Prince was primarily living in Los Angeles at the time — the numbers 3121 are a reference to the famous “3121 house” where he lived and threw star-studded parties in that era — and he tapped Salma Hayek to direct the video for the album’s first single, “Te Amo Corazon.” “Salma heard the song and came up with the original concept,“ Prince said in a statement when the video was released. “Salma is the most thoughtful, attentive director I have ever worked with. An absolute joy.“ The video stars Prince and the actress Mia Maestro, who was a close friend of Hayek’s and her co-star in the 2002 movie Frida. As Hayek would remember years later, it was really only because of Prince’s encouragement that she ever dreamed of directing a music video. “He was so, so supportive of me. He was always telling me that I should go back to directing, because I had done one little thing for television. And then one day, he said, ‘Okay, today’s the day. You have to do this song for me,’” she told W Magazine. “We had a great time; we didn’t really feel like we were working.” #Prince #Pop #Funk
