Hey Robin...did Prince ever mention to you what Vanity was like? (I'm not asking you to tell us intimate detail of their relationship or anything) just asking if he mentioned what kind of person she was and what was his opinion of the way drug use overtook her life?
BTW did you like Vanity 6 when you were younger too? I LOVED them! ![]() | |

Hi robin no we have never met before. at least not that i am aware of. After the above happened i did get asked to meet him in hyde park. i never turned up and he did (ooops). he said that he would be in disguise so i might miss him. It didn't really make a lot of sense at the time and having been at the NPG store in london and knowing that he can be notoriously late i just figured he wouldn't be there. Why would he turn up in the first place. I learned afterwards that he was filming a video there, which turned out to be the video for "come on" where he was dressed like an old man, then it made sense what he had said about not recognising him, although when you see the video you still recognise him anyway. I remember been on the coach coming home getting a message saying 1. i was forgiven and 2. hope to see you again. and that was that. i will probably never meet him again but i guess i was just an ordinary girl who just happened to be in the right place at the right time. One thing i will say is that i didn't expect him to be funny, he made me laugh, also i think at times he was trying to hyponotise me with his big hazel eyes, which i always thought were dark brown until i saw him. glad to hear from you robin regards to you and your family hayley hopefully you got this in your orgnotes aswell with the photo, not sure if it sent right so posting here too hi robin did you get the org note i sent you with the photo link on it you asked for Business Manager to Cat Glover. | |

SDNafka said: For fuck's sake, are you people totally unable to see the irony here? You all claim to be outraged that anyone be discriminated against on the grounds of race yet Prince, being black, must date a certain percentage of black women to be acceptable ( what is that percentage btw? 20%, 50%...93.87%? How many black women would Prince have had to have dated to make you happy? ). Spotted the irony yet? A white guy can date any mix of races he likes and no one complains yet Prince, solely because he's black, isn't allowed the same freedom - he's gotta fill the quota.
I do realize that the whole light-skinned Vs. dark-skinned thing is an issue in the black community but, come on. For whatever reason Prince, like we all do, developed a set of preferences during his formative years. Its true that those preferences would have been influenced by the pro-light-skinned society he grew up in but...and heres the news flash....its not his fault and its too fucking late to change what the guy is attracted to now! Anyway, I notice he's never dated a bald diabetic Norwegian with a speech impediment....that dirty little bigotted fucker....bald diabetic Norwegians with speech impediments unite!! Prince hates you and your kind....stop buying his albums now! God, I love humans...they're so, like....fucked. Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric. | |

babynoz said: BlaqueKnight said: Regardless, Robin was basically saying that Prince is colorstruck when it comes to the women he dates. No surprise there when you look at his list of women. He may have never said publically that he wasn't black (Robin probably has a better idea of what he says in private than you or I do) but he's never tried to make it undeniably clear, either. Although most black people have always known and never thought he was mixed or something else, ultimately people want to hear HIM say it and he never satisfied that because he seemed to have thought it would hurt his pockets. He's probably right. Still, this is one of the reasons Prince could never be seen as a shining example of a black man. That "Tiger Woods sh*t" just don't cut it with most black folks. When light-skinned negroes iz broke, they's black but when they gets a little change rumblin' in they pocketz, all of a sudden their "other heritages" come out. ![]() I couldn't have said it better. This dynamic is little understood outside of our community. It's not a simple matter of loving someone of another race, which most of us don't have a problem with. It's a whole mind trip experienced to some degree by decendants of slaves throughout this hemisphere and anybody who thinks P is immune to it is probably uncomfortable discussing it or maybe in denial about it because it's Prince.

??? in all fairness Robin, I posted that message over 10 days ago and I was NOT the one who brought up the subject in the first place.
Anyway, MY question is about your artwork, which I love. Have you done any other works and do you plan on doing more in the future? Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

bellanoche said: Hello Power!
HER NAME WAS KIM! SHE WAS ALSO A BACKGROUND DANCER & SINGER IN MY BAND! & THANKYOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS & SUPPORT!Welcome to prince.org. I'm happy that some of the rude members didn't scare you away. It's nice to hear that you are doing well and continuing to pursue your dreams. I sent you an org note, but I don't know if you check them. I just have a question about the "Thieves in the Temple" remix video. Who was the other girl dancing with you and Prince. You all killed the game in that one. It is one of my favorite P videos. It was so funky and different. Whose idea was that? Again, welcome and best wishes for everlasting joy and peace today and always. | |

Hey again Robin, thanks for the response. So who came up with the concept for the Thieves video? Did Prince already have an idea of what he wanted to do or were there suggestions made? Was it your idea to bring in Kim? Had Prince met her prior to the shoot? Was she a Prince fan too? Like I said, you all killed the game in that one. I wish we could have seen more of you and Prince performing together. Also, you said you knew Cat back in L.A. Do you know what she's up to now? In terms of dancers, you and Cat truly brought the best out of Prince. I remember seeing you and thinking how did the girl from Soul Train hook up with Prince. I knew it was you even with the mask on. When I saw GB that confirmed it. You did the damn thing, and I'm not mad at you... ![]() What kind of band did you have? perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

I think you're unique friendship with Prince sounds really cool and a learning experience for sure. He probably felt more comfortable to get closer to you because you were not one of the women who pressured him for something more and just took him as he was. That just shows you dreams really do come true...you prayed to meet your idol and it happened! I can only imagine how exciting meeting Prince would be I have wanted to meet him since I was a kid! ![]() | |
