The messenger who was very much apart of the cause among Lord knows what and who else. What exactly do you want fans who strangers to this man to do? I think we all know Prince has been surrounded by enablers (that seems to be the word of the week) and yes men, and it will take someone in his innercircle to get to him and try to help him see the light, as SHE used to be, but she didn't do that did she?...she's doing now, after the fact living off his money and on facebook. Again, I just think there are more sincere ways to help him if she will wanted to.

With all that considered, she could be working on her repentance, for her role in the matter. I honestly do not know nor do I care.

What I do know is...I cannot and will not...blindly dismiss what Manuela said because I know that I've known for quite some time that something is very wrong and Prince's "inner circle", including her happy ass for a good bit there...are major factors in that and it's not helping him...at all.

"What exactly do I want fans who are strangers to this man to do?"

Sincerely love him by NOT being afraid of him!

When his shit stanks...say so!

Unless you know him PERSONALLY, you can't say you KNOW something is wrong with him, how irresponsible! You're assuming something that really isn't evident in his performances or pictures in the last year or so.

I was going to say he looked fine to me at the two shows I went to last month maybe she's referring to all the lawsuits and him not paying his bills......

I don't know if that's what she meant, but his not paying bills is nothing new nor do I think it indicates anything is wrong, especially since he recently cleared up the other stuff.

One possiblity is that he doesn't want to pay the lawyers as much as they want because they didn't win the other lawsuits, don't you think that sounds like him? Who knows, he could be disputing the billed hours or something like that, but I imagine he'll eventually pay up.

Manuela knows him quite PERSONALLY, I would say. The only thing I'm assuming is...she would KNOW far better than I do...exactly what's going on that I know, I've been seeing as evident in his behavior and actions...when the matter goes beyond his "performances or pictures"...for the last several years.

Jesus, Prince changes from day to day, you don't think he's a different man now than he was then? Unless they are in current contact, which I highly doubt, Mani doesn't know shit about him nowadays...oh wait, maybe you're right, she does have that stalker thing down pretty good!

Instead of waffling around implying stuff, what, specifically, do you see NOW that's so concerning? Not years ago, when most of us do assume he was having hip problems.

Wow why on earth would she say that...Prince isn't her problem now..Eric is. These ladies from Jill to her.. they just seem so preoccupied with him..They need to move on and let his latest honey worry about that. Then to post and erase a few nano-seconds later...LAME.

Interesting though, I thought he only used drugs that one time in '88. I haven't read much of his biographies so I dont know much about his drug use past or present.

That's the truth! They were bitten by the Princey bug...once you are, you can't get the little man outta your head! They are no exception. John Meyer said something like Jessica Simpson was an addiction to him... I'd say the same thing is true for Prince.. he makes the ladies addicted to that good loving and then when its over, they can't move...

My older sister always asks me whenever I talk to her and we get on to Prince and his women and how he dresses them, changes their names, etc. "What the hell does Prince have over these women? He must be one helluva lover!"

maybe the revolving door also has to do with the women developing concerns for him being a coke head freak? once they get too concerned they get the boot....

She deleted her now-infamous post, and there's a bunch of folk on there shaming her.

REALLY?? Folk are truly somethin else.

I wish she'd just post a big FUCK YOU and unfriend these assholes.

Oh My Now that we can agree on! That comment...

Some days I come to the org and some days I read books. Why would I need a facebook? Actually, I never understood the purpose. Pick up the phone and call somebody or better yet, email or grab a pen or pencil and write. Call me old fashioned, just call me.

Ok, I have all of these FB friends where the majority of those are people who are playing the same FB game(s) as me. The saddest part is when you have a family member or two who you're FB friends with and you don't talk no more on FB than you do my any other means. So, I only go on FB to play the games and that's as social as I get.

