Because many of us, as explained before, did not know the insides and workings of the Mayte/Manuella/Prince/Eric situation. Many of us still don't know, outside of what people are saying on the org. And not until recently did I care to look into it. We cannot expect people to feel the need to look into Prince's MF relations the way some here do. Many people divorce themselve from it. Did all those people in Prince's camp 1998-2000 see/notice that Prince was still married to Mayte(to the world) when he was courting Manuella... Rhonda Larry Graham Blackwell etc etc?

.



Well since we are finger wagging now..... lol

To be fair, most members here including you and myself seldom read or commented on any of Prince's personal associates until he passed and they began crawling out of the woodwork, so to speak. I actually do not expect that to continue much longer past the anniversary, but I could be wrong.

With that in mind and in keeping with the holiday spirit I would like to beg a favor?

Can we get another sticky for John Blackwell, who is back in critical condition? It's kind of odd that the thread about his situation has been mostly ignored and is sinking to the bottom of the forum while people take sides in the stan wars.

We have multiple threads about the exes and their various projects while a man is literally hanging on by a thread. It would be great to see some $$ going in that direction but there are hardly any posts on that thread!

Yeah I agree, I hope it does last much longer. I think it will go on a little longer,

Sure, I'll see what happened, and post another add the last updates etc

Ex-wife, ex-band, songs...



I guess EB just has a fetish for all P's sloppy seconds.



It's a good thing EB's too big to fit into P's clothes and shoes or he'd probably do a photoshoot in them, too. Sheesh



Hmmm hmmm





omg eek Oh my f*%king word, hahahahahahahahaha!!!! That's freaking hysterical LBrent!!!! hug lol lol




That was mean of me.



sad

Does anybody know if lawyers can sue anyone using Prince's songs for lucrative purposes?


I remember Prince saying on the Lopez Tonight that there was a "compulsory law" that allows anyone to take any song....but not sure where this stands.



Was Eric Benet ever an associate of Prince?




Yup



He was associated with P's second wife's nether regions.



Ok, Ok...I'll stop. boxed





yeahthat

I need this clarified. Do any of you guys know if it is true he sang "Do Me, Baby" at the private memorial M2 and M1 put on in LA?



--I remember someone saying he did. I would love for fans to go to his show and throw a bannna at his head😀 however, I know Orince fans are too cool to waste money and time seeing this clown. What kind of marriage does he have with his wife? I feel sorry for Orince to have been married to this gold digging women who is still trying to get money off Prince and will not let him rest in peace. Pathetic.


That's right. Orince married gold digging dingbat wives bc he didn't know better confused Whatever. Maybe you should have been his life coach?





I did not say he did not know any better. [Snip - luv4u]Even if he knew better it does not mean he should still have these goldigging bitches trying to get money from the grave. [Snip - luv4u]

We need evidence to back this claim up razz otherwise hearsay.

People went as far as predicting the couple would not be together for much longer and that has yet to happen.

As for who gets to do what, there is nothing that can be done to stop them. Sick people went as far as created a hate group and yet Mayte is now a bookseller author with her book. So, basically people can talk all they want, bring up all type of information to keep the negativity going, and yet ....the beat goes on for whomever wants to.

I hear you. But the reality is that the hoopla around Prince's death is a treacherous place and fans should probably call out his associates if they are forgetting or seeming to forget where a lot of this all started and that a man died basically working himself to death. You spend so much time defending the Revolution and claiming they don't get enough credit. Why do you do it? Its no skin off your back if Lisa doesn't get credit for the opening of Raspberry Beret? You have a passionate interest as well. We can't read people's minds but maybe if associates are able to see how their behavior appears, they will either curve their behavior, justify their behavior, clarify their intentions and/or self-evaluate..THAT's not a bad thing.

Imagine if every single negative belief about his associates was true, that they are all exploiting him and were a bit happy about his passing because it cleared the way for their careers, wouldn't that be the saddest thing? It would kind of shake my faith in humanity because it would prove that Prince was probably the loneliness man who ever lived. If people are acting nuts and overreacting to the imagined slights by associates, then maybe the associates will read this stuff and put people's fears at bay (will clarify) and help them reattain their faith in artists like Prince and his associates.

Your #4 has nothing to do with the Revolution being respectful of Prince. Also, just because Manuela worked at Paisley in 97 doesn't mean they were cheating by then (which seemed to be what you were implying). She did start off as an employee after all. She wasn't some kind of live-in slut.

