Her song which was a chant and yell from her toes she did 3 to 4 times she was at my church. She stomped the ground and scream and yell like a rocker...but the beauty was indescribable. She would pound her fists and march across the stage yelling "he is under my feet"!! " he's under my feet" and she...from crescendos to a whispers.... "he's under my feet!! (Devil) then the would scream and marcb and stomp. He's under my FEET!!! AND she would have her personal praise...sing. Was the most beautiful experience ever! Her spirit was so beautiful. She asked that she had plenty of bottles water and a fruit basket. She was doing her peritoneal dialysis in her hotel room. She spoke about as she preached her early yrs of all the pastors she would party and drug with. Even as a minister. In her latter yrs, she totally repented and cleaned up. She almost had a sense she would not have long. Beautiful woman. She took Michaela my daughter...she was a newborn, in her arms and dance and sang. I jus CRIED!

I believe Prince and Vanity were truly soul mates! They never really loved anyone like they loved each other. Super weird they died two months apart.

Fate did bring them together again they both past the same year a few months apart. Prince and Vanity 4 Ever💯

It cleared up alot of stuff which makes alot of sense now. She could not have both a career and his love. So she choose her career. Even tho she's a gorgeous woman. Prince had eyes for other women. And Sheila E. the Glamorous Life was about the reason Vanity left him. Interesting. Its like I've always said. There was no women on this earth that could compete with Prince and his music. Prince's first and only true lastng love was his music. He never cheated on it. Never abandoned it. He never put it on a back burner. Vanity finally figured it out.

I'm so glad I came across this video. This is by far the most accurate portrayal of the dynamics between Prince and Vanity and how it all went down. Thank you. It's very personal for me as I was the "boy" she mentions at :41:10 that got carried off the dance floor by Chic, Prince's bodyguard at First Avenue nightclub. I never knew she publicly spoke of this night in an interview - so I was stunned when I saw this. I lived in Minneapolis back in the day and she and I first met at a dance bar in 1983, at the height of her Vanity 6 career, and we immediately became close friends. Prince never liked me or she and I being out in public together because in the pre-Purple Rain production days, he wanted the appearance they were still a couple for publicity reasons (also ego and control). He told me to stay away from her numerous times, which of course, we ignored. That infamous night, he saw us on the dance floor, had me picked up (literally) and carried upstairs to his private balcony where we had an "exchange." Which resulted in me being thrown out of the club on my ass (also literally). I still can picture her horrified expression at the door and being held there to witness. She and I rendezvoused later that night. This was the final straw of her being controlled. I was one of the lucky few, and there were very few, that remained close to her throughout her journey of self-discovery. She told me I was "the cutest guy in the world' the night we first met and often throughout our 30+ year friendship. She signed her autobiography, "Blame It on Vanity" to, "The Cutest Guy in the World. Love Denise to my Dear Friend. Lotta Love." It's one of my most cherished possessions. She truly is still the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, and her inner-beauty was beyond. She is greatly missed.

I never knew he, or the others for that fact, also had any run ins with Prince and the team. I always found it ironic that he was threatened by me as she and I were friends, nothing more, and he knew this but it still didn't stop him from trying to keep us apart. When she started writing her autobiography, she would call me out of the blue to help her fill in the blanks during those days. I was the trusted sidekick. HaHa. Such turbulent times but I only smile when I look back at them. I was only 22 and she 24 when we first met.

But now, it seems so clear the real story talks about Vanity and Prince in some way! I've just seen it on Prime Video (actually) made me look for the characters. And I'm impressed on how this girl expressed her thoughts about God, even being too young, and other concepts. And how good she knew about it, since the beginning. Fame isn't for everyone. But Price made a tribute for her, after she passed away, and then, he passes too! Life is fantastic, if you are capable to fill your heart with love. Decisions just make us to accomplish our roles in life. Don't ever give up on your dreams, for anyone! I'm pretty sure, they're together in heaven, again. Fantastic video!

Poor Denise. I feel she really had to leave. I heard a lot of the interviews in her but not all. After this I believe her drug intake increased AFTER leaving, to cope. He was philandering, controlling any artist expression if you stayed, and never giving himself fully as it's impossible when you're spilt and usually you're going everywhere because you're scared of abandonment which cannot occur without attachment. So she had to go. Why'd he have to be so talented and fine but so destructive. SMH.

Glad she shed the darkness to find the light before she went home. The fact she had been through all of that and still had the fortitude and will to better herself and share her mistakes with others so they could avoid them says alot to me about her heart. Her inner beauty finally joined her outer beauty. I hope she is at peace.

I agree. Denise was a class act. So many women in Prince's life have remarked on how nice she was to them when they met. Susannah tries to paint Denise as being insecure and threatened, but I think she was projecting.

Very informative! I never knew the REAL REASON why Prince and Vanity broke up until now.

@@momoiida5505 You are exactly right. Leaving Prince wasn't her undoing, it was her drug habit. She told a story about screwing up a chance to be in a film with Tom Cruise (he was a mega star at the time) because of her awful drug addiction. Tom wanted her for the part, but she was high when she went to the meeting with the director.

Look at all the people that stayed with Prince. They got shelved. He moved on. Vanity got paid 100 times more when she left and got great lead roles and album deal. If she would have stayed she would have stayed broke then shelved.

Purple Rain didn’t exactly do much for the acting careers of the co stars. Apples (who I did like) got as far as a story arc on Falcon Crest and some straight to video fare. At least V scored some theatrically released films and a few chart singles. The Last Dragon was actually quite popular.

The more I watch interviews with Vanity here the more I see Prince in her. She's like his female counterpart. It's scary... Maybe that's the reason why they couldn't stay together.

The guy singing the pageant song at the beginning reminds me of that cheesy "Miss Chrysanthemum pageant" song in that Charlie's Angels episode.

Did he say he had to size up the man in order to know how to go about stealing his woman? 😂 He said “tackle” the woman. I guess they didn’t call him “The original Mr. Steal Yo Girl” for nothing. He meant that shit.
