She and Prince definitely had a stronger chemistry.  i have to disagree with u on that one. i've seen films that had vanity in them and i must say, apollonia "saved" purple rain (acting-ability wise) vanity's acting skills would've been dull. according to me anyway. I am with you on this one. Action Jackson or the Last Dragon prove that she did us all a favor. I doubt Purple Rain would have been as big with Vanity in it and this site might not exist. Granted both are eye candy and Appolonia will NEVER see an oscar either. But Apples (as with many others on here) welcomed me into manhood  | |

Also,I heard that Vanity was sleeping with the director,Al Magnoli  Perhaps Prince found out about this and fired her? Vanity got around from all the 'reports' wow. thank goodness she found Jesus. | |

I rest my case 
Vanity,on the other hand,was in numerous films.She even starred in a Lifetime TV movie in 1990 ("Memories Of Murder").She was getting numerous movie offers throughout the 80s.No,I'm not saying that was the next Elizabeth Taylor (lol),but she's proven to be a decent actress.The same cannot be said of Apollonia. | |
