Prince at McDonald's .....i thought i read somewhere that he came in a McDonald's as he was on tour in london in the late 80,s or early 90,s i think ...and said to the people in the resturant that he would pay everyones bill...then realizing that he only had dollars in his wallet and they said they could not accept dollars...is this true just cant imagine this because at Mcdonalds you always pay before you get your food i dont know how he could pay the bill when there was no bill to pay ...

My favorite moment of the BBC Documentary on Prince, when he was unknown - unsigned & broke ... He used to go into McDonalds and just smell the food because he was so hungry.

Thats focus to follow your dream! He kept on that path and now look at him!!!

Yeah, I remember that, and he talks about how his dad once told him " If anything ever happened to you, it would be the end of me' and that's the first time he realized his father loved him,. by then he had made purple rain, how sad.

Here's one for U...

I Got Rosie Gaines Autograph at McDonald's
Right place, right time..i guess

Prince is a Loving Generous Man and Goregeous too

u know u wrong!

I read a story once during the Lovesexy Tour they stopped at Mcdonalds and while they were ordering security let the air out of the papparazi's tires so when Prince & Co. left, they left the papparazi behind.

I seem to remember reading a story about a fan in Europe/UK who was able to sit and chat with Prince when his tour made a stop at a McDonald's -- this was somewhere around 1986-1989, tho I seem to recall it was during the Lovesexy tour

...i just knew that one story ...did not know there where so many about McDonald's...WOW!!! PETA would have had a field day with him and Sheila E,s Fur fetish back then..

That poor guy. I'd have bought him a Big Mac. (they had big macs in the 70's right? I'm not sure cause I was born in the 80's)


Was Prince really that poor growing up? I guess I never thought about his childhood or anything.
