Apollonia: Prince Tapped My Phone & Hired Private Investigator During 'Purple Rain' Filming (Part 5)

--------
-In this clip, Apollonia spoke about going from being a hobby singer as an actor to performing “Sex Shooter,” a song written by Prince in “Purple Rain.” She explained that she felt honored and still can’t believe that she got the opportunity. Apollonia then revealed that a lot of the scenes in “Purple Rain” were improvised, including Prince hitting Morris Day with his motorcycle, which she said made her laugh. When asked about dating Prince, Apollonia said that he never was romantically interested, and she felt that he was putting her on a pedestal. Apollonia then revealed that Prince had her phones tapped and had her followed to make sure she wasn’t partying or hanging out with bad people.

Mondernaire by Dez Dickerson is one of the most underrated 80s songs of all time. It's in the film but not the soundtrack

Well, happy Vlad said what he said..."one of the greatest songwriters ever". The dude was one of the best at everything, which over shadows all the great songs he wrote. Imagine Prince In a wheelchair, unable to play and perform...it would be undeniable that he was one of the best songwriters...up there with Beatles of them that get all the accolades

[omarscruggs]

i dont even think of Purple Rain as a soundtrack. just a Prince album. one of the greatest albums/soundtracks of all time

[manh]

She looks amazing for 62. Glad to see she’s been taking care of herself, and has self respect. Looks younger then half the moms at my nephews school when I’m picking him up

[MaryLou]

Why does she keep saying “My” album when she was joined a group that was already established before she came in, but keeps saying “my” album not ours?

"Purify yourself in The Waters of Lake Minnetonka"

Prince / Dave Chappelle .

She's a class act! She could have lied about a relationship but didn't! No clout chasing from her at all! 👏 👏

[fishgrz]

Damn!! He did all that!!!?!? Ol girl must’ve had that fire 🔥 🤣🤣🤣

[Hi-Felicia]

She is still stun-ning! Honey!! I didnt know that she is latina until vanity died. I began doing so much research because as a Minnesotan we think that we know all things Prince, but after i saw his reaction to the death of Vanity, i wanted to know more about the women who were in Prince’s life. He seemed to be intentional about including super talented (and beautiful) women and people of color in his creative circle. F’n amazing! I’m excited to watch all 100 parts, Glad!

It has been rumored for decades that there is a video of an extremely graphic version of the love scene between Prince and Apollonia as depicted in "Purple Rain." Surprised you didn't inquire about this Vlad.

[garyjones]

Take me with you to me has the greatest opening to ever be done . Other than Dr. Feel Good 😂

[LiveLeveLeviL]

The way she describes it, he was looking out/ protecting his investment not stalking her romantically…. people with big money hire investigators & fixers to shadow VIP’s all the time even injecting actor personalities to watch them closely…

[jchappelleh]

Pay close attention Fellas to what she said: "You would have to ask him..."

Translation: She was willing, he wasn't. If a woman says that, she was into you.

[aprilwatson]

She Was David Lee Roth When She Was In Purple Rain..Lisa Coleman is Quoted In People Tribute Magazine As Prince SAID she isn't a Strong Singer Her an Jill Jones had To Fill Both Apollonia an Vanity Lead Vocals..

[MisterLowrider]

Prince did a lot of things out of the ordinary but that's probably what made him so successful at his craft!!!

[xavierwilliams]

If prince could speak to vlad to answer his question is where im done lol

[justlondeya]

Oh ain't tapping that phone for no reason 😆

[Awsme_J]

Even in his death she ain’t tellin it, that’s a real one right there

[wileyjohnson]

I'm sure she was just exaggerating when she said Prince had her phone tapped that is illegal.
