Eric Leeds wins Lemon Cake-off. That shit brought some much needed levity to this topic.

Somebody is really putting her back into the Prince tie ins, and that schtick gets more absurd by the day. How some yellow cake becomes a song I've definitely heard before is just peculiar. There's a Chappelle joke in there somewhere but I'm feeling lazy. Plus the instructional video on GMA with Betty Crocker fresh out the box?

I'll just focus on the comedy of these grown people carrying on, Purple Rain cast list and all. 2020 is a mess and the folks are ACTING UP.

lastdecember said: The part highlighted in what you said about being sick and done with Apollonia, Sheila, Jill Jones, Susannah Melvoin (and I would throw in Mayte) is exactly how I feel. These women don't give a crap about Prince or any of the fans. Their ultimate goal is to try to shine through Prince death, saying and doing anything to big themselves up to act like Prince loved them the most, and in the end making them more MONEY. That's all it comes down to in the end, no matter what they say. [Edited 4/17/20 10:46am]

The thing though and now I see Cat getting into the mix too, and I'm like Cat? Are u serious. But with Mayte she was married to him had one child and also had a miscarriage too, and covered him in his lies and stayed silent for a long time, she could have easily written a book in 2000. None of these women were married to him I get they were close and dated and probably slept with him and some claim they were going to be married to him but mayte was as was Manuela, who also by the way didn't write a book but for some reason has bonded with Mayte and no one from the early days. The trouble is all in that era, I mean when I have ever heard Andy Allo talk trash about Judith Hill or vice versa, I mean it's petty.

Have you watched any of the "Hollywood Exes" shows Mayte did back in 2013?? Have you seen any of her old tweets that contain "Priince bashing" remarks/jokes?? Do you know that she attempted to sell may of Prince's personal items (clothing, jewelry, etc) prior to his death? She also had her book all but finished when he died, which is why it was the first released after his death. She would not have even tried to release her book in 2000. as Prince would have had his legal team put a stop to it. Yeah nah, she is far from innocent in the "market your connection to Prince" realm.

how people type in a comment box whether emotional or non-intellectual, has no bearing on the truth..so because people appear to sound and type smarter, they are therefore more credible than a person whom you deem less educated, or a person (you obviously dont know personally) who youve decided is "unstable"?... clearly you're a County Judge or an accredited Psychiatrist... or just something else. do tell

I love it! Hold these mofos to the fire

Hate to break it to you, but when trying to assess the validity of someone making a statement, their ability to communicate COHERENTLY, INTELLIGENTLY and SANELY will be factors that affect the listener's assessment.

Mayte's book is really great. He completely fucked her on money. She had her busness and was doing really well before she ever met Prince. Prince kind of ruined her financially. She was 16 when they met, and he pulled her out of his life, and installed her in his at a lower pay grade. He should have had her set up for life after they split.

I could make a longer post about this, but I find it irksome this idea that Prince associates, particularly bandmembers, are not supposed to make money. These are people that gave their entire lives to Prince's work 24/7 for years on end. He was inspired by them and used their ideas, and when they left they were forever associated with him whether they wanted to be or not. They have some owenership of Prince's legacy.

It's not like taking on a musical director gig, or writing a book, or upending one's life to go on tour with the surving members of your old band is making anyone rich. I think some fans (and former non-musician associates) need to cool out.

surely Prince (if he really called her that) wasn’t suggesting that she is a hermaphrodite?!

i cant imagine Prince even saying that.. but who knows...and Sheila E has never appeared to be transgender, but then again im no expert on whats between Sheila E's thighs... maybe she is an anatomical anomaly..or maybe she just has a giant clitoris... oh lawd...i think i need some LEMONCAKE

Okay, that's funny!! Well, Hermaphrodites do exist, so anything is possible. I still take it as more to do with her sexuality (even though "heshe" wouldn't be the term to use for lesbian), because Sheila has always looked feminine. I will say though, I don't really recall any news or information about her dating life or relationships - other than what she's said about Prince back in the 80's.
