he might have to have surgery one day if he keeps wearing those heels, they're painfully bad for feet.

he looks better in flats anyway


Since when has he worn flats? Even these ugly, teeny-bopper shoes have a wedge heel. confuse


ok, relative flats. the wedges, the sneakers he's sportin at the b-ball game - these look better on him imo. more realistic. anything besides the heels, heels, heels. by now you know he needs mad surgery to fix his feet from dancing about in heels for 20 years. that stuff racks ya

These shoes are still raised 3-4 inches to make him look taller. I still consider it a heel.

Me to !!!

The heels were always the clearest evidence 2 me that he was an alien or superhuman. No mortal could do all that in 5" heels and still have a spine.

AND now he shatters the last myth! (Even after NPS and Rave I still believed he was superhuman but had somehow got confused by the wierd radiation from billions of mobile phone users). But if he has foot problems??!!! Man, I need a new hero...

I say he should wear the heels on stage but wear comfortable shoes all other times...at least that is what I would do..

Probably. I just can't see why, if he wnated to go comfy, he had to start wearing such ugly shoes.

I' dont'give a shit what he wears onstage. I thinks its amazing at his age that he can still put on a show to rival any 21 yr old out there today.. If he needs comfortable shoes to keep dancin, let the man do it.. Timberlake still aint got nothin on him..

Wow. He's in a bit of a predicament. He was so fashion-forward that he got us all sweating his heels. Now that, let's face it, he can't wear them all the time we've got our microscopes out and inspecting.

He is so stylish by nature that I have to believe that those shoes are the best he could do in order to both follow his orthopedic doctor's orders and look funky. We seriously need to cut him some slack. Really, what are his options?

We need to accept the shoes with lifts, just like we've accepted his not doing splits and his not singing the salacious lyrics we love.

(but damn, I hate to have to.)

That can't possibly be the best he could do. I can't remember her name at the moment, but there's some up-and-coming designer who's got a line of sexy orthopedic high heel shoes. They look only the tiniest bit different than regular shoes, and apparently they're super-comfy and suitable for people with foot/back problems.

P.'s a rich guy -you can't tell me he couldn't find anything other than drugstore granny shoes to wear. confused

Well...don't you think a person like him (with as many stylists as he has and with money being no object) knows a lot more than you do about what's out there? He has people on his payroll whose entire jobs are devoted to making him look funky. And they don't disappoint in any other area, do they? They have him macked out in style EVERY day. To me, this points out how big a deal this foot thing really is.

So I maintain my stance on the shoes (pun intended). tease

My point was that if his stylists gave him those shoes to put on, honey, nobody could do no better.... sadly...

You'd think would know more about fashion than me, anyway. My point was, if I (a person with extremely limited income living in a fashion-backwards town) knows that these shoes exist, it should be no problem for him to pick up a pair or 6.

Keep in mind too, that over the years Prince has made more than his fair share of style fuck-ups.

Professional female dancers wear high heels all the frickin' time, all through their careers. It's not that big deal if they are good well-crafted shoes and not that cheap crap people buy at bargain prices. Besides, women who say high heels hurt are always stuffing their feet in far too small shoes and not knowing how to walk in 'em. No wonder they'll get hurt. Idiots
