A Princely hug ??? Anyone?

Hey!

Just curious if anyone here has ever got a hug from Prince ?

Not that he would care to hug anyone who waited in line all day and night in blistering f$#@ing heat to see him!

Just curious! Please share your stories.

yeah! I know he does not hug...just asking!

Didn't get a hug...but did have him open the door and hold it for me as I walked in to a private gathering that he had at HOB in Hollywood. I was with several members of The Time and he was waiting for us to arrive, literally standing at the door (that did open and face Sunset Blvd) and held it open with his butt and shooked the fellas hands and yes mine and softly spoke to us as we walked in "Welcome". That was a great night!

I read a story about a woman who went 2 the ONA concert and they had a souncheck and she went up 2 Prince 2 say hi.She asked him 4 a hug and he gave her one and she kissed him on the cheek.She said he looked suprised and was like "hey,I said just a hug".She later got on stage and Prince called her fine or somethin like that.I cant remember the whole thing but I thought that was a cute story.I believe it 2.
I also read a stroy about a girl asking Prince 4 a hug and he looked at her and stuck out his hand 4 a handshake lol ...thats y Ill never ask 4 a hug.He played her lol

I have posted this a few times be4 but I always like to respond to this just cuz not that many people seem to have gotten that close to Prince....but I did get a hug from him he really didnt seem to mind it was June 21,2001 in Columbus OH remember when he was going to do the Celebration tour well me and my friend went to this club after the concert and Prince showed up did the quick meet and greet and walk thru the crowd go up on stage and thank everyone for coming then he disappeared into the VIP area....well the club shut down about 3am and we decided to go ahead and leave cuz it didnt look like P was going to make another appearance so we walk outside and we see the limo parked and there is like these 6 girls hanging out there and its pouring down rain...so we decide to hang out also about 15 mins later out walks the band and gets on this little bus then few mins after that P and his bodyguard well my friend is real brave and just says "Hey Prince how about a handshake?" well he just like stopped and turned around and walked towards us shook my friends hand then mine then down the line to the other girls...well my friend starts whispering to me to ask for a hug..I was like scared to death...no way he is going to say yes or he might just walk away...well a moment later he is standing right in front of me eyeball to eyeball...I just looked him in the eye and said "Prince can I have a hug my birthday was 2 days ago"...then Prince likes gets this huge smile on his face and he says "Sure" then he just leans towards me and hugged me...then he steps back and says "Now U know ur not supposed to celebrate birthdays!!" LOL!!

Ok so its corny and all..but he was very sweet and polite to all of us and thanked us again for coming and that he hoped we enjoyed the show and he told us to stay out of the rain then off he went..the hug was nice and ladies he smelled so good like lavender and something I can't describe but it was awesome....smile

Are you asking me? If so, yes! I have nothing to hide. P was giving a small party and The Time just performed in Malibu and we were asked to come over to HOB because P wanted to thank Morris and the guys for performing at his Vanguaard award ceremony. We (my husband and I) were just fortunate to be asked to follow since we were with The Time that weekend. I know several of the fellows watch the org...so they know what night I'm talking about:-) Don't hate! It was just a great time to be included and a wonderful experience to see P be himself, not performing but interacting with the guys. He had the Vanguaard video playing as we walked in and just did his thing while we danced to Rashida mixes and he stood on the same little dance floor as us just talking to Morris and the rest is history!

U know once I got the words out of my mouth I wasnt nervous anymore and I know the rule is ur not supposed to look him in the eye but I did and I saw Prince the human not Prince the rock star....about a year later he pulled me up on stage to dance and a week after that I asked him if he wanted to answer my cell phone when it rang doing the soundcheck I was embarrassed at first that it rang but he was all for playing a joke on the person on the other end and of course he held my hand and helped me on stage I was so afraid I was gonna fall with my high heel boots on and bust my azzzz in front of the whole theater...but it was def a few moments in time I will NEVER forget...even now I would totally not be afraid to walk up to him and strike up a conversation thats how confortable I felt around him...it must be our Gemini connection....LOL!!

Yes, I did. smile Back in 1999, when Prince did his PPV special for the Rave unto the year 2000 at paisley park, I was behind Jimmy Jam at the entrance into the main area of paisley when he walked off stage. I told him great show, and (shockingly) didnt ask for a hug, I just gave him one casually by reaching over and I put my arms around him and gave him a big hug. He was very nice and receptive. I was a great night indeed! biggrin
