Do you ever just think about what things would be like today if Prince had never touched a piano or picked up a guitar? Could you imagine him being a "normal" person, like a car salesman or a plumber?

What do you think he would've picked as a career besides a musician or celebrity?

Just a fun thread folks let's have a little fun!

My thinking: pool cleaner, fo sho'!

He'd definately be in the service industry.

YES!

This topic reminds me of the new Pepsi commercial. Have any of you seen it?

It's got a little boy walking down the street (wearing a small 'fro and striped shirt aLa 'Musicology'). He stops and looks in one direction and sees a Pepsi machine, looks across the street and sees a Coke machine. Looks back and forth a couple of times, then decides on a Pepsi. While he's drinking out of his bottle, he realizes he's next to a music store and sees an electric guitar (Hohner, I believe) in the window. A Hendrix tune starts and they "show" the boy's name, James Marshall Hendrix.

Across the street, the Coke machine is next to an accordion shop.



So, under some other circumstances, without the strife and opportunities that Prince had and did NOT have...he would have been a totally different person.

I remember reading once, in an old, old magazine interview (like Right On!), Prince said he'd go to college and study music if he didn't make it in the music biz.

Oh, the thought!! But I think if he NEVER touched a piano or guitar-- ever!-- I could see him as a mechanic working on `88 Camaros and old mustangs. I can see that. He would have been one HOT mechanic and I would have went to him often (although I don't drive!). Um, I think if he were in any other profession besides music, I think someone would've suggested he get into acting or some type of modeling. That face and mouth and thighs are too beautiful to waste in the "ordinary" world.

If he wasn't famous nobody would call him Prince. People are only willing to call you names like Prince if you are famous...or a prince. He would have a fade, or a really short fro (it's hard to get a decent job when you're a tiny black man with a perm). He would have most likely been called Roger (His business cards would probably say P. Roger Nelson- he woulda dropped the s). "Raj" for short. He probably would have been the "weird tech guy" that everyone has at work.

Just what I think.

That's good! Prince as a "weird tech guy". Not only can I see it, I can believe it!

HMM PRINCE AS A MECHANIC SWinging his dick around like a water hose....hmm i don't know.

First of all i don't think prince would be as pretty as he is if were just a regular guy. The dermatology bills would be a real bitch, and he'd probably have about 5 kids by now. Divorced 3 times paying alamony(or however you spell it) and child support.

Maybe he would be one of those old guys up in the club still trying to pick up 19 year olds?? You know the ones with the gold tooth, and old jeri curl/fade with the part on the side?

Or what if he had been a masseuse? Do u think he would have fucked all his clients? Maybe, Maybe not, we'll never know...

You have me in TEARS laughing!!! The funniest thing is that I can see it!!

You just reminded me of Milton in Office Space.

Prince would be preaching at the First Missionary Zion AME Antioch Brotherhood Christ Lord Jehovah(did I miss something) Baptist church. Pissing off the choir by repeatedly butting in at rehearsal.

Without the fame, I think the women would be few and he would find more men after his sweet little body. He would then ofcourse be "bi" and working as a receptionist or something like that....shit, I don't know! I'm just really glad and thankful that it has all worked out the way it was supposed to!

AsianConnection said:

Ha! A receptionist! Too funny! Oh my...I have to disagree with the women being few if Prince wasn't famous; I think Prince without fame would still have a lot of girls. There's just something about his mouth and nose and eyes-- and he had these things way before fame (I believe!) and because of this I think girls would have liked him without actually knowing why.

and note: if you are a man and men "are after your sweet little body" doesn't make the man with the sweet little body gay or bi...it just makes him DOUBLY hot!!! I am a girl with a NICE LITTLE SHAPE and everyone loves it-- but I am as straight as ever!

Clubbin' in Mpls/A Night w. Prince

O.K. with his Proclivities I would say a BEAUTICIAN for Sure or some kind of Artist with Painting or Fashion Designer. But he has ULTIMATE Fantasies about being a MALE WHORE... So maybe he'd a Moonlight as a CALL BOY.... for extra Bread. Beautician by day Whore at Night..LOL.... But well, that was before Now My Friends....

Glad You found the humor in that first part! As for the rest of it, I just had this vision in my mind of a friend I have that has a clerical job where I work. He's a sweet (very feminine), and petite man (like Prince) who's witty as hell and hilarious. Bobby used to be bi-sexual in his younger years but was mostly with men. He tells me that very manly men adored him. Anyways, I realize that a "sweet little body" doesn't make you gay /bi, I just imagined Prince being like Bobby. As for the eyes, nose, and mouth.... well, I can't comment on that (since i'm straight as can be)! But did you think those things before all of the make-up and grooming!!?? Do you think that when You look at the "For You" or "Prince" album covers!!??

Oh, and can you e-mail me a picture!????

Peace & Love, Paul

whatever it is, it will always include music. he'd be like the mechanic on martin lawrence show "martin" singin' "dontcha know nooo gooood"

I was just thinking the came thing!

I could see him with the big frame glasses saying, "Uh, ma'am, your new hard drive will be installed by 5. Will that be cash or credit?"

heybaby said:

If Prince wasn't famous like he is today I could see him doing one or two things actually. I could see him being a car salesman you know in like so many of his videos he has nice cars might be expensive looking but they are nice so it looks like to me he has some knowledge of cars. If not that I could see him doing something for children maybe weather he worked in a daycare, adoption agency or even maybe a animal shelter something among those lines.

ReRe said:

Hell no, He'd be a customer service care rep.

"Helli, Welcome to [Insert Corporation Name here], My name is --may I help U?"

"I'm sorry, you're name is what?"

"", he'd reply, "Can I help you?"

"ok, whatever, I need to arrange a payment on my mortgage"

"U own a house?"

"Ah...Yeah?? That's why I'm calling?"

"Do U own your masters? "....

He would be a car hop at Sonic, just so he could wear roller skates

Well, the make up does help and the grooming, but I think I'd still be attracted to him-- there's something about him. Anyway, everyone in show business usually uses make up to go from CUTE to HOT. The FOR YOU cover--now that's another story. Maybe that was bad lighting or something.
