The Penguin

"“The Penguin” is also credited with backing vocals on “Housequake,” but this was in fact a toy, a stuffed animal, which was used as a practical joke prop at Paisley Park. Because of Prince’s unusual working hours, it wasn’t uncommon for recording engineers to doze off every now and then. The joke was to take a snapshot of the “victim” asleep with the stuffed penguin in his or her arms."

Nice story.

No matter how tired I am, I can't imagine dozing off while Prince is recording Housequake in front of me smile

clairew1975	Interesting.... Someone put a penguin on the stage at The Revolution reunion - I thought it was her but maybe there's some truth in your story and it was one of the band??? However, Mrs G does have an obsession with actual penguins - her Twitter is full of them. I really dislike her referring to Prince as a damn penguin....he's a man NOT a bird!

iwantcandy	There is no way in hell Jeannette accessed the stage at the Revolution reunion to put a damn penguin up there. That was someone else's doing and the Housequake story makes the most sense. If it was Jeannette she would have 150K tweets right now instead of just 100K because she would have tweeted 50K times about it.

iwantcandy	She posted another screenshot of a supposed DM from him on Twitter... I don't know if I'm allowed to post it here or not. But there are several details that lead me to believe it's fake.

MrNelson7	OK, what is her Twitter link? I must know who this woman is.

But there are several details that lead me to believe it's fake. I agree. I saw that and thought, for a number of reasons, that it was absolutely fake.
