Really sad thread if its true

I like Rosie. Always have. But lets face it - I have all of her albums and none of them are masterpeices.

IS it me or does prince only sing live with big black women(Shelbey, Rosie, Chaka)

He also shares the stage with young black proteges Tamar and Sheila. Not that it's a bad thing but does he ever sing onstage with any of the his proteges who weren't black?

Mayte sang some parts but that's nothing, practically.

this comment makes no sense

even though Sheena Easton (U Got The Look) isnt his protege

Sheila Escavedo is Latino

Shelby isn't a BBW when you see her up close and nor his protege either she was on D'Angelo's Voodoo tour with Anthony Hamilton & ?uestlove

so having HIP and being curvy makes you a BBW... you need to leave Hawaii and see the rest of AMERICA

And in the rest of America, she'd be called a BBW. Especially by Hollywood standards. Anything over a damn size 4-6 is practically considered a BBW. And she definately ain't no size 4. I've seen her up close, she's a "thicker" lady. As are his 2 other back up singers, no big deal though. Americans are, well, "larger than average." Just because the majority of the country is over a size 14, doesn't make a size 14 "skinny." Shelby is who she is, she owns it, and works it! I guess Prince has a thing for certain types of live/backup singers...

She's not as big as rosie or chaka by any means but she' still "big" enough to be called big.

Compared to sheila e and even tamar she's not as thin as they are that's why I put her in that category. Trust me there are BIG people on EVERY part of Hawaii...don't trip.

I saw Rosie in the casino of the MGM when Prince was playing Studio 54 back in the 90s. I thought they were bringing one of the circus elephants through for display but then I realized it as wearing a huge silk parachute as a dress and it was Rosie. Love Rosie
