But some women lie about such things - believe it or not. If she was concerned about bringing Prince to justice or being a champion for abuse, she should have said something when it happened - there would be evidence to confirm her story. The only thing that can be accomplished by bringing it up now is to hurt Prince's image - so intelligent people will think that is all there is to it. SHe actually is doing herself a disservice. She just sounds like a bitter hoochie with limited talent and some looks that Prince banged and left.

that's hateful!!

ok, we all get it, you don't believe that Prince could be an abuser. and any woman who would come out saying otherwise is a "bitter hoochie w/ limited talent and some looks that he banged and left." you do realize he has banged a lot of "limited talent and some looks" females, including both of his ex-wives. if mayte and mani said this about him 25 years from now, would you be so quick to say this about them? and with the exception of sheila, who were any of the women before sleeping with him.

i know that there are some people here with intelligence who had asked if she was even talking about him and if she was...was she talking about him and her?

and there are others here with intelligence who aren't closed-minded to the idea that he could.

i'm not saying that you are ignorant, i don't know you, but right now you represent the reason why some women don't come forward.

at the end of the day, isn't this between the victim and the abuser....whoever they are.

Hi Maria,

I think what some people question is the timing. I don't know about anyone else but I have never heard this story before. Some would think that over 25 years it would have leaked previously....with the Sinead incident....the Mayte incident.....I heard nothing over the course of time, so it does seem a bit suspicious.

I believe anyone has the ability to hit anyone, especially when provoked, so I am not quick to buy or discard.

What I will say is this...if after 25 years this is still eating at her, she needs to seek help for HER sake.

Does anyone remember O'Connor taking back this story. If he did this he was being an asshole but you cannot say something like that in the press and then take the story back.

O Connor deserved to have her ass kicked back then. That hate crap she did back then was uncalled for and most uncool.

Wasn't it Frank Sinatra who said "She deserves a good kick in the ass" after the incident where she tore up a picture of the Pope on late night TV? Her actions were very provocative back then.

She's crazy and it would be easy to dismiss her claims IF we hadn't heard other tales of Prince being an asshole to other associates too.Apollonia has said that,when she decided to leave the Prince camp in 1985,he got all pissed and told her "You'll never make it without me".At one point in the mid-90s,Sheila E wasn't even allowed at Paisley Park.I could certainly see him having an ugly confrontation with Sinead (a strong,free-spirited woman).

This situation is yet another example of how dangerously easy it is nowadays, when emotion clouds your good judgement, to go on sites like FB and make public personal issues that are better kept private.

Aint that the truth
