Own HIS tux!

I found the link to 'star wares' and on a whim searched for Prince. Amusing!

http://tinyurl.com/mwue6



"This very worn white tuxedo coat with tails, was worn by musician Prince. The coat has satin lapels and was designed by After Six and shows some stains etc from wear. Comes as is. Don`t miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of clothing worn by Prince. Obtained directly from Apollonia Kotero, his former girlfriend. Bio: Raised in a troubled home where his father was a struggling piano player, Prince`s escape was, from an early age, his music.

A genuine musical prodigy, he taught himself to play more than 20 different instruments by ear alone, and as early as junior high was fronting his own band, Grand Central. With the July release of Purple Rain, Prince moved into territory only Elvis Presley and the Beatles could relate to: At the age of 26, he simultaneously had a single ("When Doves Cry"), an album, and a movie in the No. 1 spot on the Billboard and box-office charts. Purple Rain didn`t just visit the top of the charts, it moved into the penthouse and spent a staggering 24 weeks there, good enough for the fourth-longest stay in history by a pop album."

I wanna know more about them stains. Spaghetti sauce? Chicken grease? Body fluids? Enquiring minds want to know.

I was thinking the same.

Bill Clinton sprung to mind confuse
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

Thank you!! And why is it so plain? I'd have to see him in it to believe he'd wear it.

I don't think Apollonia Kotero was really his girlfriend either, you know. So take this with a heapload of salt.

Exactly. That was a whole marketing ploy. I understand that she was married when she got the PR job.
Come here, babe.. yeah...
