I don't know if this counts as newsworthy, but it is Prince-related...

From Entertainment Weekly...
"Never a Dull Moment"
Tommy Lee's wedding to Mayte is off. The drummer and Prince's ex were to marry on July 4 by Gary Susman

Alas, it looks like we won't be seeing another honeymoon video starring Tommy Lee anytime soon. Lee's wedding to fiancée Mayte Garcia is off. In fact, their whole relationship may be over. A publicist for the former Motley Crue drummer told the New York Daily News, ''They postponed their wedding because they're both very busy.'' But Us Weekly reports that Lee and the Prince ex-wife/protégé have split, with a source telling the magazine that Garcia is ''devastated, shocked and upset because Tommy dumped her.''

Lee, 40, and Garcia, 29, had been seeing each other for about two years. They had been engaged since last summer and reportedly planned to marry this July 4, either in Malibu (where Lee lives) or in Spain, where Garcia has a castle that was a gift from Prince. At the time of his engagement, he told Launch.com he wanted to avoid making the mistake of rushing into marriage as he did with Pamela Anderson, whom he wed after knowing her for only a few days. ''I'm going to take my time, dude,'' he said. ''I've been seeing Mayte for like a year, over a year. And I'm not rushing anything. She's super, super sweet, super mellow, no drama, Puerto Rican girl who's just absolutely f--kin' lovely. Slow dude, slow.'' Note to Mayte: Maybe it's time to date someone who's not a musician.

I'm not a musician

Maybe Mayte should take sometime off from men get back into her dancing & her career. Shes a beautiful girl she'll be fine.But when she does start eyeing men again she needs 2 go back home to Paisley Park & get her REAL MAN back!!

This split shouldn't be a big surprise to anyone. They were already in couples therapy sessions before being a married couple! Not a good sign.

At least Mayte and Tommy Lee split up before they took that walk down the aisle toward a lifetime committment to each other. I would hate to see Mayte marry Tommy Lee, be miserable and then wind up having to divorce him. I guess now she is learning what a real dickhead he is. I knew that it was not going to last forever, with Tommy's checkered past. Mayte can do a lot better than that asshole Tommy.

When Prince and Mayte were married, they bought a castle in Spain. When they got divorced, the castle became Mayte's. I guess it was part of their divorce settlement.

(Cute avatar pic, Natsume. It looks like the kitty has a smile on his face.)

I wouldnt exactly call it a castle, as such, per se!! Its more like a villa, having seen pics of it a few years ago!!

Also, I hope needle-happy Tommy didnt give Mayte hepititus, like he did 2 Pammy!! What a lovely, beautiful parting gift!!!???

Also, on another note, I personally think Mayte went with Prince and then Tommy 2 see if she could get somewhere in the music industry!! Well, so far, we havent heard anything from her!!

Dont get me wrong, I think Mayte is an extremely beautiful woman, who deserves better!! Its just that regarding relationships, the dice doesnt seem 2 b rolling in her favour!!

Also violet1, she cant have her man back, cos hes happily married now 2 Mani, and they are both going down the same path in life, particularly spiritually!! So, thats completely out of the question!!

Personally, I dont think we will b hearing much from Mayte anymore, she will just disappear into complete obscurity, like all the other Prince protegees!! :lol

She reminds me of Mrs. Krabappel (from The Simpsons).

I'm a smart woman, I just make bad choices with men!

You're welcome, Natsume. I love cats.

i heard this was a rumor & that they're still 2gether. she's a Traitor 2 me but i'm on P's side so whateva... she could b with him or not but Mayte's no big deal...

psychodelicide said:

Sorry, but I find this post ridiculous.

I don't know if this whole thing is true, but if she's devastated by the breakup then it sounds like she really loved him therefor he couldn't have been a "dickhead" to her. I'm so sick of these generalizations of Tommy because of his relationship with Pam. There have been no reports of abuse as many of you predicted would happen.

Sometimes things just don't work out ya know? And like I've said before, everyone has breaking points and everyone deserves second chances.

Peace

never liked that freak anyway cant turn a hoe into a housewife but it would be nice to sex her!yum

Who ARE these people, and what does this have to do with Prince??

I have the right to post whatever I want on this thread, just as you do. It is a well-known fact that Tommy is a wife-beater and that he was abusive to women that he was involved with. Just because we have not heard anything about him beating Mayte, does not mean that he was not abusing her in some way.

Yes sometimes things don't work out, and yes everyone has breaking points and deserve second chances, but maybe they knew that the relationship was not going to work out and that they would be better off just ending it.

It's probably best for us to agree to disagree, since I know you like Tommy.

Agree to disagree edit

the Big white mansion of Marbella ( Spain) is actually on sale

psychodelicide said:

Sure you have the right to say what you want, but why make accusations? We don't even know if this story is true in the first place.

Agree to disagree

Whether the story is true or not, the fact is Tommy Lee is a jerk who abuses women and everybody knows that. It seems to me that Mayte is the typical "good girl who likes bad boys" and it is hard to feel sorry for people like that. Maybe she should look for someone other than famous rock stars with reps for dogging women.

Yeah your right Prioe , the villa in Spain is about Half hour from where I live and last time I passed it, which was quite a while ago, it was for sale, its certainly no castle but a very nice villa to say the least.

Dont care...as long as she dont try no homewrecking tactics.. ...not that I would care about that either.

hey Mayte was it worth getting your azz kicked and getting Hep C?

wow where does a 29 year old chick/groupie with no talent go??

Playboy

To me it just sounds like Tommy's deeply infatuated with Mayte (never once publicly saying he actually loves this "sweet sweet sweet Puerto Rican girl") and Mayte "shocked and devastated that he dumped her" was really in love with him . . . . .time to move on girlie

Correction, Tommy's quote should be "super, super sweet" not "sweet, sweet, sweet" but the fact still remains, . . . . . . she's sweet
