thank u Anji.

They look tired that's all. Or maybe they weren't all that enthusiastic about having their picture taken right then and there. Oh and Mani seems like the type that is just naturally thin. I am not a vegan or vegetarian but I am about P's size and I am a female with 2 children (one under the age of 2). I am petite and my body type is like Jada Pinkett Smith. I have never worked out and I eat everything however I have always been a size 0-2. I have curves and hips but my body is lean and slender one day I will post a pic. The point I am making is some people for whatever reason ( genetics, metabolism, busy schedules) are naturally thin. I thought by now people had stopped saying stuff like "he or she needs to eat". As long as they are healthy they can be thin if they want. Cause I'm sure I've been at a restaraunt and thought to myself "he or she needs to stop eating." And by the way all this nobody wants and people want is ridiculous. Obviously Prince wants what everyone is saying nobody wants. I know some men like bigger women and some like petite women. It's a matter of CHOICE. I have no trouble attracting the opposite sex and like I said I am petite. I guess I'm just chiming in on this subject because I find that women are too obsessed with what someone else wants. Hey, as long as I'm healthy, I'm happy. And thin will always be in. Ask Halle or any of those other women making bank off a size 2 dress. Remember the camera adds 15 pounds, and even Beyonce lost 3 dress sizes so that says what? Anyway whether big or small, there is someone for everyone so all this nobody wants talk is foolishness. All women no matter the size are beautiful and to be appreciated for more than their outward appearance.We need to stop tearing eachother down and find something positive. I hope P and Mani are healthy and happy.

I agree.

Personally I think Mani looks cool.I don't get the skinny comments at all!
Prince looks tired, which is understandable for someone who's toured for the best part of the year, and grossing more dollars than any other artist in 2004.
Maybe he was itching to go and spend some of that hard earned cash

Hey I hope EROTICCITYNPG dont mind me quoting from the daily email to members of, http://groups.yahoo.com/g...icCityNPG/ ; but I agree with this angle as to maybe why P didn't attend the awards :

"....IMHO I do not blame Prince
for not being there. Okay slap me if I am wrong...I mean if he
intentionally did not show up...good for him. This man knows his
worth in the music industry and to be nominated 5 times also means he
could have possibly been overlooked 5 times...U know what I mean? .....I am happy as hell 4 him cuz he works so hard and
deserves every award he has ever received...but U gotta know by
now ...Xpect the unexpected when it comes 2 Prince...."

They both look shitfaced. Are they high? and what's with the hair? Prince looks like shit. The camp stance too. What's THAT about? How gay?

first of all Prince does not have to give an excuse to not want to show up for any function.he is not the only winner that has never showed up to accept an award.you people need to get a life and stop dogging P for every little thing he does that does not meet your expectations. i have been a fan since 1978 and i love the man for his talents.if he wants to miss an award show that's his perogative. IT OVER IT!!!!

some of ya'll are really killjoys....


We all take bad pics.....and this just isn't one of the best.


Maybe we should start a "post an ugly pic of yourself" so that ppl can relax.

sosgemini said:

I noticed that straight away as well. It doesn't look very well tailored. a rare sight indeed.

Rhondab said:

your a killjoy too for trying to take away our fun at making fun of that pic...




and we arent famous...posting ugly pics of us wouldnt be anything special....it would be "just another day" for the bulk of us..

More like the other way around since he was the booter and she was the bootee (in a manner of speaking).

Since it seems that no one's answered your question, due to either sheer oversight or lack of knowledge, that's Bishop Don Juan, Snoop Dogg's "spiritual mentor" and former pimp.

How do you know how it went down? None of us know for sure just who cheated on who first.

alexnvrmnd said:

I thought the Bishop only wore green (for the money) and gold (for the honeys)--that's what he said in American Pimp. Although that film did come out a while ago.

Does anyone else find the stain on the floor behind Mani a bit weird? Couldn't they have picked a better spot for a pic? The whole picture is a little off imo.

mmmm-mmmmm-mmm Noooo. Bad pic. Red not good on Mani. Worst pic I've seen of them ever. Nastee. Too bad so sad. The beautiful ones always smash the picture and they shoulda smashed the hell out of this one.

I've been reading all the posts on this thread, and true, they are funny. However, no one has figured this out yet.

Prince was on tour most of 2004, correct? They only look so ragged out from catching up on all that LOVEMAKING! Think about it. If you were Mani, and you were sitting at home for a year, wouldn't you "jump them bones" the second he walked in the door? Hence, also the massive weight loss in both. I wouldn't expect any good photos at least until June.

You gotta look past the obvious. Everybody's talking about clothes, hair, but look deeper, man!

And also, I think that it was mentioned before that Mani sews for him? Well, when you are an amateur seamstress, such as I am, you will learn very quickly that not all garments will turn out the way you want then to. I actually made my wedding dress twice, but the first was a trial run. Sometimes that's what you gotta do to get it right.

Prince must really miss Vanity.

I agree, Prince has absolutely no one to answer to...I think it says a lot about the man, matter of fact, it says plenty. It shows that after working so hard the last couple of years, and on this 'Musicology' project, his reward was not to win a grammy, but to do what he always does, and he showed that to everyone, whether it was or wasn’t intentional, because hadn't he won, it didn’t mean a thing because he got the better outcome and still was a no show. Prince made a very strong point and people should respect him for it...look how Usher's crying over the fact he didn't win anything, while Prince won something and didn't even pick it up!

I'm not sure if your comment is mostly in jest or if it isn't, but Mani didn't "sit at home" waiting for Prince to come home from being on tour. She's basically always with him, from what I've heard/observed from concert reports and such, so I don't think neither she nor Prince have been "doing without" for almost an entire year. lol

I've never heard that before. Heard that she was his 'personal assistant' at one point in time, but never his seamstress nor clothing designer.

I am seriously doubtful Mani is handmaking Prince's clothes.

jone70 said:

Those are his "usual" colors, but I've seen him in almost anything "pimpish", so I guess it really doesn't matter to him.

SnowQueen said:

I so much agree.

psychodelicide said:

Who cheated or didn't cheat first is really not the point here. Try to keep up.

cranshaw62 said:

Yup! I couldn't remember where I saw that style of dress... Morticia.

I like the dress. Although the dress does emphasize her slimness, it makes slimness look very elegant. And I have to say, I am surprised by Prince's change in taste. Someone said Mayte has never worn that much fabric in 3 outfits. Not exactly true, but Mani does wear a lot more clothes than any of P's other women. Just go to show how much *he* has changed.

The older generation of Prince fans would probably agree that he doesn't need to change a thing about his looks! The "pimp look" is hot, the hair is hot, however I miss that "come hither" beard he had.

psychodelicide said:

thats exactly what was thinkin!

He look's a little tired, nut she looks like she has been sick with flu or something. I does look like he has something under his coat.
The picture is not flattering to either of them...
