Lisa Coleman's wardrobe I was watching earlier videos and couldn't help but notice how dowdy Lisa's wardrobe was back then - even by 80s standards, what was up with the old-lady suits and shoulder pads and big strings of pearls? She looks like she's going to work in a bank! Considering all the other bandmates had "stylish" outfits, except maybe Fink's scrubs, I wonder why she didn't go more for the "Revolutionary" look? | |

I love my girl, but I'm sure she was trying to hide her weight.
Didn't work. Love her anyway. | |

That'd be my guess too. She's a trim hottie nowadays, though! All orgnotes and emails requesting trades or how to acquire bootleggage will be ignored. - The ThreadKiller - | |

Just went with Lisa's nonchalant "whatever, I don't give a fuck" attitude that I LOVE. Just oozed coolness. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

That'd be my guess too. She's a trim hottie nowadays, though! I remember when I saw them live here in NYC for a Girl Bros. show, I was shocked at how skinny Lisa had gotten. I was so used to seeing her in those big clothes. | |

I never viewd her as a fat or obese woman back then...she just was a large framed woman... I am not African. Africa is in me, but I cannot return.
I am not taína. Taíno is in me, but there is no way back. I am not european. Europe lives in me, but I have no home there. I am new. History made me. My first language was spanglish. And I am | |

I think Lisa look more decent back in the 80s than now especially on Mountains video boy she looked pretty as she grinned at the camera and they show her blowing her hair. She was also pretty on Purple Rain too. I never thought of her as being fat or obese she was just healthy looking to me but keep in mind she wore heavy clothes during her years in the revolution. Now as I seen her recent years I was apalled how thin and frail she looks and I thought she was sick until I heard she is now a strict vegatarian. Still I think she needs a meal. Speaking of being more health conscious I wonder have she gave up smoking as well? [Edited 2/2/05 12:35pm] | |

She was one of the fucking COOLEST members Prince has EVER had in his band PERIOD! I agree. I always thought Lisa was pretty. And she was super cool. I never felt that way about Wendy, though. Didn't like it when she joined. I was into Prince from the get, so I was more than hip to how crucial P's line-ups were. And Lisa, from the time she joined, up untill Wendy came in, I dug her very much. The dynamics changed when Wendy joined. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz.

Lisa is totally cool. I can't say enough nice things about her. Wish she was still doing something for Prince, but maybe one day! The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018.

maybe prancing around in her undies wasn't really her thing, and since she was behind her keyboards nearly the whole time nobody felt the need to push it.
All I have to say is she is too  for words."a poor fool indeed is a man who adopts a manner of thinking for others" | |
