Nearly. Cat tore a ligament when rehearsing for Hot Thing so she was on crutches and couldn’t dance so she made the jacket while, if I remember right, in Sweden backstage in the dressing room. Prince loved hers so asked her to make him one too. Helen Hiatt also helped with it aswell. If Cat does the Q&A or however she wants to do it she will probably cover this subject.

Helen Hiatt...the Costume Designer for Prince?

So are there 2 almost matching jackets? One that was Cat's and one that was P's?

Now you read Mayte's book and you know he would take her clothes out her closet. That's not all carefully planned out just for him. So why is it so hard to just take it on what it is that he accepted gifts of clothing from other women??? Heck I've read he'd ask for women stuff off their back and wear it and wouldn't give it back. You really are acting like you have a personal stake in whether or not she made a jacket for him. I thought there was so serious stuff going on.

Huh? Who said Cat gave it to him? LOL

Actually I'm seeing some comments on FB, where she only sewed on a patch??? Cat said on her FB that she made the jacket and used some of her broken jewelry.

PP has that jacket on display and a picture of that jacket on their FB page with Cat's manager making comments on the post.

Now you are throwing another wrench into it, by saying maybe she gave him HER jacket. Which like you, I don't find that hard to believe...because I read Mayte's book.

Something is wrong with you. I didn't say she gave him her jacket, I don't care. I'm just wondering what is your dog in this race. Like why are you so upset about her saying she made him a jacket or how much she actually put on the jacket? It's a jacket not the hope diamond. I mean you are a fan who hasn't as much as been close enough to pick the boogers in his nose and you are literally flipping out about the details of a old azzed jacket. And yet, you get huffy about women being over the top who were actually close enough to pick his boogers, they probably picked a bump or two on his back in reality. I don't get it. Are you planning on buying it at the auction?

I am not chasing links about silly stuff. Either articulate your point or keep sounding like a fanatic, that's on you. I just wanted to know if there was really some major thing about this particular jacket. There's not, so I'm pretty much done with it. I have no intention of being drugg down into these kind of rabid holes, and I meant rabid not rabbit.

Cant remember if there two or three off the top of my head but there was always back up clothes for most outfits in case say ripped a dress or shirt or whatever when changing backstage.

Ahhh...that explains it then. Thanks for answering that.

No wonder people kept saying it wasn't the same jacket, that they looked different. LOL

"U Got the Look"...funny story. Even though I was in Prince's band, he asked me to choreograph the video. I said "Fine, but, you have to pay me. This is not for the 'Sign o' the Times' Tour, this is an extra job." So, I told him the money that I wanted and he agreed to it. He said "We're going to film it in Paris."

.

No one knows this, but, Prince and I both edited the "Sign o' the Times" movie together. Even though it has the editor's name (on it), we went picture by picture. We had pictures all over the wall of the editing room.

.

The "U Got the Look" video was amazing. Sheena Easton was funny. I told her "You have to be sexy and you have to walk backwards." She said "But, I will fall! I will fall down!" I said "Just do it." It was cold and I was freezing. I was about to blow off the stage holding on to Prince's coat and she said "Oh, I can't, I'm scared." I said "Just do it!" It came out really well. I actually enjoyed that video.
Prince's mom came (to the set). That was the first time I met her. She was so beautiful. A doll. Just gorgeous. I met Prince's little brother. He was so cute and he had a crush on me. I was like "Bless your little heart." I can't remember his name, but, he was just adorable. He had green eyes and curly hair. Prince's mom was really short like him and adorable, sweet, kind. Just awesome.

Are you in a bad mood today? Do you see my LOL's, and smiley faces, and a wink? If you aren't interested in the damn jacket, then stop complaining about me being interested in it. Pretty simple. Looks like maybe my questions might get answered if Cat is thinking about coming here to the forum.

So she didn't get paid extra for choreographing SOTT?

I gets serious when folks start twisting my words, smiley faces or no.

Not knocking your interest. If this is a ploy to get Cat on the org to defend herself. Then, OOOoooooooooooooo, I get that. You could have orgnoted me to shut up and let you work on something.

Stop being so silly.

It might have been included in the pay she agreed to.
She did the choreography for Sheila E's Koo Koo video too

Yeah exactly. Back up clothes were a must. Especially on a prince tour. 🙂

That must've been a massive undertaking.

I will, but thanks for your permission.

I find it interesting. To me it's not just about a jacket, it's about THAT jacket. That jacket was awesome. One of my favs.

Sadly I never got to see Cat and Prince perform together live, but I love what I have been able to see on youtube. They did amazing work and look great together.

Will Cat be doing a Q&A?

I hope she does but I hope it's different then Sharon's question and answers because we never did get the 3rd part of that one.

And I doubt we ever will. Shame, I was looking forward to see if she would adress the question of Prince being left alone in PP after the Moline incident...

I would like Cat to do a Q & A.

Puhleez.

Hey guys I’ll be talking this over with her in the next few days I would like to see her do it too.

Thanks, that would be great.

MMJas said:

Chek out her FB page.

https://www.facebook.com/...nref=story

She tells fans not to go there cause it's no longer the place Prince built.
Also, she says Prince did not die in the elevator, someone put him there.
And she basically comments on all those people riding the purple gravy train...
