Who is the Hot Ass Guy in the Apollonia 6 video for Sex Shooter?

Why do men from the 80s all look so feminine?

And what is with these "Basic Becky" dance moves. This shit is laughable!

You’re trying too hard, R1.

Very transparent.

R2 Trying too hard? What are you talking about?

To be a negative Nelly Ripa.

History does not record the name of this talented dancer and saxophonist, OP. Wikipedia, however, does record that Apollonia was "dating Van Halen singer David Lee Roth on and off when they were both in Los Angeles."

What hot ass guy? That bloated puerto rican looking one that can’t dance?

^ That's Jellybean Benitez

I can see the resemblance, but I don’t think that’s Mr. Benitez in the video.

R2 and R4 You cannot tell me the man in the blue with that hairstyle and those clothes doesn't look like a sissy. That look is very typical for a lot of men in the 80s. I know this because I'm very familiar with the 80s. Next time why don't you do some research before opening your fat trap to disagree with things you know nothing about!

I do give you points for Nelly Ripa though. That was kinda funny...

OP is a Nasty Girl

Okay, yes, I get what you mean, but my main point of interest here is the juicy Latin gentleman in the leather pants with the broad shoulders.

~I gotta be home by 10 But I’ll be your bestest friend~

The guy in Vanity’s Pretty Mess video is somewhat femme, but still totally gorgeous to me, for some reason.

That is Apollonia’s real life brother George

A new low in DL credential-presentation

R15 Sure, go ahead and argue with the presentation since you can't dispute the substance. You're WEAK! You are the typical low mentality DL Queen sashaying around in a moo moo, just bitching to bitch. STFU!

Yawn

I’m really a Democrat, but Biden…

I’m a doctors, but masks…

I’m an expert on the 80s, but that man in the blue…

I hate when I get cum all over my dress too.

So glad that Denise “Vanity” Matthews finally had an official yewtewb page!

I was porked by a guy who claimed to be the dancer in the backless football jersey from Tina Turner's 'What's Love Got to With It' video.

R18 That dribble you typed makes no sense. Try harder next time. It's sad.

Hm, i thought Vanity died awhile back.

I remember when she was on [italic]Falcon Crest[/italic] and Lance (Lorenzo Lamas) called her "Apples."

Dead as a doornail, R23!

What a boring troll you are, r22.

Sorry if your reading comprehension is so bad.

R26 Too bad you cannot articulate anything worthy of comprehension!

Another cut-and-paste response.

Can’t you post anything original, or even relevant?

You’re too boring to troll anymore. Time for your grease fire.

R28 Have you not yet figured out, that you are not worthy of an elaborate response? You'd be too stupid to understand one anyway!😂

Gosh I miss sleazy and fun 80s music like this!

Obligatory:

Apollonia 6's best song (of course Brenda sings lead):

Fun, too, but would never fly today.

Best V6 track imo:

This silly ass wonderful fuckin song..

Vanity was styled by Prince to be his female alter ego. When she left him, he fashioned Apollonia in that style but it never really worked for her. What's most interesting is that Prince's presentation was already very feminized. His recording of "Sex Shooter" hints at what may have been his secret desires.

The Vanity 6 version is the funkiest.

[quote] Vanity was styled by Prince to be his female alter ego. When she left him, he fashioned Apollonia in that style but it never really worked for her.

For what Prince was going for, Apples was too sweet and nice, and she looked it too--an adorable albeit sexy Bambi. Vanity was a sweet lady too, but her look and vibe when she performed had a hard, dark, and sleazy edge to it (presumably what drew that grotesque incubus Nikki Sixx in her direction). Vanity also committed to the bit harder, which gave V6 more of a subversive and adult-humour feel. A6 just feels girly, cutesy-camp, like Katy Perry.

No, that was Camille.

Prince cut several hard-funk and raunchy songs where he was singing in this husky, twangy, feline, higher voice, which he called 'Camille' and referred to as his feminine side in terms of music & performance. Some of the most cult-popular Prince songs with hardcore fans are considered to be 'Camille' songs, such as: Housequake, Rockhard In A Funky Place, U Got The Look, Strange Relationship, If I Was Ur Girlfriend, 3121, Rebirth Of The Flesh, Love Or Money, Feel U Up, Shockadelica, Scarlet Pussy. Several of these tracks were intended for an unreleased/shelved album titled and attributed to Camille.

Sorry, but am I the only one who finds this music to be AWFUL? The production is clunky, the songs don't have melodies and the lyrics are absolutely ridiculous... To be honest, I have never understood what's the fuss about Prince, who had about ten great singles and piles of atrociously bad songs in his repertoire, not to mention that his voice was far from impressive.

Do you not like to fuck, then?

It’s great sex music.

Probably her best vocal.

You can tell she’s totally high on crack in the segments where she’s on the stairs wearing the pirate hat because of her glassy eyes. Still stunning, though.

I would’ve loved to have heard someone like Aaliyah cover this track.

More Vanity, cuz why not on this rainy day in Michigan?

One of the guys in the Sex Shooter video looks vaguely like one of the two male backing singers/dancers Madonna used on her '85 Virgin Tour. No idea of any names, but there is a resemblance.

The Latino guy the OP is referring to is Apollonia’s brother George, shown in the photo below with Apollonia and her then-husband, the uber hot actor Kevin Bernhardt. The other guy in the Sex Shooter video is Leroy Bennett, Prince’s longtime lighting guy and the former husband of V6/A6 member Brenda Bennett. Leroy has also worked with multiple other artists, including Janet Jackson and Lady Gaga.

^^^It is distasteful that Apollonia is STILL milking her very brief association with Prince.

Apollonia has no talent. Can't sing, dance, act or play an instrument. It's laughable she thinks she cowrote material with Prince. Prince worked with real talented women like Sheila E, Wendy and Lisa, Tamar, Lizzo, Andy Allo, Rosie Gaines and Chaka Khan. Apples was a pinup model who was just hired for her resemblance to Vanity who dropped out Purple Rain during production. Vanity wasn't much talented either but was charismatic and a great showwoman who had fun on stage and connected with her audience. She was developing into a decent actress too.

I do believe Apollonia's claims. Some of it adds up. Prince was an enigma for sure. He would write and produce entire albums for various proteges and then give them writing and production credits (The Time, Sheila E., Vanity 6, etc.), but would not always give credit to Lisa & Wendy, Andre Cymone, etc., for their extensive work on various songs.
