That was sixteen-plus years ago, dude. Don't you think there have been changes since then?

I suppose, accept most of the gripes the ladies have shared recently seem to date back to the times they shared in the 80s. Not sure what you mean by changes. I don't picture many of the associates having any real contact with eachother since then. I'm also talking about issues between Jill, Cat, and the Melvoin sisters. And 16 years since a reunion is just another 16 years for grown adults to get over stuff, in my opinion.

Apppolonia was a big part of the Purple Rain experience. But, she was Vanity's replacement and no one is accusing her of being a great actress, singer or musician. Say what you want about Sheila, but she is an extremely talented artist that is respected in the industry beyond her association with Prince and has done things outside of 1984. This is some petty jealous nonsense and a shame that we are talking about this during a week where we should be celebrating Prince.



I mean, Sheila came into Prince's world with skin in the game, already. The woman had already been playing with GEORGE DUKE for crying out loud. She had already played with Con Funk Shun, played on Off The Wall...the girl is a beast, musically speaking, and I'm sure to done degree it's made her tough as a woman making her way through a male power-centric industry, especially when you're not relying on your cup size to garner acclaim. That said, while Sheila may be a very strong, no-nonsense presence, poor Patricia's gripes simply come off as rotten apples, bless her soul...

You are so desperate to be RELEVANT as the brilliant Linda Perry said. Prince refused to acknowledge you for 5 years before his death because of your lies. Your charity funds went where? Where are the music schools $$?? I was there helping you raise funds. I had your best interest at heart but later found out , the money went into your dirty pocket$. I was crestfallen. Prince scolded me! He knew better. You can’t continue to fool our Prince fans any longer. Because I AM here to tell you, it’s over. Time for the truth. My memoirs will reveal all that Prince revealed to me. Painful for me because I was your friend. I helped you raise $$$ My wealthy friends asked me : Where are the music schools?$!? None exist! FKN tragic because I believed you. Prince was so angry because of all your continuous lies. Your bio filled with lies. He sent you legal letters as you were slandering him. I have copies and will include them in my memoirs. You need to stop using Prince in death. You need to stop using Purple Rain ☔️ as a vehicle. YOU ARE NOT ON OUR CAST LIST. Prince outed you. Prince called you HeSHe. At first I thought this was not nice. But I listened to him. I listened to all of his complaints and even then , I did not want to be in between you both. It was painful for me because I loved you both. But once he was killed , you exposed your true self. It broke my heart. He was right all along. Why would you do a Purple Rain boat cruise tour $?$? in 2016? Why would you sell Prince logo tshirts $$$ ? Why did you tell The Revolution April 2016 that YOU knew how Prince died BUT you could not tell them!?! Please get over yourself: YOU ARE NOT PRINCE. You will never be. You can copy his attire , try your best, but you will NEVER be Prince 👑 So get over yourself sad self and face the truth. He did not want anything to do with you for 5 years. You erased all that history by being your desperate egotistical self . Egotistical empty sad desperate for money. Money will not get you to Heaven. Time to come out and tell the truth. God forgives🙏🏽

And again my favorite part and where I really stopped caring about the FB post was "he was murdered" then I'm like oh brother here we go again. Sorry but I am so sick of the females from this era, I'm done with them all, Shelia, Jill, Apollonia, Susanna also a little too, but all the fights come from them and this era, and I'm so tired of it. I'm tired of Prince loved me more etc...but guess what regardless of love and who he loved more, he married neither.



The part highlighted in what you said about being sick and done with Apollonia, Sheila, Jill Jones, Susannah Melvoin (and I would throw in Mayte) is exactly how I feel. These women don't give a crap about Prince or any of the fans. Their ultimate goal is to try to shine through Prince death, saying and doing anything to big themselves up to act like Prince loved them the most, and in the end making them more MONEY. That's all it comes down to in the end, no matter what they say. [Edited 4/17/20 10:46am]

The thing though and now I see Cat getting into the mix too, and I'm like Cat? Are u serious. But with Mayte she was married to him had one child and also had a miscarriage too, and covered him in his lies and stayed silent for a long time, she could have easily written a book in 2000. None of these women were married to him I get they were close and dated and probably slept with him and some claim they were going to be married to him but mayte was as was Manuela, who also by the way didn't write a book but for some reason has bonded with Mayte and no one from the early days. The trouble is all in that era, I mean when I have ever heard Andy Allo talk trash about Judith Hill or vice versa, I mean it's petty.



