Say what?

I currently live in Pittsburgh and heard advertised on the radio yesterday that Sheila E. is coming to town--but the entire radio spot was Prince centered. They kept saying "tickets on sale tomorrow for the First Lady of Paisley Park" and talking about how she collaborated with Prince and then at the very end it said "this show will be dedicated to Prince with a very special guest."

What is she up to?

VERY good question.
RIP Prince. We will NEVER forget you. Thank you so much.

I don't know what's she up to either. I used to like/respect her, but not so sure anymore. She put this on her f.b. page a couple weeks ago. I have no idea what it is tho.

WTF?

When the radio spot for her show was playing I couldn't tell if it was going to be some massive Prince tribute or if Paisley Park and his name were being shamelessly inserted to drive ticket sales.

She is on a mission since some nobody in the media called her not relevant, she is retaliating on every front due to this comment. She needs to take advice from Prince, which is......"When a man screams, you must learn to whisper" -Prince quote from Graffiti Bridge

I love Shiela, but she really lets these comments get to her, when really she should have just letitgo. She has nothing to prove imo.

Yeah, I knew that, and knew she photoshopped the revelant movie image I just don't get why she needed to add her book title, names, etc. on the bottom, like it was a real movie. I'm dumb enough that I actually searched for show times.

Linda Perry isn't really a nobody in the media- she's a fairly successful producer in the music industry.

That being said I thought her comments were stupid.

I think Shelia E is feeling some guilt about something. I'm amused that the last I heard from her before he died is that she'd never work with him again and now she is the First Lady of Paisley Park.

I also can't imagine how some of these women feel or will feel if it is revealed he had other children he maybe knew of but kept secret.
Surprise, surprise.
Another treat. Another trick.

I feel like she's trying to capitalize on her association with him..because truth be told..before he died. When's the last time you thought about her in any way?

Right now I can't even deal with this.. just found out my friend died last night leaving behind a week old baby girl and a 6 year old son.. I feel like death is suffocating me... everywhere I turn there it is....

Morris is following in her footsteps with the "Relevant" posts. I was wondering what that was about, now I see.

No disrespect to Sheila but she has definitely aged, she is not as attractive anymore, I am not saying she is ugly buuuuut just saying that out of all of the women Prince had, she was always the lesser attractive, I mean give me a break! If she is trying to make herself relevant? Forget it ...........................her career days are over and has been for quite some time again, all my opinion....

not sure whats up here but sheila has always been one of my fave prince associates. and because chaka and larry are involved, i think it will be ok. prince seemed be close to chaka and we know he was with larry. so if prince trusted them, and they trust sheila, i 'm good.

LMAO STOP! I said the same thing though! She does NOT and has NOT EVER looked good to me. Period. Out of all Prince's women she has always been the lesser attractive and she has aged big time! I mean seems like every since Prince left it's like she is sayin "Hey everybody remember me??? Look at me" GTFOH.........no disrespect but she need to have several seats...............

I am sorry for your loss sad but yes I have noticed that it seems like she wants the attention, I wonder when the last time Prince actually even spoke with her?

Couldn't perhaps the whole promo have been the work of a marketing agency for the venue and have nothing at all to personally do with Sheila? hmmm

And why the fuck are y'all so anti-Sheila all of a sudden? Have I missed something?

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

It's possible, but "First Lady of Paisley Park" seems pretty ballsy.

So if we alert Sheila to this sort of hype she will denounce it and have them change their strategy?

I searched the phrase and couldn't find it anywhere else except on her Facebook page. When she posted about being so offended by the "relevant" comment, several people commented and told her not to listen to anyone because she is the "First Lady."

So either the marketers stole it from her fans or she liked it and started using it herself.

Sarcasm. Odds are she wouldn't change a damn thing. Those $65 balcony tickets have to sell out somehow, someway.

That wasn't sarcasm. I'm being quite serious. Since you seem to have such an issue with it, take it up with her. You've obviously been on her FB page and you already know she has no problem speaking for herself. So why didn't you ask your question there? hmmm

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.
