Nona Gaye on Prince in March 2002 Esquire

{{{An interesting little insight to Nona's relationship with Prince about ten years ago.}}}

Interview online also:
http://esquire.com/women/...frame.html

~~~~~
Why Nona? Why Not?

Call and response with the actress and singer Nona Gaye, who talks about her knockout debut in Ali, her former boyfriend Prince, and her famous father, Marvin.
[ By Carter Harris ]

ESQ: Given that the relationship between your mom, Jan Gaye, and your dad was tumultuous, have you tried to steer clear of famous men?

NG: You cannot help who you fall in love with. I've dated famous men.

ESQ: Yeah?

NG: I thought you knew one of 'em. . . . I dated Prince.

ESQ: Do you want to tell me about that?

NG: Not really. I was seventeen, eighteen. It was very strange, a whirlwind of head trips and mind screws. Three years I dated him and didn't know him and really never let him know me, either. But that was a long time ago, and I wish him well. I have nothing but forgiving and warm feelings to send his way.
~~~~~

That's pretty much the whole section in which she talks about Prince. There are some nice pictures of her as well. Check it children!

I've always wondered how Prince pulls off dating multiple women at the same time, and not get busted. If he dated Nona when she was 17 or 18, wouldn't that be around the same time as Carmen and Mayte? I'm surprised he has time for music with that kind of schedule!

I remember when Prince received some AMA of Merit and Gaye presented it to him. He went to kiss her and she almost jumped back as if she were repulsed by him. No hard feelings, eh?

Kelly,I think you read too much into things.The show you mentioned was the 1995 American Music Awards,and if I'm not mistaken,Prince was still dating Nona at that point.Why would she have been "repulsed" by her own boyfriend?

Watch the tape, you Floppy Cocked Fudgepacker. She clearly steps back and looks uncomfortable when kisses her.

Who cares who he sleeps with? Well, the threads discussing his rumored marriage probably combined for over 500 comments.

Hello everyone,
I feel that these women new about one another.If Carmen, Mayte, and Nona and whoever else he was with liked sharing Prince then that is their problem. Ladies never let a man run that game on you. Men loves a challenge don't be so easy. I must say Prince is a true player.

It must hurt that Prince dumped her a week before he got married to Mayte! I would be one pissed-off bitch!

How can one not know one after dating 3 years? i heard prince isn't easy to get close to. i think he's afraid of rejection? u know, even though some of us are talented and great looking, with lots of money, that doesnt mean we're necessarily happy, or loaded with confidence. that dont mean anything. ALL of us have our demons to deal with. some more than others, no matter what your class.
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses

I have heard the song "I Hate U" was written/inspired by his relationship with Nona Gaye. If so, I think that song pretty much says it all...

Just like Mayte, there wasn't no complaining going on when they were all up in the videos and singing duets together. They all got what they wanted and then moved on.

LOL

If you're not a man and you made a comment like:

"Hey! It may be floppy but CREAMpacked, baby, and it goes long, deep and constant!"

at the very least, you're confused.
