I heard on the radio that "the artist formally known as Prince" is going to appear on the show tonight. On MTV I heard "the artist formally known as toothpick" is going to appear on the show. I guess he will be there?

You mean people still watch MTV??? Wow where have I been???

It said on the TV commercial. "The Artist Formerly Known as Puff" now P.Diddy.

Prince at the VMA's nowadays, I don't think so. :Roll:

Please Prince, don't lower yourself.

every year same rumour

Indeed.

oh jeez, here we go. As if Prince would go to this!, then again he does have a video to promote, nahhh he wouldn't, that would be classed as good marketing!. Therefore consider it impossible!!.

love to see him perform at an award show again. but the VMA? i hope not. i doubt it.

Prince burned his bridges with major networks and labels, so I don't think they really care about him or his music right now.

Though its funny that they even bother to have a music awards show anymore, considering they hardly play music videos these days.

Why does everyone around here pretend to be too cool for these awards? You know most of you will be talkin about who was there and who said what tomorrow... And the rumor buzz of an appearance is bigger this year only because its an anniversary show and it'll probably be big on "retro" surprises... Wouldn't be the worst move Prince could make to show if he'd like to sell more than a few hundred units in the future.

:Roll:

You DID NOT hear "The Artist Formally Known as Prince"



What you DID hear is "The Artist Formally Known as PUFFY"

I dont think so.

Oh please!!! Let him be there!! Just so I can see him "live"

on the other hand...Prince, please don't show up! U can't sit next to Christina Fuckinlera and Britney Spears (hopefully no more) and don't get any award cause U're not even nominated!!
What the hell is wrong?

So tell me - is he gonig to the awards or not??

It was PUFFY ... not PRINCE ... I am glad we had this chat...

Prince is asked to go to the VMA's every year, but he doesn't go. the last time he went was in 1999, introducing TLC.

MTV says the most lame things about P

Yes Prince, don't do it!!! It would be terrible to introduce yourself to a new audience

LittlePill said:

Right...like you wouldn't love to see Prince on MTV (or any other form of TV). I guess it is a better defense to have a strong offense...or something like that, anyway.

god damn it. it's "FORMERLY" not "formally"

How can a channel that does NOT play video have an award show for videos. The VMA show is the WORST show ever produced. each year it just goes futher down the garbage shoot. I know Price will not lower himself to be on it. The only good thing about this years show is that Jun from Big Brother 4 will be on it.

Prince @ the VMA's ? Por que? Prince already has a variety of fans that are loyal to him. the younger generation wouldn't understand Prince and his music. Only the old school listner knows the power that Prince has over his fans with his music!

Im bout tired of not seeing prince on any award show...it'snot a show without the Main Motherfucker there...everything else is shit...Chris rock is going off on every1 right now...lol he's a good host.

Oh Yeah,prince take's himself out of the award's...every show want's him to appear...but he has no time for them...so he's not lowering himself but puting himself higher in the music industry..CAUSE HE IS!!!

I think you're right! what the hell are these awards for anyway? for the music biz i gues. Only i have to admid that i liked it back in the 1984-85 days...
I'm just looking forward to this Sheila E happening. nothing more nothing less.. and i'm also not expecting too much out of it. but it still can be worth a while.. prince will show up, believe me.
If not, he losses al these people as friends i gues.. who cares anyway.

Who was the man who played guitar on the Christine Aguillera's set? Obviously,he have watch Prince play many times. His attitude on stage was very similar to Prince in 1995 when he was performing "Endorphin Machine". His look seems to come from the same time.

This is why Prince didn't show at the VMA's:

Dave Navarro from Jane's Addiction.
