Cuz, ya know, gay people don't believe in God and they certainly are never members of conservative religions.

Prince: gay, straight, bi? I don't care one bit, but people who rabidly defend his assumed heterosexuality are just plain annoying. Never, never assume you know for sure what another's preferences are.


btw -those that think it's possible he's gay or bi aren't basing that opinion on the fact that he wears women's clothes and makeup. If they were, you'd see a whole lot more people questioning Dennis Rodman's sexuality....

Great points. Not only does Prince have the gay look but he has some of the gestures as well.

vainandy said:

So the fact that he may look gay and have some of the gestures actually make him gay? Really what are they basing it on? I wonder why else i hear the majority of people accusing him that and why it became a rumour in the first place

And i was just stating my opinion i dont go on about it all the time. Its just even some of the above posts state the fact with all the falling out he had with his associates etc, something would have maybe slipped out by now.

But whatever its just me being pissed when hearing all that stuff from people who dont appreciate him at all, this is opinions from fans, its all good.

Also if you're meaning he'd still be in denial by joining the JW i think after all these years of trying to hide it with countless gf's etc i think that'd just be the icing on the cake and would eventually maybe drive him crazy with all this repression and do a Jacko

Oh so you are going on generalizations. I thought you had a juicy morsel of gossip to tell.

There are several songs that I hear that I figure the writer and band must have been on drugs to create it because you need to be on drugs to really get the full effect.
the original "fly like an eagle" is one that comes to mind.

Continue to be annoyed then if you keep coming to this board. I think most of us are saying if he is gay or bisexual. Why is it that he has never been outed.

I do not recall any rumors about P being gay. I lot of it is wishful thinking for some people.

Prince plays all of his instruments and produces the recods.

That he works hard.

All that sex talk is overdone-he's old fashioned.

Prince was a big fan of "Happy Days" and The Fonz.


He watches MJ's court cases on video.

His team beat Charlie Murphy's in hoop.

Yes! Thank you! I never knew Prince had such snotty fans until I joined this site!

Krystal666 said:

Yeah, you're alright Krystal. Some of your posts are waaaaayyyyy out there, but you always get EVERYBODY talkin'. So many people post on your threads. You're very popular. Fuck the negativity. This is weird. I'm defending you. I'm usually pretty negative myself. I couldn't stand Zelaria's posts and you do remind me of her very often, but for some reason I kinda like you...weird.

I believed he was half white for a long times

Some people still believe that rumor

well i dont care what no one says or thinks my logic is if p's father is half black and italian and if p's mother is a mixture of different races that means he has to be half black and italian and whatever his mother is. it only makes perfectly good sense to me.

Tiffypoo2004 said:

If you go by that theory then almost all black ppl are of mixed race. I've got plenty of mixed ppl in my bloodline. Too me in order for me to consider someone of mixed race (meaning that I make sure to say they are mixed because it matters) they need to have, at the least, a grandparent or maybe a great grandparent of a different full blood race.

Tiffypoo2004 said:

Then, based on that, every black American is mixed

Who told you that his father was half Italian?

Who told you his mother was mixed?

I should have my own site...fuck Prince!

Tiffypoo2004 said:

In order for Prince to be half and half one of his PARENTS would have to be another race.

There is an interview on HQ from Ebony Mag (1984) where John L. Nelson, Prince's FATHER states that both he and Mattie are Black. He further stated that Prince has a white GREAT-GREAT GRANDPARENT on his side and a Native American GREAT-GREAT GRANDPARENT on his mothers side.

So, like most of us African Americans, Prince has a couple drops of other races in his blood.

I think his own father should know so I'll take his word for it.

Prince is far from the other glam rockers of his era. Many of them sported a gay look but their gestures were masculine. Prince's feminine gestures look like they come natural to him and a lot of times when he acts masculine, it looks very un-natural and rehearsed.

People are very capable of looking and acting gay and still be straight, but from what I have seen in my lifetime, these people are extremely rare.




The same could be said of his ex associates not speaking about anything in his life. He seems to have an obsession with privacy (one of the things that added to his mystery and made him a star) and has them sign confidentiality agreements. He even has visitors and even fans to Paisley Park sign these agreements. For someone as obsessed with privacy as Prince, I wouldn't be surprised if he had male sex partners sign similar agreements.




People can think he's gay and still appreciate him. For some of us, it's the reason we appreciate him. If I think Prince could possibly be gay, I am not insulting him, I am giving him the highest complement possible.




Jehovah's Witnesses have nothing to do with it. He could have been in denial his whole life. It's possible that he could have always had sexual urges towards men but never acted on them.
[Edited 7/4/05 5:43am]

Well i beg to differ on the gay gestures but this one could go on for ages.
But as i said if he really had these urges he wouldnt dress like that, I mean he could have just come out at some point and with his whole i-dont-give-a-fuckness, just sang about gay sex instead.
And there's nothing wrong with a bit of privacy, exactly that's what gave him his mystery and he was like that from the very start. Personally if he'd pissed me off extremely i really wouldnt give a shit about any agreement, im sure others would agree.
Really though with so many years of repression it would have done him extreme damage, and many stars have come out, there's nothing wrong with that i dont see why Prince couldnt. And at first you're talking about him maybe having male patners then towards the end maybe he just had urges so he didnt act on them. Well with the high amount of gayness Prince seems to have im sure he would have acted on them. Again he seems to be comfortable being a JW and acting like a pimp in interviews. But maybe thats just me

The only person that would know the answer to these questions would be Prince himself and whatever men (if any) he slept with. I know if I had slept with Prince and signed some type of agreement, I would think twice about doublecrossing him. He gives off the vibe of being a ruthless bitch that would destroy anyone that crossed him. That's one of the things I admire about him.

A lot of gay entertainers have come out, but if I were Prince, I wouldn't want to follow the same route that they did. I would much rather prefer to be mysterious about it and not confirm or deny it. A lot of gay men do not want people placing "weak" stereotypes that the general public likes to associate with gay men. All this begging for acceptance would not be my thing. My thing would be "I don't give a fuck if you like it or not" and if it pissed people off, I would love it even more because straight people don't beg for acceptance.

The only openly gay entertainer that I have seen with the balls enough to openly sing about relationships with the same sex, and made hard kick ass jams, rather than weak, sappy ballads, would be Sylvester. People like Elton John are doing tired Disney shit these days.

if you want to post some quasi-intellectual thesis on why everything prince has created is genius, then go right ahead...but your not....yet you crap on her...

doesnt make since....none at all..

And im gonna stop arguing for the Org and it's people's sake. Whatever dude

babynoz said:

my point exactly

Tiffypoo2004 said:

Exactly.

Many African Americans have a background similar to Prince's and like Prince, we are BLACK people.

Krystal666 said:

Didn't Prince once drink 63 beers on a cross-country flight???

ok,
for a long time, I believe Prince made a deal with the Devil to become a big star.
I went to a catholic high school and in religion class they had some guy come in and lecture about devil worshipping in rock music and subliminal messages.
Beatles (I think it is called number 9,) Stairway to heaven, Hotel California... these were songs that supposedly have backward messages.
I heard a rumor that Prince's music did also.

In my mind that explained why he was so freaking talented in all those instruments which is still today unheard of.
