you people never really believed the purple ticket thing was actually gonna happen did you? he'll find a way to worm out of it. i'm tellin' you, this whole lawsuit is going to culminate in him moving and cancelling the contest. all this will happen, of course, after fams buy up multiple copies of the disc. lol


Exactly!!! That is what I've been saying about this whole "purple ticket" thing from the very beginning. I refuse to get all excited over it, and will believe it when I see it, since we all know how Prince changes his mind in a split second anyway. hmm
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

A reason why Prince is renting not buying? Mani - cos Mayte took the last mansion and he knew he wouldn't be staying with number 2 much longer, so she would've ended up with this one if he owned it!


hmmm


You might be on to something. One of boys went thru a divorce and handed a mutual friend over a $1 million bucks to keep it from getting pinched in the divorce. It worked too.....Prince may be smarter than I gave him credit for. Cali is a community state so she would get HALF if he was to get a divorce.

I'm willing to bet that Prince is not paying the rent for this L.A. house; Universal Studios is probably paying the tab. Can't artists negotiate things like this? Seems Prince is pretty savy about how to get others to pay for stuff on his behalf. Just a thought.


You are right! Might be a part of HIS contract.

Unfortunately, I believe that if you lease a property it is still not yours to do with what you want. If these things happened he will probably have to pay for the damage, or the record company will.

I personally see Prince spending 70,000 a month on a house that he doesn't own, not to mention all of the decorating and remodeling that he has done. I could be wrong but I can't see it.

I always thought he owned the place. Seems like he doesn't want to leave MPLS forever.



Yeah, why would he? Mpls is the shit! I feel lucky to have been born here. People are SOOOO nice here and it's clean.

I'm sure LA is cool to vist...but I wouldn't want to live there the people seem really fake and plastic there and there is just too many people in general I think.

But I suppose if you have as much money as Prince ANY place is nice. wink

Remember the sports guy from Utah who digs Prince? He wrote a whole article ripping Carlos Boozer for suing the man. This boozer guy sounds like a scumbag.

NEVER EVER EVER RENT!!

(if you can afford it..which prince can...buy!!!)


Considering that many economists think the L.A. housing market is about 50% overvalued, buying right now could be a bad decision. A year from now, that $8.5 million home might be worth only $5.6 million.

If he owned the place, he'd be in a bad position. In light of past housing market crashes, it could take up to a decade for the house to reach $8.5 million again. But since he's a tenant, that's not his problem. He can just decide not to renew the lease, turn in the keys, and wave bye-bye.

Also, even if you don't think that we're in for housing market crashes (and there are some economists who take this position), a good rule of thumb is that you shouldn't buy unless you're prepared to spend 3-5 years living there.
Please note: effective March 21, 2010, I've stepped down from my prince.org Moderator position.

I agree but I doubt there is a lease to renew as there is a reason that the lease runs from September through May. This would be basketball season exactly (training camp through the play-offs) as I'm sure Carlos lives there in the off-season.

That was classic...that guy is my new favorite blogger/sports commentator dude.
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

They just had a news clip about this incident on the local news. Didn't know this, but Boozer used to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers (my home town). They ended the story by saying something like, "We know that Boozer doesn't like red and gold, but we guess he doesn't like purple either". falloff

this is a prelude to the imminent cancellation of this silly "purple ticket" contest. prince will claim he can't have the performance because the owner of the home will not allow it.

he'll then throw a huge thing at the park and charge everyone 31.21 for a ticket. no winners, no contest.
