Dancer on Prince's lovesexy tour? What happened to her

Does anyone know what happened to the Sfrican-American dancer on the lovesexy tour that use to dance with prince?It was during the time Sheila E. was his drummer. She was in the "Sign of the Times" video? I forgot her name. I had also heard back in the day that Prince was suppose to be working on a record deal for her but I never heard about her again?

She was a success before working with Prince - I know she'd choregraphed Bowie's Glass Spider tour previously.

I like to think she's out there in some kick-ass, avant-garde dance troupe, somewhere...

The last I heard was that they MET around 1996 when He and Mayte were 2gether as a couple and she (reportedly) said 2 him something about their dynamic on stage along the lines of 'she's good - but she'll never have what we had 2gether' - he said: 'The LAST time we ever talked!'

I heard somewhere that she helped choreograph the 'Most Beautiful Girl' video. Not that there's much dancing in that one or anything.

I remember when she left Prince she was gonna do her own album. I remember seeing a snippet of a video, I remember her saying "Cat scratch!" but I don't think it ever actually got released. Shame, she coulda been another Neneh Cherry.

Cat released one CD single/7" single. "Cat Woman".

In early 1989,after the 'Lovesexy Tour',Cat left the Prince camp.According to her,Prince really wanted her to stay and he had even started producing a solo album for her.But Cat hired another producer (his name is Simon,and he's the same guy who produced Neneh Cherry) and began working on an album titled 'I Am Energy'.A single called "CatWoman" was released in late 1989,but it flopped.The album was never released.

She's in the same place as Jesse & Andre & everyone else Prince is done with. She's buried in the back of the studio.
