She has a nice speaking voice. I wonder why he didn't try to get her to sing. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

It's unusual for a ballerina to get so much media attention. Hooking up with Prince was obviously a smart move (which is equally unusual )!
I definitely don't mind seeing pro dancers getting to be in the spotlight. They are true athletes and artists yet never get the same attention as actors or singers. Or sport athletes.

She's nice looking and being the first African American female soloist for the ABT makes her one of a kind. She's a dime a dozen on the arm of Prince but it was a smart move for her to take advantage of the exposure she got performing and going out with Prince. Good for her to quickly get away from him and the drfunkenberry foolishness and get herself a commercial with Dr. Pepper. I first saw her in the Crimson & Clover video. It's because of her I stretch like a ballerina in training. I love the way she kicks her leg up in the video. | |

But did she actually acknowledge that she was "going out" with Prince? Her calendar was amazing, she is go flexible, and considering how she started, kudos to her for her success! I agree she goes have a lovely speaking voice. You know you are in love, when you cannot fall asleep because your reality is finally better than your dreams - Dr Seuss | |

I mean they became friends and Prince escorted her out to a few events and parties. I believe she was honored at one of the events. She seems very nice and yes Misty does have a lovely speaking voice. | |

Yea I really like Misty...a woman of substance and true talent. I thought her and P were cute together. Reminded me of seeing Prince with Troy Beyer back in the day. | |

Yes. This commercial has been around for a long time before this thread was even made. I've seen in on TV months ago. But then within days of the thread, it's on 3rdeye. Don't think it's coincidence. | |

How nice. I don't care for Dr. Pepper but I have pairs and pairs of Misty's ballet slippers (Payless ShoeSource). | |

I am a fan. I liked her on facebook and love her posts. Love her mentorship to Boys and Girls Club. She is etremely talented. Would have loved to see Misty and Prince be a couple. The Leaf Shall Inherit The Earth. | |

She comes across as very intelligent. I would refer to many ex price associates as sexy or talented, but not too many as intelligent and a shrewd business woman. There came a time when the risk of remaining tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin. | |
