I sometimes wonder about entertainers who don't make it in show biz. Does it ever occur to any of them that they could get an education and pursue another career?

I think in years past this was the case but with the advent of reality shows, you can be pretty mediocre and have a pretty decent life. There are plenty of reality stars out there who are probably in need of a better education but as long as they are getting those paychecks, I suspect that they will hang on to their crappy shows for as long as possible.

I hope she has sense enough to invest since has-been pay doesn't offer a retirement plan or medical coverage.

She can just join the ranks of underemployed Americans who can't afford health cover or retirement Blame that on Congress

To be fair, it seems like Mayte got royally screwed in that divorce. I mean, look at all these other women's mansions and then look at Mayte's poor little rancher. I don't blame her for keeping some stuff and selling it off. Plus, seems like she was hung up on him for a very long time. I don't think she should have taken him for every penny or anything, it's disgusting when women do that, but here are all these other Hollywood exes and they are set for life and when Mayte wanted to adopt Gia, the other women were saying stuff to her like, "Will you be able to afford this? School lunches are expensive!" SCHOOL LUNCHES? And these other women live in compounds for godsakes! So, so what if she sells some crappy ass paintings of Prince and gives the money to an animal shelter!

Prince gave her that huge Villa in Spain.. she sold it.

What bothered me was she kept repeating that her baby died while simultaneously complaining that she didn't have purple rain money. Reinforcing the fact that one has nothing tondo with the other. Prince don't owe her child support. Apparently she didn't peruse allimoie(sp?). It sux about the kid. I understand honey...but you made your bed(outside of what happened with the kids).

The "Purple Rain" comment was so annoying to me. I understand her still being upset about the baby, too, but I can't imagine being bitter about that fact and it causing her to miss out on child support!

Last weeks episode of Exes. She said something to Will Smith's ex about having "Will Smith money" and everyone went in on her hard. Then talking to (I think) R. Kelly's ex later she was saying that she has it harder than the rest because she doesn't get the child support the rest of them do. :/ It's probably on vh1.com if you want to watch it.

Yeah considering the circumstances, I think it would be really wacko to bring up the issue of child support. I dunno, that's weird on a number of levels.

Bambi82- Yeah, I know he gave her the villa in Spain. I mentioned it in an earlier comment. I'm just saying she got nothing compared to what the other women on that show received from their exes.

Did Prince and Mayte have a pre-nup? I don't remember if I've ever heard anything about that. She should really put the brakes on getting famous for being Prince's ex-wife. Seems sightly desperate on her part.

Did he give her the villa in Spain? Wasn't there a thread about prince selling a villa in Spain or is that a different villa? http://1041jackfm.cbsloca...ife-mayte/

I was under the impression back then that during the process of them separating/getting divorce that he gave her that house in Spain. I'm almost certain that's how the timeline goes.

I thought he gave it to her to...but then i also saw these threads and articles about him selling it now. I dunno what's up. I figure its mattes and she's sold it, but its being sold again maybe?

What makes it confusing is that at some point, they were just "spiritually separated" or something like that right? I think it was another two years before they actually finalized the divorce. I could be wrong. I always wondered why he bought her a house in Spain instead of the U.S. but it would have been community property right?

if Mayte wants more money,why doesn't she simply do another album? In the late 90s,a few years after she released Child Of The Sun,there were pics of her in the studio with producers Full Force,working on new tracks.She should continue on that path.Yes,I know she can't sing but does it matter? J-Lo can't sing for beans and she's a multi-millionaire.Even Carmen Elektra is working on a new album.At least by recording an album,Mayte will be working for money in a respectable way,as opposed to being on one of these awful Hollywood Exes shows.

LOL @ another album. Yeah that would probably only sell a few copies, if that Yeah, when it comes to JLO she can't sing but Marc Anthony is a powerhouse singer. I used to hate hearing their duets because JLO ruins it. She's very entertaining on stage but she can't sing at all. Oh, a Carmen Electra album? Lemme hide while I can!

Yeah, I've wondered the same thing? IDK, I just remember it being said that he did give it to her and she later sold it. I think it was mentioned on the Exes show she's on, too. (don't quote me on that, but I'm pretty sure..)

Yeah she's been off the purple train for a decade and a half. She needs to just focus on what SHE can build for herself.

She shoulda used it to attract wealthy suitors...lure them in...marry the ones who r silly enough to do it without a prenup and then go ahead and steal they money. Also she could have occasionally taken steps to slip uo on her birth control followed up by feining a distaste for abortion.

this is a well known, tired and true process...

She wouldnt be bitching about the costs of babysitters....

I don't think the right quote from me was on your post. But, remember she dated Tommy Lee for a while, so that was her attempt to stay in the limelight right? I thought when she was doing that dance reality show that she was dating some rich tycoon from the Middle East or something.

it was my quote, i had said that. For some strange reason it tucked your handle in there...i unno why...fixed it tho.

Mayte needs to let Prince go. And move on with her life...

I figured as much

Tonight she talked about how she heard a rumor that Prince is dating a 19 year old. She briefly talked about how that was gross. Well he dated her when she was 16?! She shouldn't be surprised. Although I agree it would be great if he dated someone who wasn't still in their teens.

Maybe she's referring to that kid who was the star in the "Breakfast Can Wait" video. How in the world is Mayte gonna talk smack that way? Wasn't she 16 and Prince was somewhere in the 29-32 age range?

When is the last time Prince has even acknowledged Mayte? Stating that she heard a rumor that Prince is dating a 19 year old is pretty bush league. Without any proof (and none of ours or her business), she's spreading conjecture, which is pretty irresponsible considering folks who watches this show will take it as gospel because of her former ties to him. A year ago, she got pissy because he made her pay like any paying customer to see him in concert and after seeing how entitled she comes across, it's about time for her to grow the hell up. All she does is bitch about not having the money and power her ex husband worked his ass off to amass by constantly putting his talent to work. If she initially went on this reality show to establish her own identity apart from Prince, then obviously she has had a change of heart. Lastly, it's totally fair to judge her as a person because she signed on to commercially exploit her life on national tv. Don't complain about bad editing and privacy when you are more than willing to sell your bullshit to the highest bidder.

I saw that too. I think she was referring who you are talking about. I think Mayte is so pathetic. Seriously, the only reason she would know or speculate that and try and put Prince on blast is if she was perusing the org. She's a hater and seem like she's always going to be hung up on Prince.

Yeah really, you'd think she'd be somewhat embarrassed by talking about a man she hasn't been with in 15 years! I would think after a while she would kinda get herself together and just get to the top on her own.
