound afterwards but I still do not consider her to be a protege. Just my 2 cents worth... | |
