what really strikes me in these photos is how much his style changed.

in the early shots he's actually smiling naturally. he looks like a real person and he's kind of beaming. i think that's attractivem and i like the 'fro. in the later shots, after he's become a 'star', he's wearing gobs of makeup and he's obviously sucking in his cheeks as a pose.

i think he's more appealing au natural, but that's just my opinion

Does he really hang out with his boys when he's in the period of wearing a lot of makeup? Can you emagine P (with Gold look -lots of make up) hanging out with Sam Jackson and Eddie Murphy....

Geez peeps, u're comparing to when he was 17-18! What, u don't look different to when u were in your teens?!

That doesn't mena he DEFINITELY hasn't had surgery, but the evidence is meaningless/ nonexistent.

I have friends who swear he has had his jaw/chin done. But he's so skinny compared to '84, plus he was in his mid-twennies, who wouldn't look different! He always sucks down his upper lift in interviews which indicates to me that he's still conscious about his bite, but who knows?

I was comparing the two album covers not 1979 and 2004....I know we all look different from the ages of 18 and 40....but the two album covers show the differance in his nose between the two albums....If he did or didn't I don't care....If I had some money I might do something....I think we all would - nothing major but a smaller nose more hair - whateva you like. I don't believe that he had any other work. Happy New Year

No he is not perfect...but I must say I stand by my statement regarding my own features and how they have changed over time...even without the benefits that P has....lighting...make-up....etc. I do like it when he is more natural....you know when the illusion crew isn't following him around!

hmmm i'm on the fence on this one

The nose appears different...

It could be natural, as the nose -like hands and feet- is a part of our anatomy that continues to grow after puberty.
Also, he didn't use much make up in the early years and the contrast you achieve this way -beyonce- may have changed its appearance as well.

I'm not sure, but I think he's had his eyes done recently, but who cares, I want Prince to look cool like he does, so I'm not complaining. I think all the stars do soemthing, they kinda have to otherwise they'll look to normal and not god-like.. haha P is still da man.., he is whiter though it seems..mmm..

Yet another dead horse topic.

The man's nose looks different in a host of pictures, old and new. Not to mention the fact that most of the professional pictures published of him are air-brushed to death in addition to him wearing varying amounts of foundation.

Comparing the Prince (1979) and Controvery (1981) album covers, its the same nose with different lighting on pics.

Its the same nose!

Yes , exactly !

What makes this topic so funny is that even if Prince has had plastic surgery, he did it the right way. Plastic surgery is supposed to be an enhancement, and if done properly it should leave people wondering "Did he or didn't he"? Prince obviously hasn't gone the MJ route (praise the Lord). If Prince has had surgery, it's been so slight that it's questionable.
Personally, I don't think he's had any surgery. I think camera lighting and make-up are responsible for the different looks. Just look at the recent pictures of him and Mani at the Ocean's Twelve premiere. In one picture he's lighter, in another he's darker. Due to lighting, cameras, etc., you can look several different ways walking down the same red carpet.
The more interesting question to me is not whether Prince had plastic surgery in the past, but whether he will in the future. As he ages, will he let nature take its course, or will he keep the wrinkles at bay with botox and surgery?

looks like the same nose to me

That is horrble comparison those are two different photos from two different angles. It the exact same nose in both. Smiles and the like widen the look of the nose if you shot over ontop on in this case on the side the nose will look different everytime that is photography not surgery.

Peace

He nose looks the same in these two pictures. I just think he looks different due to make-up and the fact that most black people who light are going to get darker in the sun. Dude still has a big nose to me.

Don't sweat it! These type of threads remind me basically of big ol' dysfunctional family gatherings where the highlight is bashing 'cousin Prince' because he's doing so well and everyone else is jealous and miserable.

Those whom have opinions that matter to Prince know the truth, anyone else's opinion is irrelevant.

we finished now? good. lockin this one up....
