I've talked with Andre a lot over the past 15 years - even been to his house - and he's a nice cat. Always has been since we first spoke. Maybe you just got him on a bad night???

That's great. Where was that at?

I was about 18 years old, and my friend is in the music business. she knew how much i loved Prince and wanted to meet him.... She invited me to watch him film his video "cream" at union station in down town LA. He was sitting in his limo and my pal who has known since the early years asked him if i could say hello....to my surprise he said yes!!!!!

I nearly died

He was very nice and quit.....I was shaking so badly.....Thought I was going to have a heart attack!!!!! he asked me why i was so into him. I said i dont know. He looked and said "good enough for me".....i dont think i slept for days

hmm, the family jamm in la was like the ultimate place for meeting the greats. even if they were older and very mellow. jill jones, was lovely. kind of weirded out by how much i loved her and knew about her but was cool. wendy &lisa lovely...susanah melvoin didn't talk to her but she was smiling at my excitement of meeting her sister. and she winked at me during the roxy performance in la in 1998. sheila e. nice and cool. met her at the celeb in 02. what's great about these people in their older years is that most of them are on some new spirtual journey and since no one is on their shit as much as before they are welcoming to talk to. bobby z. an idiot. still self involved and conceited. morris day and jerome. nice but in a this is the 1,000,000 prince fan i have met today. in fact morris poses the same in pictures with everyone. carmen electra is a doll. of course when i met her i went straight into how much i loved the get on up video as opposed to her more recent non-prince work. she was adorable and hugged me and now i really love her. mayte was an idiot everytime i saw her. one time i followed her into a coffee bar in nyc and her big scary sister tried to scare me off. when she saw i was genuine and was only trying to find out about a dave letterman afterparty mayte was less scared. i'd give any any anything to meet and chat w/ vanity, jesse johnson, sheena easton, apollonia. oh i forgot you know who was really really cool. tony m. yes, the rapper. he was cool and danced with me at a party in nyc. actually all of the npg at that time was pretty nice. michael b., etc.

I met Sheila E. about two years ago and she was so humble and so sweet. First of all, pictures do her no justice! The lady is drop dead gorgeous and just a wonderful soul. We hugged and told her how much of a fan I was of her work.

I also got the opportunity to talk to Denise Matthews by phone around the same time and found her to be a very intelliegnt and sincere person. Very good person and I was overwhelmed to have that chance to speak to her.

i met brown mark at the jamm
he was nice

I had a signature from Morris, Jerome & Monte in a wracka stow in 1996, don't know if it count cuz we didn't actually talk more than that. Morris was OK but he looked really bored 2 b there, Jerome & Monte seemed 2 enjoy it.
I exchanged a few words with Rhonda after a show in 1998, but i didn't want 2 behave like a harrassing fan so i didn't dare 2 go more than "it was a great show, etc..." i regret it know cuz she was very nice & modest, so i guess she would have had agree 2 talk a bit more.
I also was just near Ophelie Winter in a 1993 show. I was an ugly 16 years old teenager back then (don't b afraid, now i'm OK - lol) & she was a taller-than-me-famous-bombshell with an even taller cute black friend so i didn't dare 2 say a word.

I used 2 b shy at the time
