Entertainment Weekly columnist Dalton Ross asks the same question I have:

He just has a lot more specific evidence:

Exhibit A: ''Erotic City.'' You know what, I don't even need to reprint the lyrics here. Suffice it to say Prince and Apollonia are talking about doing things to each other which I'm pretty sure CBS doesn't want to broadcast on national television.
