A terrible airbrushed picture of him wearing lipstick?

What a generous guy.

Still, better than a horrific plastic throwaway boil on the arse like Hot Summer.

xD first thing i noticed!

I feel really blessed to have been amongst those purple people and I got a kick out of the poster.

Thanks to Prince, the NPG and all the special guests who made my Californian trip so very VERY funky.

What's this supposed "history" he set for this run? That Prince tickets were available for $10 at one point in time?

Really? U2 is playing 2 shows at Angels Stadium here in LA next week. They've been on sale for a YEAR AND A HALF and they're still not sold out. They also have the benefit of a recent album with a huge U.S. release and a major marketing campaign.

Prince had none of that. He announced most shows 4 days ahead of time and some shows the DAY OF the performance, and he STILL sold out at least 10 shows. Yes, Angels Stadium holds twice as many people as the Forum, but compare that to Prince's run of 15 shows at the Forum, 2 at the Troubadour and 3 at the Houe of Blues (not to mention the Fresno, San Jose and Oakland shows he slipped in between LA sets).

It's still impressive.

Thanks for the info regarding U2.

Yes, it is impressive.

I USUALLY DONT REPLY BUT THIS TIME I HAVE TO SAY IN MY LEAST RUDEST WAY ........ WHAT FREAKEN DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE IF HE HAS ON SOME LIPSICK OR NOT. PRINCE TOOK THE TIME TO RELEASE THIS MESSAGE TO HIS FANS AND ALL PEOPLE COULD DO IS TALK ABOUT IT .WE SHOULD BE GLAD TO HAVE A GENIUS IN OUR LIFE TIME THAT HAS GIVIN US SOME REAL MUSIC WITH REAL INSTRUMENTS, PRINCE DESERVES ALL THE PROPS AND PRAISE MORE THAN ANY ONE OUT THERE THESE DAYS, ....... I MISS PRINCE WHEN HE DOESNT TOUR BUT IF I WAS HIM AND I PAID ANY ATTENTION TO THIS NONSENSE I WOULDNT TOUR TILL I FELT LIKE IT EITHER, THIS IS JUST WRONG , NO RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUDEGIRL FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!

Hi yo Silver ! I am really into this poster. How nice of Prince to show his gratitude, and acknowledge the give-and-take relationship with his audience. I like the writings mixed into the photo. Very nice. Thank you too Prince !

WOW this thread was supposed go something like this ...

Thread topic: Prince thanks purple people

"Yeah 21nights was great, kudos Prince"

"Pretty cool of him"

"Well atleast we go a thank you"

"Welcome, whats next?"

"Thats it? thanks i guess"

Instead were rambling about his over or under use of lip coloring & make-up, 1 off topic comment and everything goes bananas and turns into fan vs fan arguement. only the on the org

if you think that flyer is anything other than an ego stroking excercise, you're probably gonna be disappointed. As for being annoyed by 'people talking about it', well we're so starved of official news, we'll even talk about gubbins like this... You included

You are right , im so dissappointed , but ill be happy if you tell me what shade your lip stick is ???????? I think that would be offical news!!!!!!! Dont start me......... i dont wannabe RUDE

Erm. ok...

Firsty, I haven't mentioned lipstick once in this thread.

Secondly, I'm a guy (which you can tell by me being called Erik319).

And thirdly, I tend to purchase 'honeysuckle pink' as it works well with my skin tone.

For a thirty year old, you might want to read what you just wrote there, buttercup. And while you're at it, answer your damn phone, it's Mr Pot with an important message.

Yes he does. The only difference is that he applies it himself nowadays. Back in the 80's he let Stevie Wonder put it on for him:

I remember a time that when someone said "thank you" the appropriate response was "you're welcome". I guess manners didn't make it into 2011.

Well done. You've really mastered the skill of taking a punchline and rewording it to remove all humour.

Hope you have a great day at work too. Say hi to the Colonel for me.

For goodness sakes calm down people. Who would have thought a thread about Prince thanking fans, would have turned into this mess? Can't you guys just appreciate the thanks and let it go? Next thing you know someone will start a thread complaining that Prince never thanks his fans. Just can't seem to win. Maybe it's time for the mods to jump in and bring this thread back on board. Geez.

I like a woman who knows how to use capital letters to greatest effect. You're very talented! Maybe Prince could hire you to write the copy for his next "Thank you" message.

So if that is the case why did the photographer not fix that because he damn sure "fixed" all of Prince's wrinkles? I don't get it why Prince cannot pay a good photographer .

NO THANK YOU PRINCE, YOU'RE WELCOME

Jehovah encourages a lot of makeup, all the gentlemen at the Kingdom Hall wear it.

A lot of makeup, and bicycles.

If I didn't know who Prince is, I would assume he was a Vegas magician..er 'Illusionist'... from this photo.

That is so messed up, but I coulden't help

as one of the male fairies on the HBO show

True Blood
