Unfortunately, doing this isn't going to help you to ever actually meet Prince.

Bottom line. lol

I'm not trying to meet him by doing this. Who knows I may not even be able to attend the ceremony depending on when it is. My goal is to get a star. That is all.

You are not going to get 1,000,000 + signatures from just this site, but of course you already know that.

Have you not thought about posting on other Prince sites?

I'm sure there are others.

What about asking your local radio station to mention it, you could send them an informed email, asking them nicely to announce your intention on air, you never know.

Thank you for the suggestions. We've started a twitter and a facebook. I will update the first post with the links when I get home.

Prince had better know the answer if he ever wants to become a King.

If you manage to get 25.000 $ and by any change P is not interested in the star,

I suggest the money goes to:

- shelter houses for abused women or

- an organisation that teaches illeterate women to read and write

I would apreciate your efforts sooo much when the money could go to a cause like that!

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

There has been talk about this in the past, if I am not mistaken it was at paisley park at a celebration I attended. I was informed that the maintenance and upkeep on these stars has to be paid for by the stars themselves. and since everyone knows him already he felt that it would not be a good idea to spend money on it.

Ok, well he's about one of the only people around here who has a 'line' to Prince, so if he says Prince doesn't want it, I'd take that as coming from the horse's mouth.

It is a nice thought and doesn't hurt to try and collect signatures, but there's no way P would pay the upkeep on something he doesn't even want.

Hello All

If you are interested in signing the petition we've started to get Prince a Hollywood Star please head on over and sign The Petition.

Our goal is to get enough signatures to earn the money for a star. Each signatures gets us a penny. If we can not get into with Prince or his rep to accept the nomination, all proceeds will be donated to charity. Please note, we are only asking for signatures and not any thing else. Also you can post this graphic anywhere to pass the word.

[img:$uid]http://i55.tinypic.com/2ii7onl.png[/img:$uid]

Thank you for your help. Prince deserves this.

Sidebar: I am fully aware that he "may not" want a star, or he "might not" even show up to the ceremony and if that's the case, I guess we will find out. I haven't seen anything from anyone who's attempted to do this in the past, nor have I seen any interviews where he stated he didn't want one. So if you are coming here to post that, make sure you have some info to back that up. Thanks. wink

What we are doing is kind of exploratory to see the response.

We know that Prince can be and is very particular with certain acknowledgements.

But this is just as much for us as it is for him.

We know that this might go nowhere but there is no harm in the gesture.

We are going with it and having fun with it (as should everyone). The time and effort is ours and is as harmless and as time consuming as the other forums on the org, twitter, facebook. Trust me there are worse petitions out there. Hahahahahaha

All in all this is meant to be fun and to show (even though it may not result in a star) our affection for everything Prince has done. Just like when we post our favorite lyrics or ask why Prince hasn't released his vaulted material or even rant about some of the strange-ness that comes from him and his camp.

So sign the petition or not, it's cool. We understand either way.

Thank you all

A man came up 2 me, smile in his eyes
He told me I was a saint
So I'm quittin' my friends much 2 their surprise
I can't live up 2 the picture that they paint
Ah somebody help me, I'm losing control
I guess I'm just a sucker in the dream factory oh!!

wave Hi. Love your blog...

Yeah, I think people are just trying to say that Jseven is an unofficial mouthpiece for Prince (no joke; whether people dig him or don't), and he's telling you - from Prince - that he doesn't want it and if it's offered Prince will NOT accept it. So, if you still want to give to a charity, you should probably call it that - "Donate To Charity" - instead of a Walk of Fame petition, because a charity donation is all this is going to end up being.
