To me, he has a serious but seductor's look in his eye - so sexy.
I think he just looks shy too(believe me, I know what shyness is...). | |

If he was smiling in this pic he would look 100% better Thank you, finally somebody seeing what I see. Just plain old annoyance!! Not tiredness, shyness, or depression. | |

Hence the annoyance. Prince was probably thinking, "Ain't this a bitch, this mf wants to take this the up-close ass pic, and I ain't got a lick of chapstick on!" Of course being JW, he couldn't say that, so he stood there and waited for it to be over. | |

If Prince didn't want to take the picture, then wouldn't he have simply told the photographer "No"? | |

Saying that, I would have thought Prince would have final say on all photos released from a photo shoot, so he must have okayed this one? Kudos to the photographer for getting a more naturalistic picture of Prince. People say he is not wearing so much make-up, but I would dispute that, it is the same amount of make-up as on the full-body shots from this shoot, but nobody pointed out then that he didn't have make-up on - you can see some make-up around the eyes and on the cheeks. Prince usually has a habit in close-ups of tilting his head down while looking up slightly - sounds like that was what he was trying to get the photographer to shoot, but the photographer held his ground and got the shot he wanted. I agree with you and I kinda like the fact that he looks more his age too. Also, it seems whoever did his makeup did not blend it properly. Looks like a rush job so maybe he is annoyed about the whole thing. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

Prince doesn't look 47 years old in this pic, he has no crowsfeet wrinkles...maybe the area in which he shaves looks a little rough, otherwise...he's just as handsome as ever.
Prince is a work-a-holic and doesn't sleep much, he's gorgeous and gets better with age. He's still the man...and I celebrate picture like this...its the very essence of prince and his genius as time grows older. www.newpowerdetroit.com PRINCE ROCK ON! | |

The man is 47 -- it's not that he looks bad - Actually he looks damn good - he just doesn't look like he did when he was 23 -- people age? go figure? | |

Prince has always waxed his eyebrows. I mean,they haven't been pencil thin[thank god] but he has waxed them. There's nothing wrong with that.As long as he doesn't have bushy one's I'm alright. | |

He looks great AND 47...quite awesome...actually! I do not believe close ups are kind to anyone. "We love you from the bottom of our hearts to the top of our souls...thank you!" Prince ~ Musicology Tour ~ Denver 8/2004 | |

----- He just looks tired and he is starting to show is age. I can't understand why people on this board read into things. Newsflash everybody in the Entertainment world wears make-up and we don't need t see guys with waxed eyebrows. Let's not get it twisted. Everyone knows that Prince wears way more make-up much more often and in more everyday situations than most any other male star... with the exception of Michael Jackson (which is 2x more extreme + even crazier with the plastic surgery mess). It is a very shocking picture to me. It really shook me into reality. I couldn't believe what I saw. He looks like a different person. I would love to know how it is he came to let this picture be taken for a book, no less. It's hard to believe that he would allow it. Not the Prettyman. I agree with whoever said that all these years of getting so little sleep have probably caught up with him. It's amazing how, out of all of the pictures we've scrutinized, not one has even come close to this. It shows how effective he is at having his make-up done. All of the close-up on-stage photos of Prince look immaculate. Oh well. We finally see that he is not so invincible that he can cheat time. Come here, babe.. yeah... | |

That's true! there's only a certain amount of air brushing you can do to a close up and this pic was probably too close up for them to make it look decent like the other pics he's taken recently- so I do admit it isn't his best I just didn't want people to compare this picture to a picture from 'Purple Rain'- I truly hope that OPINION being in all caps wasn't a sarcastic reference to the fact that I didn't think you were entitled because I'm fully aware that ALL of these threads are exactly that - completely other peoples OPINIONS. | |

[Edited 6/11/05 14:42pm] i like this pic for the reason that i've never seen any prince pic that looks like this. his eyes..they're so..glazy..they look sleepy/sad, y'know? its a great pic..he's so natural..only thing i don't like is that its kinda deer in the headlightsish - his head looks huge, like its commin @ me Yesterday is dead...tomorrow hasnt arrived yet....i have just ONE day...

I like this pic because it looks so natural and not retouched. You can see his little "naps" at the hairline, lines in forehead, bushy eyebrows, stubbly beard area, chapped lips, etc.
No makeup at all probably would have been better than the uneven application of the foundation and eyeliner. Looking at it just makes you wanna tuck him in bed with some hot chocolate and just pat him on the head. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |
