Quincy Jones: "Prince called Michael Jackson 'Camille'" So, I was watching the HipHop Dx vlog at YouTube about the rivalry between Prince and Michael Jackson, which seemed to have been pretty one-sided, juding from the "evidence" presented there. At a Q&A session, the host had asked Jones about this rivalry, and he recapitulated a story about how Michael had invited Prince to his house to convince him to collaborate on Bad. Prince had just finished directing Under the Cherry Moon and brought along a big box of tootsie rolls and cuff links. Michael thought it was some sort of voodoo. Quincy said that Prince called Michael 'Camille'.
I thought this was quite interesting. The names sound very much alike. Did Prince model his Camille character on Michael Jackson? Or was it just a slip of the tongue? Timewise, this would fit in sometime when Prince was experimenting with different configurations of the Dream Factory, Crystal Ball and Camille albums. | |

So... Dave, you've been on the org for 14 years and you still don't know what happens when you put the name Michael Jackson in your thread title? Go on and dance!!!  [Edited 9/1/16 10:08am] | |

He also doesn't know what "recapitulate" means. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
