question about apollonia interview

If you've watched the Peaches Christ interview with Apollonia from July 2011, I have a question bout it. At the beginning of the interview, Peaches asks Apples, "were you and Prince ever in a relationship?" and Apples says something I make out to be, "Carmen Electra said ..size.. row of buttons, quarters? silver dollars?"

What was apples' response, because there were so many oohs and ahhs that I can't make out her answer for the life of me. ....what I guessed I was hearing was she was saying prince's D was the size of "a row of buttons"....? I can't tell what else it would be. I can't tell if she's making a joke about the size of prince's dick (as told to her by carmen) or what

if she is making a dig at Prince's D size i think that is pretty shitty... making fun of any person's sexual organ is low. We criticize other protegees for badmouthing Prince but this is one that would be really bad because she would be spreading rumors about his private and that after calling him "a best friend"... also, I find jokes like that to be low-class and mean, imo.

for the record I am a HUGE apple fan... even bought her 1988 album, think she's really funny and charming (and hot), and not a robot. Also, my bad if I completely heard it wrong and went on ranting for no reason

I have watched this video about 5 times and then gave up because of the loud audience. I cant really make out what she is saying. The only thing I can remember is her saying that they were best friends and only made out during the shooting of the movie. She also said he somehow got into her hotel room but didnt know how he got in there. He asked her if she thought PR would win an Oscar and she said yes. Thats all I got though.

The audience is annoying as hell.

As for the making out thing, I thought she implied that they kissed outside of the scenes too?

audience member: did you ever kiss Prince?

Apollonia: yeah

then someone said "haven't you watched Purple Rain...?" to the girl, and Apples was like "OH, in the movie!" like, she implied she kissed him outside of the movie too wink . They kissed at the '85 Grammys as well, but not lip

.

Really glad they're still gr8 friends. Always found Apollonia and Prince to look amazing together, a shame they weren't in a relationship but I have a feeling they had a fling (she and her husband were seperate and she had broken up with David Lee Roth), but yeah Apple and Prince looked HOT and like one of the Sonny & Cher, Ike & Tina titles. Always felt her softness was a nice contrast to his hard image back then... Vanity was more of a sister-image, like an evil female Prince lol

.

I can totally imagine the hotel room incident lol adds to the Prince mystique image

Maybe eye do, just not like eye did before pimp2

Exactly...Apples and P looked perfect together. Oh yeah, you're right! She did kinda imply that they kissed outside of Purple Rain. I wonder how that went.

She was so damn cute & cuddly back then. Don't get me wrong, she looks great now, but a different kind of great, if you know what i mean.

I agree, she's THE Prince Girl in my opinion. I dunno if she meant "kiss" as in cheek or full out kissing, but knowing Prince, I think it's the second one lol

Similar to that topic ^, I read an excerpt in a magazine in which she supposedly stated that when they were filming the love scenes in Purple Rain, "it was hard to stop" eek

Wasn't that before she purified herself though?? wink

I don't remember, haven't watched in a while, but I think that pic was taken during that sugary Take Me With You scene (my guilty favorite from the movie)

That's pretty much a PERFECT description. I honestly think it's the hair... it was so fluffy and soft and big, epitome of the 80s hair look. Add that to her shorter stature, very curvy figure, and she ended up giving off kind of a cuddly vibe. I was shocked seeing a pic of her promoting her album in 1988... her hair was straightened, and she looked VERY different. Looks even moreso today, and she somehow got even curvier. She's always been hot smile

.

Her homely and cute look worked perfectly with Prince's hardcore womanizer rock star look back then, looked like a match made in heaven. they looked like they would work as a couple, because she seems opinionated but not batshit crazy (like her predecessor lol). And, I may be the minority here, I find her more attractive than Vanity too (even though Vanity was sexy as hell), and the Apple 6 album (+Manic Monday+Take Me with You) is better than the Vanity 6 album imo. her '88 album goes hard.

.

every guy wants an Apollonia after watching Purple Rain lol

I wonder what the unedited sex scenes look like. You see a glimpse on the When Doves Cry video.

Yeah, that's what she said. In another interview years and years later, she claims they never filmed any explicit "in the act SEX" scenes, but sexual ones were filmed.

.

She also referred to P as "a wonderful gentleman" and he called her one of the sweetest people he's ever met eek I never expected something sappy to come out of his mouth

.

EDIT: another quote: "I will love Prince until the day I die." although she seems to harbor a lotta love for the little guy, she also was quick to point out he's a tyrant at times. Can anyone confirm if it's tru that she said Prince told her she wouldn't make it without him? Seems unlikely, considering he knew she came just for the movie + 1 album, and nothing else....

Supposedly the barn scene was never filmed, according to Apples...

But I would also love to see some of the sexual footage shown in WDC. A real disappointment to see just snippets sad

Did anyone else notice, in 84/85/86, they seemed very close, they were kissing at the Grammys, playing the role of a couple very well, having only nice things to say about each other, etc.. etc...

.

But any interview I see from Apple afterwards, circa 88, seem kind of negative...? Like she was either annoyed with him, or annoyed with her status solely being The Prince Girl. She kept trying to downplay him in interviews, spoke of his tyrannical side, said she was never part of his 'family', etc.

.

Nowadays, she seems more warmer about him, and the recent PR anniversary performance confirmed this, that they were close. Odd how she had never been to Paisley Park before though eek

.

BTW, has anyone figured out what Apollonia was saying in the interview?

I remember a late-80s interview where Apollonia revealed that Prince was sorta pissed when she decided to leave the Prince camp in 1985."He told me that I would never make it without him",Apollonia said eek
