I am afraid personal appreciation of an individual does not replace evidence and corroborate Abaloney's claims. That said, please buy her book. I'm sure she won't mind cashing in.

I will buy her book and i have no issue's regarding her getting my coins. If prince gave her his blessings I'm for it.

And how is it we know that Prince gave her his blessings to write a book? ... Because she said so?

Does anyone notice that Prince never dished on the personal lives and bad behavior (drugs etc) of his peers of equal status even when he was an up and comer and even when his career was lagging (second half of the nineties). When did P give us tales of debauchery, self-destruction, or bad attitudes from the likes of Madonna, Rick James, The Stones, Kanye, Michael Jackson, Mariah, Chaka {only now, we are learning she had a fentanyl problem}, Quincy Jones, Stevie NIcks, Amy Winehouse, Beyonce, Jay-Z, etc). You know those folks were not pure as the driven snow and he would have witnessed some episodes. . He threw some shade about music and was competitive but kept it that way. Maybe a passing referecne to cocaine use (probably Morris day's) during OldFriend4Sale is all I can think of. But really the tales this man could have told.

Agreed. If there’s one thing we know about the man it’s that he wasn’t obsessed with gossip and spilling other peoples business. Like the Larry King interview where he asked Prince If he was interested in Michael Jordan’s private life and Prince said nope, all he was interested in is Jordan getting the ball in the basket.

.

Prince did not like gossip. That is a part of being famous that I could never handle. Prince did it very well.

I don't understand the shade being thrown at Apples. She never did anything against Prince's wishes, she never hurt him. Why would she lie about emails from Prince? I'm sure he emailed her many times. Some of you may not like her, but I think she is a genuine person, and was always kind to Prince.

I'm confused why this is seguing to a discussion about if she's lying about Prince emailing her (I have no reason to think she's lying about that) or about her "right" to write her memoir (she can do that whether or not Prince "blessed" the idea); I thought the impetus for this thread was her implication that she had inside knowledge about his death that she would reveal in her book

I have no hate against Apples. I just don't believe her. She is showing herself just like the other associates are doing. She has the answers, but again we'll have to wait til the book? If she has the answers she needs to get ahold of the police.

Let's start seeing some proof from these associates.

is she still in the sphere tho? i never heard anything about them having a close relationship in his last years of life. I get she went to PP in 2014, and sounds like they exchanged a few emails, but he did that and more with many people who were not all that close to him. I just have a hard time picturing that she was in a small, core group of people he confided his very personal business to (if he did that with anyone).

If she's one who never laid with him (not my first wording) and hasn't been employed by him since PR time and is still in the sphere just because she chose to be AND she actually has a lot to say involving him, I'm kind interested cause this just might be juicy.

Not saying you did, Penny. I don't personally know Apples, but I have never read anything negative about her with regards to Prince. I understand what you are saying -- putting tweets out about "you know things".......well, that's getting a bit old now.

.

I agree.....show them receipts!

"Heads will fall"......mmmm this has gotten me intrigued to see what she has to say. I have always had a soft spot for Apollonia since Purple Rain and she does strike me as being very sincere. When I here the song, This Could B Us, it makes me think of her since supposedly he wrote it about her. But if she has something to say, then come on and tell us already!

Did she mean to say "Heads will Roll"? Which means, to be punished for something bad.

Just watched this clip of Apples going through LAX. I knew she was short (5'3"), but I hadn't realized how tiny she was!! Not saying that is a bad thing, because I'm only 5'2", myself.

Yep, she is tiny, thanks for sharing! She was a trooper answering all those questions, even though she seemed like she was trying to keep a low profile, lol and was gracious in signing a couple of autographs. Regardless of how people feel about her personally, you cannot deny she will be forever a part of Prince's history because of the movie. As far as the "heads will fall" comment, I am guessing she may have some info that may surprise us, but don't know if that is good or bad, however I just don't see her saying anything bad about P because she has always been gracious when speaking about him. I think it was so cool that she went to PP back in 2014 and they had a chance to catch up and sounds like reminisce a bit.

Amazing actress in the Purple Rain movie

No she really wasn't. Maybe she was amazing as a C class actress, but not an A class actress. She doesn't even compare.

My opinion. To each their own

She is petite, but I guess I never realized it before because in PR she didn't look that tiny. I wonder if Prince had a thing for petite women? Paula Abdul is petite also.

.

I thought it was nice that she signed an autograph too. I agree; she doesn't seem the type that would ever speak an unkind word about Prince. Now, she has us all curious!

Dang, Penny, I kinda don't believe her either. I want to give her benefit of doubt that she's finally speaking her mind after so long but for real.... How close were they? People keep talking about 2014 but was there any interaction between them from then on until he died years later? Im not saying she's lying but grandstanding for maximum effect on book sales maybe? I don't know. I just don't feel inclined to give her any more leeway than the other ladies.

They all say, heads will roll, these people will pay, I know what happened and things like that. BUT, they never go any further then that. They know so much but the family doesn't even know? Doesn't make sense.

We might not have known him personally, but we've all done our research enough to know, that some of these dates from these associates are way off. If they want to write a book, then write it, but stop making these off the wall comments. They all want to make $$ off of us fans, then start by being truthful and spit it out.

Prince did send out 30 emails of what he wanted done to various people before he transitioned. So I believe she is NOT lying about having emails from my forever musical idol. Prince also entertained her(her only out of ALL his proteges) at Paisley Park and told her his plans for her included,specifically in his mural in the Purple Rain room at Paisley Park. She said that before Prince transitioned. So I believe her. She's also been the MOST respectful and loyal(besides dare I say Kirk & Kiran)

Apples was also one of the first to say that Prince was ill.

Her comment of "Heads will roll" sounds more like a surprising truth of something that he might have been going through vs. knowledge of a criminal act on the part of someone close to him, leading to his death. But really who knows?

I'm not saying Apollonia tells the truth because she lost me with her widow statement after Prince died, but what I find hypocritical here, is that some of you on this thread were taking Mayte's book as gospel truth and Apollonia is a liar?

wait: where did she talk about Prince emailing her his post-death plans (one of "30 emails")? In her facebook post at the beginning of this thread, she says he emailed her in support of her memoir. She doesn't say anything about other topics. Where are you getting that info from?

-

Obviously she'd be represented in any Purple Rain movie display or what not. I'm not sure why that would indicate that they had a deep relationship in the months prior to his death.

In a reply to her FB post she said there are several people Prince had warned her about and had "banished" from his life years before his passing.She also posted that Prince told her to stop telling her stories and that they were "priceless" and to save them for her book.Her posts are certainly intriguing.