Because, when its all said in done, how many of those 1000+ FB friends of yours are going to visit you in the hospital? Just asking...

yeah thats wut myspace is for now...i play games on it only

mani definitely picked the wrong person to compare prince too. sheen is a cokehead. why would u compare someone not into coke to him?

i don't wanna think that that is why prince is so broke. aside from all the custom guitars,and outfits a coke habit?

does make you think though......

I would hate to think that he has a drug problem, but if it comes out that he does; I wouldn't be surprised. If he does have an addiction, it could have stemmed from the medication that may have been prescribed for the hip problem that he had a few years back. It's real easy to get hooked on prescription drugs. That's what happened to a lot of other famous people and I'm sure a few regular folks as well.

When I see Prince...NOW! I see a man that is a mere empty shell...of the absolute, incredibly talented and gifted, musical genius that he so rightfully...is supposed to STILL be....yet...isn't. By any stretch of the imagination...nor amount of rationalizing...enabling denial.

I don't know why because I'd really love not to fucking care! Unfortunately, in spite of my best efforts...I still seem to DO care , very much so and more than the people eagerly enabling what could...left unaddressed or even contemplated...end up as his self-destruction. That's what's so concerning to me!

Hmmm, still not sure what you mean, do you mean you think he looks ill, thinner than usual, not moving well or do you mean in a more esoteric way of he's not acting the way you think he should be acting?

btw...if you care so much about him like you say you do, then maybe you should quit shooting such hateful energy at him all the time.

watching ET. no i didn't see the charlie sheen interview but the footage they are showing on here..WHOA. talk about one foot in the grave.and mani comparing prince to him? charlie looks a fucking zombie on the walking dead.

prince looks healthy. not like a zombie. but does charlie wear makeup like prince? nope. yeah pain killers wouldn't shock me but coke would.

"hoping never to see prince on 20/20 doing a charlie sheen-esque rant. so sad."

How many years as a ex has it been now? Granted I believe Prince has his issues, but unless somebody's going to come straight out a be specific then this just comes off as smary, catty and snake-ish to me. It ain't nobody I'd want to "follow" or "friend" anywhere. I guess it's working for both of us.

i dont think prince would be on coke.pain pills for his hip.....possible.but what i always belived he might be on is antideppressants meds.why do i think this he has had alot of things happen in his life.lossing his baby,parents didnt a brother or sister pass away,plus divorces,and i am sure a whole bunch of other things we will nevfer know about.i dont know,i just always thought he might be on that type of meds.

j/king but I am beginning to wonder if the Eric B snub by NAACP in deference to Prince's appearance has anything to do with Mani's poison post about Prince.

Just think, for a girl who loves the limelight... she had to watch the award ceremony at home on tv like the rest of us. She probably bought a dress and the whole get up, only to find out that she was uninvited.

are you talking about BET?

I don't think most ppl paid attention to the part of the Sheen interview where it was stated he passed a drug test and was not high during the interview...

Sheen is either a straight up narcissist, or he's Manic Depressive, a/k/a Bipolar (but, clearly, in a manic state).. His ego is out of control

-- and so has Prince's been at times.

If Mayte or Sheila or Lisa or Wendy or Jill or Nona or Susannah or Tyka had posted it, would ppl be so up in arms over it -?

Oh sorry, it was the pre-grammy Essence Black woman event.

Wrong event, but the end result the same. Eric B was invited... which I am assuming Mani was preparing for a night with paparazzi and then Eric was uninvited.

I would have been pissed off! She probably was. Someone earlier in this thread wondered if Mani's FB comments were precipitated by that uninvite.

yes, Essence..

well, her comment this week.. I doubt it had anything to do with the Essence bs; she already had a veiled comment (no last name used) on that last month when it happened.. doesn't make sense to bring it up again

-- unless they were not invited to the naacp image awards (and I'm having a hard time w/the notion that anybody at non-profit organization such as that making a call to exclude ppl just for Prince)

since sheen wasn not high during the interview, I think she was just comparing egos..
