It is deplorable. She wants the trademark to make shirts. She wants to use something he created to make money for herself.

actually you have no idea. Just becasue someone has a trademark or copyright doenst mean they will use it for ANYTHiNG. You are simply specualting because you apparently live for this stuff.

Regardless, M2 would have known that this was set up in Amiir's memory. It wasn't her's to claim trademark.

One of her request was for products. Do you think she is going to slap a logo on a product and sit it in her home? It does not matter because she was wrong to go after it in the first place and she did it a few days after he died so she sure got over her grieft and got back to business real fast.

It is what it is. Why is it worry you that she may not get this money making venture off the ground.

well said! regardless of the technical stuff--M2 would have known this was set up for Amiir and it wasn't her's to claim show's M2 lack of compassion for a parent's grief and evenmore so since P just passed. Really cold.

What the fuck is a Matte? And what the heck is a crusader? How do you know if they never talked again after the divorce? You don't know either of them, so stop stating your opinion as a fact. None of us will ever know if the two ever talked again or not.

There is no evidence that either wife was involved in his life after the divorces. Not one shread.

There's also no real evidence that he had contact to Vanity either, but here you've been on another thread, claiming that her brother in law got some evidence, but refuses to show it. *cough cough* hearsay.

Slandering Mayte, slandering Mani, same difference to me. Until we know for sure exactly what's going it's all just perception.

Wow. Well then if you are unable to distinguish between two completely different human beings are you able to grasp that this thread is about the trademark issue?????? And no, facts are facts regardless of 'what we know for sure', we being the fan base. It is NOT all just perception. Are you Mani??? Seriously dude, you got me smh here today

then again upon further reflection i get that its your prerogative to think how you want so there is that. never mind me. i'm just an opinionated old fart after all

As am I.


To me if both exes have their hands in this, then either whatever happening it's a good thing or it's a bad thing. I'm on the fence and have no poo to sling unless it's at both, so I'm out, until something more relevent shows up.

Nice, I like these

Hope for the best but for some reason it just seems so much negativity surrounding it .

Kim Berry is using Prince right now as we speak to make money. Where's the outrage.

Does anyone know the status of Kim's book...publishing date, specifically? Diamonds and Curls, I think was the title? Admittedly, I will purchase. I feel she will have interesting stories...nothing salacious, per se. More along the lines of light hearted stories, will discuss his hairstyles (obvs) and perhaps share some of their spiritual discussions. I'm looking forward to it and hope it is still an active project. Speaking of Kim (and Mayte and Manuela), her IG account photos are so telling! She has photos of Prince, Prince and Mayte (and Mayte alone), Prince and the Twinz (and Twinz alone), Prince and Andy (and Andy alone) and Shelby, as well. Over the past two years she has not posted one single, solitary photo of Manuela (with or w/o Prince). I find it puzzling because Kim was still employed by Prince during the Manuela years, right?! Frankly, I think she was able to see right through Manuela. Maybe figured out she was the opposite of what she presented? Kim appears to be very nice and have a good heart so I guess if we attract like minded people, Manuela would have contrasted w/that theory.

Make no mistake about it. I will buy Kim's book too!

I was talking about the current items she has up for auction.

I think many will be writing books - it will be interesting to read all and compare notes. I am sure they all have a different perspective. It will be fun to see -

Kim is auctioning items? I’ve heard nothing about it. Where? Thx

Kim has some perfume bottles, and some jewelry in the auction. She said Prince 'gave' them to her? Several others are auctioning things off too.

There is evidence. There is an interview that Vanity did in 2010 and she is asked in the interview when did she last speak with him she states two years ago. Also Vanity’s brother in law also has said he has e-mails and lettersbwtween the two going to 2012. Use the search key it is your friend. Even Vanity’s sister told her brother in law that Vanity and Prince picked her up from LAX around the time of the Batman soundtrack. Use the search key.

Mayte also stated they had contact after the divorce. She wrote that in her book. But you don't take what she said as evidence, but if Vanity says she talked to him it is.

Her contact was at minimum of seeing him twice. She was not a part of his life and he stayed in touch with many women for years. Also I am not going just by what she said I am going by what her brother in law said her own sister had stated. In addition, he claims she left him a storage bin of personal items including letters between the two them. Look it up. It has been discussed at length.

Your right. Matye only contact with Prince at concerts or something. But that's it. Lately I have been thinking about Matye and I feel she doesn't have very good people around her. She seems impressonable and can be easily swayed by people. She seems so sweet and that's probably what Prince fell in love with her kind nature..but over the years with hurt and pain it can distort this but I think she still is...I do believe Prince loved her and some ways probably always did they had a special time and so many video's, songs etc together she and Prince left an imprint that nothing could change..they also had a baby. She got min in the divorce and never asked for more and didn't see her shopping spending P's cash...she just loved him, didn't make his life hellish just made it ok for him... and you can see she still does in a way. She imprinted their wedding symbol on her hand and its plain to see. She never really moved on with anyone--dated yes, but married no! It seems she believes he was her soul mate...anyways back to the trademark--hope M2 or others don't get and maybe if God will it will be returned back to where it's suppose to go...Matye, Prince and Kirk.

I think she has bad people around her and I never doubted that he did not care for her but things change and sometimes people need to accept that and move on.

So you are saying that the divorce records show that Mayte remains a director, right? You do realize that a director is responsible for the correct running of a business or charity. You will have seen the mess as described in the court documents we’ve been discussing (“lack of proper paperwork” as the attorneys so nicely put it)? Are you sure you want the potential fall-out of that for someone whom I assume is your friend? The trademark issue is then also hers to follow-up. That’s gonna bring this board down, “M1 against M2”.

Who cares what that responsibility requires? I don’t. But the fact is this $8 million dollar now defunct charity and its property are the sole responsibility of Mayte Garcia now that Prince is no longer here. She can revive it or completely dissolve it by distributing the assets. Prince could have done that himself if he really wanted to dissolve Love 4 One Another but for one reason or another he didn’t. For them to pursue an LLC in 2008 makes me think he had intentions of reviving it.

You really need to seek help. If you think anyone is going to turn over the 8 million to her and the property you are dreaming. First they have to find out what PC did with the 8 million and get the property back. The money and the property would belong to the non-profit not Mayte.

The estate is a creditor on the property since Prince paid property taxes on the property and that is even mentioned in the court docs.

If she goes after that money I guess that would prove what many of us have been saying all along about her.

Please see the evidence. Vanity did this interview 7 years ago and at the 3:35 mark she states she last spoke to him about two years before. Putting their contact at 2009. I have posted the YOUTUBE version as well as the original interview.

Listen and learn.
