Ok, so I ran into an acquaintance of Mayte's yesterday and she said that Mayte just finished a movie in New York and is currently filming a movie in India. She then went on to say that she wasn't fond of Prince's new wife and that Mani broke up Prince and Mayte's marriage. And I was like, "wait a minute, did Mayte say that?'" and she said yeah, Mani used to go thru Mayte's things and walk around Paisley Park wearing Mayte's clothes while she was pregnant. Don't know how much is true but damn, if that had been me, I'da kicked Mani's bony ass. Twice.

I do believe a part of that to be true, but not all of it.

prince was a dog...he was tapping other's arses all through out his marriage to mayte..

i wonder if he has changed...i hope so....

Well, I honestly don't know what is true and what isn't. This person was a stranger who struck up a conversation with me because I was wearing a Prince T shirt. Can't imagine why she'd lie to somebody she doesn't even know but hey, who knows? There's a lot of nuts out there who claim to be "in the know".

If I had an "acquaintance" who spread stories like this, I'd sever the relationship.

Do you mean you aren't even sure whether she was an acquaintance of Mayte? She started off as a 'friend' in the thread title, was demoted to 'acquaintance' in the account, and she now ends up as merely a stranger to you and a possible nutcase!

How the hell could I be sure if she was lying or not? I said she was a stranger TO ME. Don't know if she really knows Mayte or not. Didn't seem like a nutcase, but I wouldn't necessarily take her word as gospel either being that I just met her 30 seconds earlier.

Mabye this person WAS a friend of Mayte's and maybe Mayte DID say those things....who knows. But even if she did say those things you have to remember there are ALWAYS two sides to every story. I know if you asked my ex what happened to our marriage you would hear more lies than 50 politicians could come up with. Even though you may think you know her and she comes off as a sweet honest person I can promise you the story she would give you would be very slanderous and full of lies. Now, Im not saying that if Mayte did say those things that she's lying. We have no way of knowing...maybe they are true and that did happen. But it's still just her side of the story. Im sure Prince and Mani's version would be quite different. Who do you believe? Whatever happened, happened, and is over and done...AND it's none of our business anyway.

We could always focus our energy on more compelling matters. For example --

Fellow Fans of John Blackwell:

Like all of you, I am as much in awe of John’s talent and as entertained by his contributions to the New Power Generation as I am heartbroken by his family’s loss.

As you know, John’s alma mater, the Berklee College of Music, has established the
Jia Kennie Blackwell Memorial Scholarship Fund, and is organizing a fund-raising concert on campus in Boston featuring John and his friends, tentatively scheduled for December 11th.

Tickets for the concert, to be held at the Berklee Perfomance Center, are not yet on sale. As soon as I know anything, I’ll pass it along. I hope the rest of you do likewise.

Whether or not any of us end up going to the concert, I hope that all of us are able – through as generous a tax-deductible contribution to the fund as we can afford – to let the Blackwell family know where our hearts are.

Contributions to the fund can be made by check payable to “Berklee College of Music”. On your check, please be sure to note, “Jia Blackwell Fund”. Then, mail your check to the following address:

Think about it. It'll be a better use of your brain cells than some somebody-said/she-said/she-said Mayte/Mani nonsense.

I dont like She-say gossip people add extra stuff

Parts are true cuz she did finish a film called "Glow Ropes" and she is doing a Bollywood movie

As for the clothes thing...that is weird
There was no way I would have another woman in my house

who knows what's really true and what isn't but the allegation of Mani parading around Paisley Park in Mayte's clothes while Mayte was away has been around for years. some fans who used to frequent Paisley parties on a regular basis have claimed to have seen it with their own eyes.

if there's any grain of truth to those rumors, all I can say is one word: KARMA

Uh huh. Well I find it interesting that Mayte's personal body guard at the time did not nip things of this nature in the bud. Please remember the Mojica sisters that Prince hired (and subsequently fired) to watch out for mayte and the baby were around all the time. Not to mention the fact that they (the Mojica women) never said anything about this the whole time they were spilling the beans on damn near everything else that happened with the baby and what prince was supposedly doing, etc.

And karma is a bitch because Mayte pulled a cry, and blubber, issue an altimatum, and get knocked up when she found out prince had been dating Nona Gaye and seeing Carmen Electra on the slick tip.