Everyone's fighting to be the Bottom B*sh. That's where we are now: at the Annual Battle of Would-Be Bottom B*shes, local chapter 1999. Speaking from a woman's point of view, I'm guessing P's lovemaking game must have been mind blowing, because in the wake of his departure from this earth all these women have been been behaving as if they've lost their respective minds ever since his passing. These girls are really acting out in unflattering ways trying to play the part of grieving widow and true soul mate, and this point it's pretty ridiculous. I can't even take any of it seriously because the bickering is simply absurd.

Have Wendy and Lisa stayed above the fray? It doesn't seem like they've said a ton or tried to stay in the Prince glow since he passed - at least after intial period right after his death when everyone was sharing memories and paying tribute.


[Edited 4/17/20 16:55pm]





Wendy and Lisa have stayed out. So has Shelia for that matter. Jill Jones has bursted out talking shit, but it's been awhile. Seems like a big part of this is some background politics about Shelia getting musical director gigs... which she's totally qualified for.



Lord, they're salty because she's gotten MD gigs? Sheila's a MUSICIAN, for Pete's sake. A musician with an impenetrable career stretching all the way back to the funk scene of the late 70s, and she later composed, recorded, performed, and toured with the man over years and years. Sheila is among the most qualified from his orbit to MD a tribute for him. If Sheila can MD an orchestra for taping at the White House (as she's done under the Obama Administration), I'm pretty sure her chops are still up for this. I mean what would Jill do? Emote into her microphone while Apples plays the tambourine? Lord, these women...

I've been reading with interest the "conversations" regarding my dear friends Sheila E. and LeRoy Bennett and their baking of Prince's favorite desert, lemon cake. It's little known that ALL of us were required, back in the day, to be able to make this confection for him. Page 13, paragraph four, subsection 2B of my employment agreement with PRN, from the late 80's, reads " Pursuant to this agreement, the party known as the Employee, shall be required to be familiar with the recipe for the confection known as lemon cake, and be able to make such cake at the request of the party known as the Employer
(i.e. Prince Rogers Nelson)."

Prince asked me only once to make the lemon cake for him.
By happenstance it was the week of Passover, either 1987 or 88, if I remember. So I decided it might be nice to have the cakes blessed by a rabbi for the occasion, after which I proudly presented Prince with my Lemon Kosher Cakes.
As it turns out, he liked them so much that for awhile, he actually considered converting to Judaism. As a result, somewhere in the infamous "vault" is a remake of his famous song "The Cross" (from Sign O' The Times) with somewhat altered lyrics and re-titled ..... "The Nosh".....




Eric is hilarious! lol I like him even more now...



Eric is now a genius for 2 reasons!!! smile Love!!!



Now this is the kind of anecdotal memory I can get behind lol lol lol

Only poor Patricia has others in the Prince family siding with her. Talent has nothing to do with what was alleged anway.


From my understanding it's been said that the conflict stems from Sheila assuming MD roles in Prince related tributes, and my point is that Sheila's more than qualified to take that on. Escovedo is a talented musician who had a multi-faceted role in Prince's life- as a friend, lover, and musical collaborator, and I think that counts for a lot more than being a one-off vanity project where curating grand-scale tribute performances are concerned. If Apples and Jill think they're better qualified to take on such a task, I'd sure love to see them try. I'm still waiting to hear Jill sing a song where she can keep her vocals on pitch for four minutes straight, but I digress...

That said, I don't know anything about whose side the family is on, have they come out publicly to say they're Team Apples? Or is this another of Patty Cakes' wild assertions with no receipts? Because honestly, Appolonia sounds nuttier than a can of Planters Peanuts right about now and I can't take anything she says seriously, especially not after the mean spirited gesture of publicly outing someone's alleged sexuality. That is trash behavior, and shows me the woman has not an iota of discernment, maturity, nor wisdom in that pretty little head of hers. I just hope for her sake (and sanity), Appolonia eventually finds closure with Prince's death. The way she's publicly lashing out makes her appear to be in an unhealthy mental space and she honestly sounds like she needs counseling, in my view.