By the way, I don't hate Manuela, Mayte or Prince. Prince is the one that messed up...but that doesn't let Mayte off the hook or the Revolution off the hook if they are being disrespectful now especially if they are being disingenious to fans of his... PRINCE DIED...he can't defend himself or make amends even if he wanted to (and his fans are hurting) . If folks can't forgive him now, then the issue isn't with Prince..its with themselves.

#4 is people up in arms about 2 but not 3

.

the other part was seperate.
I did not say Prince was cheating by 1997 But he was not divorced from Mayte in 2000 while Mayte is put away at the house in Spain.
Again #4 people see Mani & Eric but not Mani & Prince

Mayte said her relation with Mani was peticular for a reason.

Prince's divorce was June 2000

http://prince.org/msg/5/440879

Look everyone is off the hook, I mean what is anyone going to do but not buy the book, not go to the concert? Seriously, I think people have too much emotionally invested in this fantasy fight.

.

If u think someone is being disingenious, how r u going to find out one way or another? How are you going to find the intent of their heart, or if someone really did not know about something. If I didn't as HUGE of a Prince fan as I am why should others. Most of the hardcore dude Prince fans I know seriously are not into that stuff like this. What would satifsy u? You've asked this question in almost every thread in the AA forum about them being disingenious. And would the answer really satisfy you.

.
True if PRince fans or these associate women cannot forgive now, maybe they will in time, or not.
But I'm not talking about that, like I said I don't care one way or another people know or don't know, I wasn't married to Prince Mayte Mani or Eric.

.

But Prince sure did put the story in his music. That is the important thing for me.

Look I get it that we all to various expressions are hurt, I'm right there with U.
And as is usual in most passing of people, there are periods of confusion, anger, loniness etc

It should pass soon. It should.

--Stories have been going around for years that he runs around on her. If you go up to women asking them out people are going to talk.

You remember he ran around on Halle Berry with an old ex from his hometown and that ex spilled the beans. You know he tried to get out of his prenup and get Halle to pay child support for his daughter. You know that their are stories he ran around M2 before the divorce.

I don't remember because I don't go that far when it comes to people's dirty laundry, which I'm sure we all have to some extent.

I remember seeing something M2 said about her and EB having been married a full year before the public ceremony they had, and only family jnew or something.

Dunno what that was all about, but it was in a thread after 4/21 here on the Org.

Seems like this whole saga is full to the brim with dirty laundry. Sheesh

Of course it is. If both of these fools had any sense they would just shut up about Prince before someone spills the beans on them. M2 already looks shady from the divorce file.

I always suspected Eric Benet was jealous of Prince and wanted Prince's musical accomplishments, fame, allure with women and anything associated with Mr. Nelson. I have no respect for Eric Benet because no grown man should want to imitate another man. Benet is the ultimate embodiment of a bitch because he has no dignity and personal pride. Dude married Prince's second wife, now doing a Prince tribute? He's no better than a lame Prince tribute act. This truly is the most disturbing adage of "women want to be with him, men want to be like him"

You didn't know that? I think one was some BET thing and the other was the Essence pre Grammy party. He found out they were going to be there and said, "If they are I'm not" and poof-- those two were univinted. That's why I don't believe that M2 talked to him just before his passing and told him about the school. Total bs. They were not on speaking terms.

I agree there. I really don't think there was any contact between the two of them. Not sure why they are doing all this Prince stuff now when they were quiet about him before that.

I've read conflicting things about that so not taking that as proof. For every single thing since 4/21/16, fans of the org have been saying the exact same thing about it, "he wouldn't have wanted that". Starting with the cremation to the museum and beyond. I'm not taking what fans say as proof of anything, sure some of it has panned out, most hasn't. I don't know but it just seems a bit strange what the people I've seen within the camp are doing and saying vs. what people not in the camp are saying.

But if it is a fact that these two were uninvited from ceremonies per Prince's request, it is difficult to imagine they were all buddies.

Right. Morningsong- all you have to do is Google it. Not fans saying what they THINK he felt about the pair- if he had them uninvited then, that's not exactly what you do with people you are on friendly terms with.

Which can lead one to speculate he was trying to make himself look good before the JW's crowd while pushing her to divorce him.

That attorney who knows seeks over 600, 000 dollars for unpaid legal fees is under scrutinity in his trial as of now.

This is my normal life. These marital standards cannot be recreated with money.
