Why is it that Prince always go after the women that look like Vanity? Is he trying to fill some type of void? The latest picture of him and Mani was in a way, eerie, in a deja vu type of way. I thought I was looking at him and Vanity...What do you think?


What a ridiculous question


What's so ridiculous about it? It is the truth!

'cause it's not true, besides Mani & mayte name other women that he's gone out with that resemble/look like Vanity.

come on, I dare 'ya


Vanessa Marcil. Carmen Electra. There was another one, a model whose name I can't remember right now.

In Purple Rain, when Vanity dropped out, a look-alike, Apollonia, was hired.

I said that he wnet out with, he never went out with Apollonia. Carmen, doesn't look a thing like Vanity. Vaness, yes.
But what about Kim Bassinger? Susan Moonsie? Susannah Melvoin? Jill Jones? They don't look like/resemble Vanity.
My point is that yes, Prince does like women that have that Vanity look to them, but that doesn't mean that that's all he goes for in woman. Not everybody he's dated looks like that.

You are born with your ideal mate engraved in your mind on what you perfer. With him it is past that. It is not about love. That's why I said on other posts that I felt sorry for her. She doesn't even notice she looks like the others. The only why you can tell them apart is if you gave them numbers. Everyone attacked me for bringing it up before. Never could get to the root of that but it is definitely not healthy. Oh and Ms. Vanity is the first one you all know about. That began long before he was famous. And no she doesn't look like his sister. Wonder what Danille is doing these days? She stalked Prince for years. But she didn't want him. Go figure.

people didn't attack you, they just pointed out that they didn't belive a word you were saying.
In your previous posts you acted like you knew everything and everyone else was stupid.
You have said very outrageous and untrue things (I.E. Jill was only 13 in the "1999" video, alex haley was related to you, you wrote your first play at age 3), therefore your credibility is shot to hell.

I think you're taking the idea of "looks like" too literal. It's not that they all "look alike." But most of his women are of a certain type.

All of Prince's girlfriends/women have been singers, dancers, models, actresses, or strippers. These types of professions tend to attract a certain type of woman. Prince's women tend to end up looking similar to each other because they are all in similar professions.

Some of his girlfriends start out having their own style and then once they've been with Prince for a while, they started to dress and wear their makeup to fit in with Prince's ideal.

Not jealous just concerned that another person may be using the media to make things look a certain way for their financial gain without having his best interests at heart. You all are only looking at it from one side of it. What if the choice is not a conscious one?

Let's not forget Taja Seville and the one that's sueing him Charlene Friend. She was a interior decorator. With a very bad attitude problem.

All of you are totally wrong. Prince is not on an eternal quest for a Vanity look-a-like.

Prince loves himself above all else. Therefore, he has been dating himself. He subconsciously chooses women who remind him of himself. There have been a couple of exceptions, most notably Kim Basinger, but for the most part, the overwhelming majority of Prince's women have been petite brunettes with fair or mocha color skin, just like he is.

Sorry I can't tell you my name. But I will tell you that I am not crazy as you all think. And I think that I have to say something. And another thing What if the look alikes were written into his contract with WB's Because a women with darker skin would limit record sales. And they thought that they could not market him to a wider audience. And what if there are other reasons that ideal was settled on. In order for someone to be jealous they have to be insecure. I am not. But what if the ideal had something to do with no one would accept someone that looked like them with a couple of shades darker skin. Say that Prince is in love with a woman that looks exactly like him but her skin color is the same shade as say Jerome. Would you all still think she was so beautiful?

Probably, yeah. rolleyes What Prince's girlfriends/wives look like has nothing to do with record sales IMO.

I don't really get what you're saying. Dark skinned women can be very beautiful. David Bowie is married to a darker color woman. One of the best selling female artists today is brown skinned Ashanti.

If darker women limit record sales, why was Michael Jackson dancing with dark women in his videos? MJ was the biggest selling artist of the 80s. His co-star in the Thriller video is a brown skinned woman.

Didn't Prince date Nona Gaye? She is a beautiful dark skinned sista. You know everyone has a preference, only God knows who is your soul mate. And that person could be totally opposite of what type of man or woman you are usually attracted to. Who knows, wouldn't it be a trip if Prince were to hook up with a totally opposite type of woman one day...dark skin, dark hair, with a career other than entertainment...naw...lol:lol:

Fact Jody Whately couldn't say she was married to Andre the excuse was the same. Light skin was in during the 1980's. As far as the record company exects saw it I am not saying it was reality. If you looked a certain way you were R & B if not you could cross over. Susan was not with Prince got any pics of them together? You all are starting rumours.

Prince never dated Chili, he dated Lisa lopes.And yes, he did dated Nona Gaye. It was stated when "The Most Beautiful Girl" first came out that it was written for Nona.

And I wanna see where P dated Lisa...she was cute & all,but doesn't seem like P's type,she seemed kinda too rowdy & tomboyish for P. And why would he date someone who could burn down his house?
