Nope. A fat dude with Michael Jackson's voice was on there once though.

They also had a little joke on the episode where Bart's dog had lots of puppies and 2 of the pups had dog dishes that read Prince and the puppy formally known as Prince....

It was called "Hercule Yakko" episode 104, aired on 10/19/93...The Warners are on a cruise ship and Yakko is playing a detective trying to find a stolen diamond... He tells Dot to look for "PRINTS", and she finds "PRINCE" instead!

No No No!
I thought you guys knew so I let it go!
You can actually see Prince. In his purple suit and slick moustache.

When Bart asks the comic guy who will play Radioactive man's co-hero, the guy gets online and contacts his fellow nerds....and one of them is "Il Principe" in person...

ok. So know you owe me one. Please answer this:
Does Prince even do the BRASS on his tracks on Musicology where it says "all instruments etc..."? (Like Dear Mr Man, or Musicology)

Hey. You guys forgot the episode where Homer was accused of being a pervert because he attempted to get the gummie Venus de Milo off the back of the babysitters butt. When the expose tabloid news show apologized they ran a list of others they apologized to as well. If you are quick, you can catch "the Artist Formerly Known as Prince.

Oh yeah!

And similarly, I think it's in the one where Lisa sees into the future to her first love, and there's a newscast where Kent Brockman says "And the following celebrities have been rounded up".

And the names fly up the screen and you can just catch "The Artist Formerly Known As The Artist Formerly Known As Prince" or somethin' like that. lol

there's also an episode where Kent Brockman ends his news report with-"...and the following celebrities are gay....". Lots of names flash up really quickly and in the middle is a prince

Fonzy

another is when
Homer yells "Whoo! Purple Rain!" at Little Richard, then says "Michael Jackson told me to shut up" after LR tells him to shut up. He's confusing LR with both Prince and Michael Jackson.
Episode Number: 298
First Aired: January 5, 2003
