Sinead O'Connor, 'Nothing Compares 2 U'

Soon after this exquisitely sad song topped the charts, O'Connor was invited to meet its diminutive author Prince ... to disastrous result. She told the Mirror that their exchange ended with both expletives and punches thrown, and some spittle for good measure. "All I could do was spit. I spat on him quite a bit," she admitted. Years later, when fans at a 2005 concert shouted "Prince!" during an encore, Sinead snapped, "F--- that f---ing midget!"

The story is old as hell.

Yet despite her angst against anything that went down between her and Prince, she still sings "Nothing Compares 2 U", even in recent months on The Graham Norton Show.

Yeah,it's a weird story,isn't it? lol

I honestly don't know what to believe.Sinead claims that Prince invited her to his home,then proceeded to cuss her out and threaten to "kick her ass" eek

"His problem is that I did a song of his ("Nothing Compares 2 U") without him being involved",O'Connor claims."He's jealous.I think that,frankly,that song saved his fucking ass.He was in serious financial trouble until that song happened".

hmmm

thedude	"All I could do was spit. I spat on him quite a bit," she admitted. That is the part I find hilarious. Just visualising it.

SoulAlive	Supposedly,Prince didn't like Sinead's tough-as-nails attitude.He told her: "You know,you really should put on a dress and stop swearing so much".

japanrocks	Sinead was a hottie with hair and I bet Prince knew that. He was just trying to get some I bet and she blew him off. Good for her. He's a fucking dick.

Sinead is crazy,but the reason why this story is hard to dismiss is because,we've heard similiar stories about Prince having problems with some of his female proteges.

Apollonia has said that,when she decided to leave the Prince camp in 1985,he got all pissed and told her "You'll never make it without me!".

Jill Jones had some drama with Prince in the early 90s.

Vanity and Prince had some vicious arguments/fights back in the day.

At one point in the mid-90s,Sheila E. wasn't even allowed at Paisley Park anymore.Prince was feuding with Gilbert Davison,and he was pissed that Sheila decided to remain friends with him.He felt betrayed shrug

The Sinead story isn't hard to believe at all lol I could imagine him having issues with a strong,opinionated woman who says and does exactly what she wants to.

Let's not forget that Sinead has been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and that Prince publicly wished her well after watching her on Oprah. Sure, Sinead said still went crazy on Prince after his peace offer but hey, she's clinically crazy God bles her.