Ifsixwuz9 said:

"Nip it in the bud"? HOW? by telling Prince to knock it off or telling Mani (or whoever) to get lost or to stop digging through Mayte's clothes? i sort of don't a bodyguard is going to involve themselves that way.



the Mojica sisters were hired *before* the baby was born?

furthermore, what I heard was that this Mani-wearing-Mayte's-clothes stuff went on AFTER the baby had died and while Mayte was away in Spain, so the Mojica sisters were probably gone by then...
[Edited 9/13/04 17:52pm]

TimCalhoun said:

Uh no. At least one of them was around before the baby was born. Otherwise how would either of them know what the heck Mayte was or was not eating and run tell the tabloid rags, which was a huge deal at the time. Furtherrmore according the the person who originally posted the "friend" of Mayte's" said the clothes wearing incidents were while mayte was pregnant.

TimCalhoun said:

Umm by alerting their employer that his wife's personal belongings (and possibly his personal belongings) are being snooped through by another employee. Please remember prince was paranoid as all get out back then.

Ifsixwuz9 said:

Ummm I kind of don't think Mani was the 'typical employee' while she was "employed" by Paisley Park Enterprises, if you get my meaning.

Please remember that working at PP isn't like working at Target or WalMart.

Ifsixwuz9 said:

You're assuming that what this "friend of Mayte's" said is verified fact.

What she said might be erroneous. What I said I'd heard about the clothes wearing incidents might be wrong. I was merely repeating the rumor I'd heard; I can't speak to its veracity.

This whole thread is just idle gossip, please remember that. Even the tabloid crap you keep mentioning supposedly said by the (disgruntled) Mojica sisters isn't verified, definitive fact.

In fact, this gossipy thread is getting too gross for me. I'm out.

TimCalhoun said:

I'm not assuming jack about idle gossip. And that's exactly my point which is why I have a hard time beliving much of what is supposed to come from "a friend of Mayte's",which is what every post that gets put on this site refers to.

And dude remember you replied to me and tried to beat me down about who and what to believe and the rumour that you heard and now you're grossed out. Whatever.

Ifsixwuz9 said:

i wasn't going to deal w/this thread anymore but I just had to respond to this remark.

you claim you're not assuming anything from or about idle gossip but yet you spout off this little gem "And karma is a bitch because Mayte pulled a cry, and blubber, issue an altimatum, and get knocked up* when she found out prince had been dating Nona Gaye and seeing Carmen Electra on the slick tip."

um, so okay please state your very reliable source (I'm so sure) regarding that particular situation. or, did you just hear some other gossip that you're now taking as fact? **coughcoughhypocritecoughcough**

double 'whatever'

and how exactly was I "beat ing you down" about who and what to believe? if that's what you perceive as being "beat down" you must really be some kind of .




*btw, just in case you weren't aware of how things work, it takes two to conceive a child. Mayte didn't 'get knocked up' on her own.
[Edited 9/13/04 20:48pm]

sho is...and if ANY of the rumours r true...mayte got hers and mani just might get hers...

Dus *the Indian film* wasn't shot in India, but in Canada.

Sexymf69 said:

Quite amazing how you feel you have the right to post this on a public forum for all to see, how would you feel if one of your ex's did the same thing. This is what gets me about Prince fans, they feel they should know every little bit about his relationships and to be honest it's prettu damn scary..leave them alone and give them some privacy you scary scary people

starbass said:

Listen, if you're not interested in this kind of stuff, why'd you click on the thread? To chastize us "scary, scary, people"? Shit, I'm not trying to piss anybody off, I just thought I'd share my experience. And I do believe I have the right to post such a thing on a public forum, especially since all involved have chosen to live a public life. Whether you like it or not, gossip is part of human nature. I'm glad you're so above it.

TimCalhoun said:

Ok I guess you weren't around during that time and did not catch Carmen Electra's comments on the love triangle Prince created for himself. Oh and you must have missed Nona Gaye's comments along the same lines. Sorry about that, but not my problem.



Where did I say I had a "very reliable source"? Reaching aren't we?
Hypocrite indeed, since you tried to mount your high horse and act like your rumor had more legs than mine or the original poster's for that matter. Too funny.




Actually I am a pus*y so to speak. I'm a female. And to beat someone down while arguing a point is just an expression it's not meant to imply that a person feels beat up on.





Well shucks, and damn I always wondered how that worked. Thanks for dropping that pearl of knowledge on me.

TTFN,

So far on this thread I have yet to read anything from anyone who was actually there!
