have a sense of humor, Mani!

you can't really believe that i'm manuela. i wouldn't be surprised if she checked out the board, didn't she used to post a lot on another board/gourp?


and i have a sense of humor, i promise.

of course not...

what's that symbol next to your name mean?

I don't know much about Prince's women. Did Prince meet Mani at Paisley Park? I just saw in his liner Thank Yous on Rave cd 1999 that he thanked both Manuela and Mayte. Please enlighten me someone!

Here's some more pics from her site...

Where My Girls At? Conference




Wexner Center For The Arts 16th Anniversary Gala


Free Arts Day


IAPW Founder Manuela Testolini Nelson was presented with an “Outstanding Community Partner” award by the United Communities Against Poverty organization in Prince George’s County, Maryland.

it's the symbol for "OM" which is supposed to get you all conected to the universe or something.
it reminds me of Geroge Harrison that's why i put it up.


RE Manuela meeting prince

she worked at paisley park and eventually became prince's personal assistant. and the next thing we knew they were married and mayte was off in spain or miami. i'm sure there are more informative threads on the matter.

I heard in a yoga class that it's supposed to be the sound of creation. The O is the act and the M is the remaining vibration. I always thought that was a beautiful thought.

luv2luvya thanks for posting those pics - what does it say up on that board....Press, Sex...?

bizarre said:

I have no clue what it says...all I can make out is the word "sex", but the workshop was entitled the “Demystification of the Video Vixen”

bizarre said:

Haven't had a chance to see the updated site as I've been busy...but as a person who works in an field somehwat related to what she's doing, eventually I will get around to checking it out as I appreaciate the asthetic of the site as well as the content....

Also, I don't know if the comment about generalizations was directed specifically to me, but I can certainly still identify with what you were saying: however it's simply that in my experience, being an American that has the chance to travel extensively, and live in many foreign lands thus submerging myself into other cultural traditions and perceptions, I've just simply come to a point where I wouldn't understand why an "Arabic vibe" would annoy anyone... for whatever reason. Nothing more, nothing less...

i hope you don't mind... but i totally agree with that. SAME HERE!

Does anyone notice that Mani isn't wear a ring on her left hand lately? What is up with that?

Just in that one pic where she's helping the kid draw...probably didn't want to blind him with her bling.

She's selling enviromental records!

The whole organisation looks like a cross between The Body Shop and a cult, but I applaud her for not sitting around spending money all day.

a cult of commercialism. i guess that's one way to fund the work.

what does Gamillah, Inc do?
