OH YEAH !!!!! and it was pretty cool !! Don't you think he kinda looked "Princely" in some shots and then when he was looking at the crowd of Girls he sorta looked more "Morris Day" !!

Was a bit of good fun, watched both shows tonight, I like Chris Rock - He's funny.

"Why don't you go as Prince"

"Who is he"

"You know" "The Guy who sings that song, what is it? little red corvette"

..... lol

Yeah,I thought the kid who plays Chris looked quite like him at times,he had the eyes thing goin on. Every week I wonder if there will be any Prince music on the soundtrack but so far I haven't heard any,correct me if I'm wrong. Also,I didn't realise that in last weeks episode the guy who played the criminal lodger was actually the guy who played Prince's father in Purple Rain. Wonder if there will be any more links to P as the show progresses.

I know that I have seen Chris Rock live on TV and he has referred to Prince in some of his sketches, I think CR is one of those Celebrity Prince fans ??

I recall Lenny Henry once saying in an interview that he was in a McDonalds eating a Burger in the US and Prince apparently came up to him and said "Hey you're that Lenny Henry Guy" and Lenny said he was like " omfg " Cuz Prince knew who he was !!!

I will certainly be watching it this coming sunday as it is an 80's night on Channel 5 and I am a sucker for the 80's..... razz

Stephen A Smith also mentioned Prince and the Carlos Boozer incident on Friday. Steve loves Prince also.
