Too bad the "Boys" video doesn't include the spoken part of the song,when they go out to a nightclub looking for guys.They could have had alot of fun filming a scene for that...

"Hey Jojo...check out that guy with the...jeri curl"

"Uh uh...you mean the SCARY CURL....look at that stuff,drippin' all over his shirt!"



lol

some interesting trivia about the Mary Jane Girls....

***The girls opened for Rick James on his 1983 "Cold Blooded" tour.When the tour was over,Cheri (who sings lead on their hit "Jealousy") left the group.In 1984,she auditioned to become a member of Shalamar,replacing Jody Watley.Alas,she didn't get the gig.

***In late 1986,the girls went back into the studio with Rick James to record their third album.It was titled 'Conversation'.Songs included the title track and a remake of the old 60s hit "Walk Like A Man".Unfortunately,Rick went to war with Motown around this time and a "tug-of-war" situation occured.Rick was preparing to leave the label and wanted to take The Mary Jane Girls with him.For their part,Motown wanted to keep the girls and pair them up with super-hot producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.In the end,the group broke up and the 'Conversation' album was never released.

Also, Yvette 'Corvette' Marine who replaced 'Cheri' tried unsuccesfully to sue Paula Abdul claiming that it was her vocals and not Abdul's on much of the 'Forever Your Girl' album.
