"I hate bathtime." -Anakin ///yooooo im sorry but im totally imagining ani as a padawan running around dirty what a little shit

“Anakin,” Obi-Wan sighed.  This was yet another time that he sort of wished he could bring Qui-Gon back just to shake him and push him out of a window.  “I know you don’t, but you have to.  It’s not hygienic.  Besides, I thought you liked water?”

‘’I don’t know if I’d be here if I hadn’t met Prince backstage at the American Music Awards,’’ she muses. ‘’I know I would have done everything I could to get here. I wanted to sing, I wanted to act, I wanted to do all the things I’m doing now.’’

But Vanity - who was known as Denise Matthews before Prince renamed her - does insist that the Minneapolis sex-funkster promoted her because of her talent, not because of their two-year on-again-off-again love affair.

‘’I didn’t go home with him right away,’’ she says matter-of-factly. ‘’He called me, we dated - it was all very romantic. He didn’t even know I wanted to sing until he heard me one day. Then he helped me put a group together.’’

‘’You’ll have to ask Prince, why Vanity?’’ She smiles, ‘’but I think the main reason is ‘cause when he looks in the mirror, he sees me.’’

Vanity thinks of herself, even today, as Prince’s soul-mate. The role played in Purple Rain by Apollonia (Patty) Kotero was not only originated for Vanity, but was based on her life and in part written by her. Vanity’s reaction to seeing someone else’s face mouthing her words is mixed.

‘’I think it’s great that somebody’s playing me and I’m not even dead yet!’’ she jokes.

‘’I don’t have anything against Apollonia. I met her, we had a nice talk. Hey, I’m going to be in a million movies. One movie’s not going to blow my career away.’’

But there’s a side of Vanity that’s a little more thoughtful about the situation. She has not, it might be noted, actually seen the movie itself. ‘’There’s a big part of me that doesn’t want to see it,’’ she says. ‘’Prince and I were so close, I know the effect he still has on me. It hurts. What relationship have you ever been in that didn’t hurt? There’s a lot of us in that movie.’’

Vanity is again both playful and pensive when she talks about her current love life. ‘’I like someone who keeps me on my toes,’’ she says, ‘’someone who dominates my life at the same time I’m dominating him. But,’’ she sighs, ‘’it’s hard to have a relationship with somebody else with all this publicity about Prince.’’
