I think, if this were the case, Boni Boyer and Rosie Gaines would've never been allowed 2 per4m on the same stage with Prince and he obviously held both of them in very high regard.


Actually, hasn't Rosie stated she felt kind of put down sometimes by Prince because of her weight, or that she was criticized or ridiculed by him and the NPG, and that's one of the reasons she didn't enjoy being in the band so much? I thought I'd read that somewhere...

maybe I'm imagining that but I thought that's what I read.


In the book "Purple Reign", Rosie talks about problems like that she had with the guys in the band (particularly Tony M), but I don't think she mentioned Prince having a problem with it. I think if he did, she simply wouldn't b part of the band. Prince doesn't strike me as the "grin and bear it" type.
