Mayte,Mani,Bria, .... Those poor girls didn't do anything to deserve so much gossiping and needs to be respected. Bria is the lady Prince wants to have around these days, so be it. Let her have fun, be happy, smile and still look beautiful. None of us is perfect and rare are those who happily stayed with the same person all life long. Would it be any interesting if I talk about my neighbor's relationships? No, so leave them alone and enjoy what Prince and entourage want to give.

Peace

Hi Malbena

I like him too.

I don't have a problem with Bria and Prince being an item I hope they are very happy 2gether, she seems very demure and ladylike and so does he. hahahaha. Sorry.

No, my problem is being coerced in2 buying an album of songs that sound like Beyondme did them and him telling me she's talented.

Maybe she is in Ur bedroom P but not in the studio.

You're funny!

Bria should just marry him already and accept this is going to be what she'll be remembered for.
I'd marry his ass and start me a lil boutique or side bidness (for after the divorce).
Embrace that shit.

johnart said:

Wow. Damn.

I accept her. Sometimes I think she has got beautiful hair, clothes, voice or smile...I only hate her make-up
Lovely? Maybe. Gorgeous woman? Not for me. Can she sing? NO!

I'm so sad that we didn't hear or see her live.
I just can't get it WHY she did that album
when she don't wanna sing it.

ouch

She probably did/does want to sing, but Prince is the one in control. Maybe he wants he to be "seasoned" before she goes public so people won't be talking shit
and dismiss her too early (like they already have). Give the girl a break already! She's fine and I love her cd! Before U make any judgements, let her do her thing (if Prince lets her!)

Just had the thought of she will never going out to sing, because
maybe SHE just don't want to.
It seems like she's doing alright without singing,
she smiles all the time, walking by his side hand in hand.
Maybe this album was just made for fun (she said in an interview, that she
was suprised he put her cd into his lotusflower packet.)
So what does that mean? She never wanted to come out with her music?
She said, it was enough making music with him ....
Why is she his protogee when she don't wanna do something with her music?

And when Prince don't want to let her sing he needs a good reason for.
But I can't see a problem within.
Could you explain that to me, why he could say to her: "you have to wait for your time to shine girl"! ???

I've never met her. I don't know her but in my she seems cool. Still makes me wonder is Bria a nickname or an abbreviation? Hang in there Reminds me of a song Prince sang "Style". Yeah, like that

Billmenever said:

I like the name Prince gave her,too.
Bria is a cool name. Brenda is maybe too usual..whatever

Everyone needs to get off the "she hasn't performed live yet" thing. So what? I can count on one hand the number of singing only proteges that I've seen live.

Good Question (lip synched)
Apollonia (live and decent)
Tamar (live and great)

Everyone else was either a television appearance or already seasoned musicians in their own right.

These are the only others I've seen live and they had stage chops long before Prince.

The Time
Sheila E.
Wendy & Lisa
Chaka Khan
George Clinton

Just irritating because it was talked about a protégé and not that she is his new muse

johnart said:

Oh I think as soon as he accepts her marriage proposal she will be quite the little squirrel storing away nuts for the rainy days. Honey I think she's got the whole thing planned out and if she has been working on this man as long as some say then hell, good for her.
