In his autobiography called BOY, Boy George remembers the scene backstage at the 1985 Grammy Awards, With this quote:



"It was Princes year and he would not even go onto stage to accept his own awards even though he was standing backstage and quite available to walk on stage he sent a member of his band the Revolution each time each of them takeing turns thanking God and walking backstage to show Prince the award; it was his year and I knew the world was lining up to kiss Prince's pert bottom."
