Doesn't feel like that would be in Apple's DNA at all. A lot of their brand identity is a certain Disney-like pristine safeness, and they use it to sell lifestyle products that allow customers to associate with and embody that identity. A social network is all about self-expression and human mess.
Just compare customization/personalization options in Apple software and other software, historically. MySpace it ain't. Apple products are not the ones you import your personality into.
They've certainly dabbled in social features here and there, but none of them have been useful enough to be a hit with customers, I'd argue because what they're willing to do within the limits of their brand guidelines doesn't make for easy social success. Unclear if a working formula exists somewhere in that space on the spectrum.
