you're right and not black. As repeated before, Nona said that P was her boyfriend and if he was he was, but she was not on his arm like somebody we know (Mayte) and who did he marry? and who did marry the second time?


You do realise Robin Power was black don't you?


Definitely. And I also realize this. Robin's a beautiful woman, why couldn't she play Aura instead of LIGHT-SKINNED NON-BLACK, HISPANIC Ingrid Chavez???
How come Robin had to play Morris woman who's coat get walked on to cover a mud puddle for Morris, plus Morris shoves her in one scene. Robin couldn't even play his girlfriend. Who was is girlfriend huh? LIGHT-SKINNED BIRACIAL Jill Jones. He might have tapped Robin, but it was behind closed doors. He didn't Robin on his arm like he did MAYTE, DIAMOND, AND PEARL. He had them in the forefront. Not Robin or Nona.

Girl, really what is your deal? I know in the eighties he did love his white women but come on...why should it matter to us???? It's not like any of us would have a chance with him anyway regardless if we were white, bi-racial or dark skinned. So Prince can parade whoever he wants on his arm and we should be happy for him don't you think? Maybe back in the day Prince didn't like black women very much...that's his problem....but I've noticed latley he seemed to have been hanging with alot of black women like Geneva, Desiree,Tamar...ect...ect..so maybe he has opened his mind and broadened his horizons on what he thinks is attractive. I think the media/society as a whole is becoming more accepting that women of color are attractive...I mean even white men are starting to notice this...so maybe Prince has changed his mind about black women or whatever...who knows. The point is he's not your husband/your not fucking him so it's pointless to be concerned with whether or not he likes black women...there are PLENTY of men out there who do.

The deal is I'm just tellin' the truth, you can go along with any bullshit you want. You the one that had to come up with an answer and I'm just gonna keep comin' back with an answer for you. So what he has Tamar as his newest protege' that's great because he's focusing on talent, but whenever you get though with who did he escort him to the Oscar party this month? Them twins, not Tamar, Celestina, Desiree or whoever the hell you come up with that's black. I'm a black woman and if he chooses to date non-black women that's his choice, but I ain't sittin' up her like you and saying oh he loves all women knowin' he don't and you're right I don't stand a chance and neither do you, nor are fuckin' him either, just in mind (as usual) and my comment ain't too pointless because I
see you got time to post you comment, so it must be pointFUL and you are CONCERNED as well.

There's a lot of naive optimism in those who don't face up to colour prejudice. As beautiful as Tamar is by African beauty standards it's not by chance that Beyonce, Mya, Ashanti, Ciara etc are all lighter skinned, in straight wigs and with less negroid features.

Tamar hasn't got the look to endear herself to western mainstream audiences. Both black and whites have been engineered to accept only the more dilluted versions of black womanhood and image is as important as the music itself to many. The dancing twins will always get more male attention than Tamar with their accessible look.

A lot of fans here just have problems with Prince finally embracing his black roots of course in recent times. Both via song lyrics and who he surrounds himself with.


Talk about it,Special Ed!! I hope everybody got this. This should be easily understood, and there is no reason to be in denial about it!!!
. I'm sure there are people who are fired up, angry that you "went there" on this issue, but I am glad that you did.....
The road you choose to walk in this life, is a road that leads to the next.....

She has potential...but she's no Sheila or W&L

Oh come on now. Sheila, Wendy nor Lisa can sing like this girl. People, stop hating on Tamar, she actually has talent. If you don't think so you need to go re-watch the SNL performance because she can sing.


I did see the SNL performance of BL&B & was underwhelmed by her lack of range vocally. When she tried to hit those high registers i actually cringed because she sounded so strained. She's a marginal talent at best. Not everyone can hear that unfortunately. Prince's track record regarding prodigy's continues..

Look, I'm sorry if I made an insensitve comment before but it just seems like this Prince hates black women idea is very important to you. I'm not black so it's not like I am desperatly wanting it to be true that he likes all kinds of women. I really just think he does. Obviously he likes physicaly attractive women...but really what man doesn't? Maybe he does like black women but like alot of other black guys they think that white women are eaiser and they can manipulate them more. Who knows? It really doesn't bug me whoever he chooses to date. It's his life. You shouldn't take it so personaly.
