Protegee Girl Groups


I've always loved girl groups, and it seems in the 80s there were a few that were backed by very successful men...

Mary Jane Girls
- I was sold on the name! These girls were protégées of Rick James, getting there start as backup dancers/singers for his band. The only one that could really sing was Jojo. They each had a character in the group, sexy and streetwise, Leatherette,Valley girl and model. Rick James wrote and produced all there hits, check'em out!




Vanity 6/Apollonia 6- Prince suggested to his girlfriends to start a girl group, performing in lingerie, and singing very dirty lyrics, these girls get it done! Vanity, is obviously the leader, the six represents the number of boobs in the group! How clever you are Prince!


this is one of my favorite videos of all time!!!
