Apollonia Kotero - Purple Rain (1984)

Apollonia Kotero, in the 1984 film "Purple Rain," is featured in notable nude scenes that have become iconic: The Lake Minnetonka Scene: Perhaps the most remembered, Apollonia Kotero's character strips down to her black panties and goes topless before diving into what is referred to as Lake Minnetonka. This scene has been widely discussed for its sensuality and the cold water conditions under which it was filmed, with Kotero actually jumping into freezing water multiple times, leading to her developing hypothermia. Apollonia appears topless in this lake scene, and there are discussions around additional nude or semi-nude scenes in the film where she's seen in minimal clothing or during intimate moments with Prince's character, The Kid. Despite rumors about additional explicit content, the film itself does not contain full frontal nudity but focuses on Apollonia's topless moment and her in lingerie or black panties. These scenes contributed significantly to the film's notoriety and Apollonia Kotero's rise to fame. The combination of the film's music, performances, and these provocative scenes helped "Purple Rain" become a cultural phenomenon.
