Yeah you do make a good point there. So wonder why she and P are at odds now? It has to be something else.

Y'all sure Sheila isn't bitter or jealous or need to get a freakin life, since she and Prince are at odds?

Well I'm sure they contacted Prince 2 make a comment. But he refused. Just like he did with Ray Parker JR. They cut out a whole segment about Prince on his "Unsung". It was a very good unknown story about Prince. But Prince is a very private person. He doesn't like people revealing anything about him.

In other words, he doesn't want it to be known that Ray helped him built his home studio...

Want folks to think he did it all by himself

Sheila has been saying her and Prince had a relationship for years. She first said it on The Arsenio Hall Show. That was in the 90's. She has even went as far as saying they were engaged at one time...

So were they really engaged then?

I recall an interview in the 90s where Sheila admitted that she and Prince were engaged in 1988.This would have been during the Lovesexy era.She said they never married because Prince "had too many other women hanging around".I wonder if she will talk about this in her Unsung episode.

Interesting. According to Wiki, it says that he was dating Sheila around the same time as he was going with (or engaged to) Susannah.

They were supposedly on and off dating for about 10yrs, and Sheila for the most part has confimed this. They met in 1978 and Prince knew of Sheila b4 they met, he had a lil crush apparantley

Go watch her Way Black When video(its on youtube) She talks about when they first met, and Prince asked her to marry him right on the spot.

Not sure about the engagement thing, but I believe her dad P.Escovedo once said something like, "And to think Prince was almost my son in law"

Also @ the Purple Rain premiere, when Sheila was asked why she came, she said "For Prince"

Dang...let's think hypothetically for a minute, what if he and Sheila had actually gotten married? Hmm....

As magical as it would had seemed, it wouldn't had lasted...unfortunately.

We would be living in a world filled w/ beautiful and incredibly talented musicians, whom would be there off spring, and P & Sheila would be making albums 2gether and decorating paisley beautifully 4 the yearly Paisley Park celebration in there honor

Nah in reality, they would have probably divorced after a years or so. They would still hook up between 83-88, and not much would be different from what it is 2day, except we may have gotten some duet tracks like Erotic City.

I prefer them friends.

Yeah I agree.

So I wonder what projects Sheila has lined up now? I'm guessing she'll say tonight on the show. I loved her stuff in the early 00's with E-Train.

Not trying to be mean but just had to laugh at that commet about Sheila being bitter or jealous or needing to get a life :::

Everytime you look that woman is on stage playing somewhere , for herself , her family , benefits , other artist , award shows . Seems like she have her own life to me without Prince : A true musician , who will continue to do what she does with or without P : or his blessings etc : All his ex-protege's have the right to talk about their own experiences : It's their truth :::

I agree. And that's one of the main reasons why she's been successful in her own right, she didn't stay in a "shadow" but rather ventured out, did things on her own and gained her own independent following.

Wow you still butt hurt over what you perceive to be a slight to Nelson.

Go get yourself some counseling if it's that bad. Get over yourself and grow a set of

balls.

I'm over what Sheila said about the Bowl... lol but I guess folks love to hold grudges.

Yep, I remember that episode of Way Black When. Also, when Arsenio Hall asked her why the engagement was off she said "ask Prince".

That was the Tavis Smiley interview where her dad said Prince was almost his son in law.

It seems like this time she is going to go into more detail about the relationship and I think that's probably what would make him uncomfortable enough to cause a problem.

Sheila is very down to earth and upfront in interviews and I think we will learn about a lot more than just Prince so he should relax and get over himself.

I'm gonna take a nappy poo so I can be wide awake at showtime.

Well he has every right to refuse comment but it's a waste of time for him to get miffed and assume the worst each and every time somebody talks about their time with him because like Wendy said, it was their life too.

I would have loved to hear the Ray Parker story.

Glad Wendy said that . It's their life too and they have a right to speak of thier experiences ::: Almost show time in a few hrs folks ::: Cant wait :
