Mary Jane Girls (Quick Question)

Not too long ago, I snagged a picture from this site that seemingly shows a woman (2nd from the left) who was once considered for a spot in MJG before being replaced by Maxi:



Would anyone happen to know her name? She went on to be apart of another 80's all-girl group who's name slips me also.

Shit! Yeah I forgot, but it's in Rick James' memoirs: Confessions Of a Super Freak.

I believe it starts with a T. For some reason, Tyka keeps coming to mind -- but I know it's the name of Prince's sister.

I saw this on the Rick James website and she was IDed I just can't remember, because it was a long time ago. Can't look it up now, because Rick's website is offline. Vainandy might know.

That's Lisa Sarna. She was one of Rick's backing vocalist and a member of his first girl group concept the colored girls. According to his book, the colered girls is the concept that Rick claims he showed to one of Prince's managers and then the next thing he knew, vanity 6 came out. There were three members of the colored girls. The only pic I could find shows two. Lisa and JoJo.

Thanks therat, but I don't believe that's the woman in the pic.

Whoever it is, they have their own personal website I remember visiting, and were apart of some group that had a name similar in style to something like The Centerfolds.
