There are some popular woman. Missy disses him in a song. Mentioning P wanting here to change her name and her saying no thanks. He freaked out Sinaed O'Connor, back in the day. Not that, that is hard.

i wouldn't read too much into the missy lyric - after all, he mentioned missy in "the marrying kind", so the whole thing just seemed like a couple of friendly namechecks.

i'd imagine that the people who dissed prince back in the '80s are probably singing a different song about him today, with the possible exception of sinead.

I forget the Boy George quote, but I remember that it's a very old quote and that often Boy George is mis-quoted because of his sense of humour. Often he is quoted as being deadly serious by the media when in fact he had his tongue firmly in his cheek.

*wonders if anyone dare make a quip about his tongue being in between someone else's cheeks* lol

He just made fun of Prince's appearance. He said Prince looked like a midget dipped in oil and rolled in pubic hair. lol

Actually Boy George had a HUGE crush on Prince in the mid=eighties. He mentioned it over and over again in his biography. I think he mentioned giving a wolf whistle to Prince once and Prince just turnned around and sneered at him.

Trent Reznor and Elton John, probably, for the way Prince was an asshole to them when they met.

Pat Robertson
Kid Rock
Robert Tilton
Cheryl Johnson
Jimmy Swaggart
Osama Bin Laden
Charlton Heston
Jim Bakker
Margie Cox
Oral Roberts

Also, Nostradamus probably foresaw not liking Prince.

He was a "fly by night" fan who only really liked Purple Rain and other '80's hits, but he WAS once a fan. Also, he has an interesting sense of humor. For all we know, he might still be a fan.

BTW, Jimmy Carter is STILL alive!! lol

He sure does. Who's Lita Ford?

I'll add Branford Marsalis to this list, though.

No, he and Elton are still pretty close. In fact, Prince was invited to one of Elton's after parties and there's a recent pic of them sitting together and chatting...

Elton John also mentioned prince when he qualified his apology to madonna "she's not a great artist in the same way the U2 or springsteen or Prince are."

oh yeah, missy loves prince. Her reference to him was more of a good-hearted joke. I remember that she was one of the celebrities who had an entry in the "quotes from other artists about prince" thread
