I just found out this girl I've known for a long time met Prince once. She said he was really short, really effeminate and as she put it "hella gangsta" She said she was so surprised he acted more like you would expect Snoop Dogg to be like than "awwwwah" girlish Prince we know from the videos.

That's why i love him! I find it extremely ironic that he's not from the 'hood' yet he's cooler than those people

I think the real question here is why do u hang out with someone who would use
the words "hella gangsta" in a sentence

Girlfriend, I've heard the same from my sources. Actually, I heard that he has more juice than Morris Day no shit and that Morris is little bit more laid back than P at times.

I know three separate girls who have hung out briefly with prince at a club or bar. One of the girls, who was tall, was also hit on by morris hayes, and after hanging with both, she was not turned on by prince. Both of them (prince and morris) would call her after the tour moved on, and when Prince found out she was talking more to Morris, he called her and sort of bitchilly said "you digging on my keyboardist?"

The real question is why do you care. Let the girl tell her story the way she wants to tell it.

Wow, you know what is werid? I always thought Prince kinda was attracted to tall women.

laurarichardson said:

Actually the girl who told the story is cool as hell and a VERY talented makeup artist. She actually applied to be Prince's personal assitant. Jen if you are reading this

This combination of effiminate and gangsta is an interesting one. He shows signs of being real gangster in some of his videos, but everything can't be an act.

In what way was he effiminate? It can't be the voice. Was it his mannerisms?

Also, how did your friend get to the point of applying for that type of job? How did she know who to talk to, that he was hiring in the first place, etc.?

This is very interesting. I didn't know you were connected, Krstal.

altavista said:

Haha well I wouldn't call myself connected at all! But when you live in Mpls.it is typical to run into people who have had encounters with Prince. It really isn't that uncommon I guess.

When she said fem I guess she ment in the looks department...he looks slighlty like a woman...kinda androgonus...I have noticed that too expecially when he shaves his features look very fragile and effeminate.

As for Jen and how she got that opportunity I am not really sure. She does makeup and hair at my club and she is a real pro. She has always been cool and nice to me and she is a really cool person.

She said she met Prince through Pamala, another lady who does make up at my club as for how she knows Prince I have no idea because I never talked to Pamala about him.

I remember Jen telling me she lives down the road from Prince or used to live down the road from him, I can't really remember.

Jen also did makeup for George Clintion for one of his shows.

All she said about applying for the PA job was like it was extensive background checks and alot of questions you had to awnser.

But the most bizarre thing is I found out I work with Mayte's old bodygaurd! I've know him for like a year and I didn't even know that! He always tells me he has the biggest crush on me...but he says that to EVERY girl! Hee Hee. Whenever I say I wanna marry Prince he is like "You don't want Prince...you want me!" Hee hee such a flirt!

But the weridest thing was that Prince"s old bodygaurd actually hired me at my first club. He seemed really framiliar to me for the longest time! Then I was watching 3 chains of gold again and was like He was in there for a few sceanes and I was like no wonder when I saw him it was like deja vu!

That's all I know for now.

ufoclub said:

if you put his voice with those words, its freakin' hilarious!!!

Oh I just thought of something that popped in my head! When I was younger my sister and I were friends with these two twins and their mother knew Prince in the eighties. She was actually a part time photographer I remember we always adressed her as Mrs. Jones but now I can't remember her first name. her daughters names were Rafeea and Rashida though and I remember once Mrs.Jones let me borow these photos she took of Prince. It was at First Ave and were taken in black and white and pro quality. I remember he was wearing the black outfit from Kiss so I knew it was probably taken from 1986. It was various shots of him singing, dancing, and onstage. I remember showing them off to all my friends at school and they were like "Ewww, how can you think he is cute...he looks like a girl!" You know how immature fourth graders are but I was like "You guys just don't get it!"

yo & don't cha kNOW....Prince is steeped N ghetto!!!

it only takes a few moments away from the limelight ta find that out, could C where U youngstas would call him "hella gangsta"

agree that Morris is more mellow, think the wife @ home probably helps him with that....mayB how he added a son & grand-daughter N the same year

ufoclub said:

Cool! What did the girl look like? I bet she was a tall supermodel type.

Krystal666 said:

Hotlegs said:
