I also loved when he would come on the tonight show with jay leno. The practical jokes they were playing on each other were funny.
I like prince just being the prince who's just sitting around and kickin it and talking shit with his friends. He really was a funny guy

I've heard that before. I really don't think so though. They had a mutual respect for each. Another media made rivalry. Don't get me wrong, im sure they were quite competitive but still respectful of each others awesomeness.

Lol yes!! Was this the same interview where he said he shaved her down and taught her how to speak? Lol

Haven't seen the sinbad show, but that scene in the Partyman video with the chimp was definitely a case of Prince making fun of Michael Jackson.

I always thought he was using an Elmo voice, making fun of how red Sinbad is. When you look at Mayte she leans around Prince to look at Sinbad and laughs, like an inside joke or something. Then, Prince slaps Sinbad's hand as he is cracking up like " I'm just kidding with you."

His sleepy voice sounded sooooo sexy... But I will stay on topic...

So u don't find humor in the gloriously misogynistic and humor filled line of, "I wanna fuck her, before she get too old...the kinda girl u wanna teach...she's a peach.". It's a variation on the original that would hit the stage occasionally. I love it. I smile and snicker every time I hear it.

"Dudley do no wrong tonight if Nell just let him kick it"

Seriously, who else would take five minutes of a song to make you think pure sex -- in every possible incarnation -- then bring up the idea of Dudley Do-Right and Nell having sex? Makes me laugh every time.

How are these examples of his humor?

? So you don't find humor in those lyrics. Ok

No, I don't see what "funny" in the lyrics.

And example of Prince's humor to me would be how he made the joke about LA Reid to Tavis Smiley. That's more of his humor, the kinds of jokes he would say.

Black Sweat

You can act hard if you want to
This groove will make you sweet
You be screamin' like a white lady
When I count two three
One, two, three!

His making fun of Bryant Gumbels clothes on Today Show ....

went something like this:

"would you wear a blazer"--Bryant

"No" -- Prince (embarrassingly and demurely)

"Would you wear khaki's"--Bryant

"No" -- Prince (embarrassingly and demurely)

"Would you wear these shoes?"--Bryant

Prince then softly mumbles let's see, sits up to see his shoes, sits back down and says "HELL NO"

Flash forward a week or so, he surprise visits Bryant dressed like him and struts to the piano. He even impersonates Bryant saying "Take Care, Bryant".

Funny/bittersweet stuff especially since the first bit came after he talked around his child's death. I guess humor is a coping mechanism.

Yeah, he played Raspberry Beret with new lines, "When the competition goes whacky/ keep on wearing those khakis."

Idk if this has been posted or not but the video of "come on" with prince dressing as old man and riding around in the limo and rolling down his window while strangers were looking at him was hilarious

That ending tho, when he was like he couldn't hold the knife to spread butter anymore...

What a liar you are....

Under The Cherry Moon that entire movie was funny

Movie Star song he did a skit.

Oh I was laughing too when he made his silly facial expressions when Trey Song messed up Purple Rain on Bet Awards. He didnt even hide it lol

Damn I wish Prince made more comedy movies. I am so interesting to see did he create anymore movies in that vault

Vibrator Dialogue always puts a smile on my face.

Data Bank is another good one 4 me. Soo many funny moments. "12 inch! Think it ain't?"

BobGeorge909 said:

That's cool if you find it funny. Perhaps it's a generational difference that creates our different opinions of such lines, since I was only two years old when he released that song.

Beggin Woman Blues makes me laugh

She's a cockeyed woman to
She look both ways at the same time
I don't know what she's lookin at
I just know I'm gettin' tired of trying

Listen...
She ask me for the pepper
When she lookin' at the salt
Everytime I try to guess right,it's always little
Prince's fault

I LOVE that !!! I was dying laughing the first time I heard that.

Me too

Would he have thought this was funny?

Here are two goofy GIFs I made showing Prince goofing off while playing guitar. He could be quite the ham

That's not him goofing off! That's him showing he can play the guitar behind one knee standing on one leg!

Goofing off/doing tricks/having fun, it speaks to his sense of humor AND his immense skill

He did the same incredible move playing Face Down with a Bass on the Jam of the Year Tour. The nerve to pull it off...crazy.
