The "Blind Item"

Okay... I've been thinking about the blind item that was posted on the website, Blind Gossip on April 18th. For those of you who didn't see it, it was an item saying that a VERY popular black entertainer who had been in the news recently had full blown AIDS and would be dead by summer. They said that his "religious friends" had convinced him to stop taking his medication and then they gave all kinds of clues as to it being Prince. They said he would be dead by summer. And suppossedly, someone "very close" to Prince contacted them to tell them this. Then, Prince dies three days later. Okay, so, I have been thinking about this and what has me freaked out, isn't that he might have had Aids (although, I would feel so horrible for him if this is what he was dealing with privately) but the fact that, if it turns out that he DID NOT have Aids, and died from something else, that someone close to him predicted his death. I mean, they wrote it as a definite. That he would be dead by summer. I went back to Blind Gossip recently and saw that they have since said, "Yes, we were talking about Prince". I guess we'll have to wait and see what the autopsy says, but, if he died of an accidental drug overdose, how was someone in his camp sure this was going to happen?

Might be something to it. I'd hope not, but if true, someone needs to go b-slap the JW church crowd, starting with Larry graham. Damn near derailed his music, now talked into not taking meds. Ugh... Tiring

We have to take the whole "someone close to them" gave us the info thing with a grain of salt. that could be true, could not be true, could be a grey area.


The autopsy will clear everything up either way. and if there were some kind of crazy breach of trust, well it wouldnt be the first time.

Whoever the turncoat was that released this information, if true, needs a slap as well. They weren't friends of his at all. If there's any truth to this, I'm so sorry that Prince decided against taking medication. God heals in a number of ways, including medication and related treatment.
