Has the thought of Prince and Tamar being more than just friends and co-workers ever just cross ur mind?? I mean, sometimes I feel like 3121 should be say 'performed by Prince and Tamar' instead of 'performed by Prince.' I dunno, tho. Maybe it's just me, but sometimes I kinda tired of hearing Tamar singing with Prince on nearly all the songs. I mean the NPG is featured only on Lolita and even then they're just shouting but Tamar, on the other hand, sings back up.as well as co-lead vocals on about half of the entire album. Why did she get special treatment? I mean, she's pretty good but not THAT good. Which is why I wouldnt be suprised if they were more than just work buddies.

Yeah, just like him and Rosie during the Diamonds and Pearls era

she's been connected to the music biz for quite a long time, they could be connected socially in a number of possible ways. i think he's doing the protege thing right this time around, and he's keeping it professional. it just FEELS that way, whether it's the truth or not.

Prince is Prince but we can't expect him to be intimate with every single woman... (Unfortunately. lol) Of course I've also thought about that, if they are more than just colleagues, but nobody knows but them...

But I'm a curious person and it's all a mystery to me, he and Mani and he and Tamar and he and...everything... I dunno so please, if anybody here meets him, tell him to put some light on the subject!

sometimes the truth is just depressing. i'm happy with my delusions/perceptions.

I agree with you. Maybe Lolita is about her...who knows. I think she adds real value to the album. Kinda like Linda did to Paul's albums.

8up said:

hmmm,...maybe Lolita is about her.

Isn't Prince Married? Besides, if we simply go by history, I don't think Tamar would be his type.

On another note, am I the only one who has wondered if Mani is preggers and that's the explanation behind her recent absence?

Someone told me that they had done some stuff together previously, a while back. I can't remember what it was, or what album if even, but I remember someone telling me that they had worked together before 3121.

I really don't give a damn....

There's a bootleg of a song 'On Your Own' that is credited as being sung by Ashley Davis (Tamar being her middle name) recorded sometime 93-94 but I don't know anything more.

I think either Prince and Mani have split up or she is pregnant and they are keeping it secret from fans and the media. Either of those could be reasons why Prince hasn't done any interviews for 3121 as he would likely get asked about Mani.

Mani accompanied him everywhere in the past, but she hasn't been seen for ages.

I can't figure it out either. She is talented but I don't think I've ever seen him push one of his protegee's like this. I mean the SNL preformance was pretty looked forward to by fans because he was playing new music and we hadn't seen him in too many TV preformances for a while up until that point. And he did a whole duet with her. Then his backing her on their selected cities shows...and she sings back up on alot of his songs on his album. He must REALLY like her.

Like where is Mani? We didn't hear of Tamar when she was around. Now Mani seems to be doing her thing and Prince and Tamar are together ALOT! To be honest I wouldn't be surpirsed if they were a couple. He seems to really care about her.

Looks like U and me are on the same page.

You must have heard he got another band
They're making money, they're making plans
You feel left out, but you need to understand
Word on the street, he's still your man


The "another band" could mean Tamar...

Perhaps Tamar is in reality..Zelaira

Their relationship is probably strictly business.

In the last month or so, Mani flew over to Africa for 4 weeks to do work for her Gamillah companywhateveritis, and has also been photographed at various other events. She still looks as skinny as a rail.

i love prince and his sexy mf atmosphere

or it's just that mani is pregnant

VelvetJ said:

Like Prince being married has ever stopped him from screwing around with other women. Read the bios on the man, he's one of the biggest male ho's the world will ever see, and would we really want him any other way? He wasn't faithful to Vanity, Sheila, Susannah, Susan Moonsie, Anna Garcia, Mayte or any of his other women, why would Mani be any different? Prince is and always will be a pimp, he is not a one woman man.

You're right VelvetJ Prince is still married to Mani until confirmed otherwise by HIM or HER and you're also right about Tamar, she isn't his type. As someone said before I think he thinks of her as a little sister. If Prince is stepping out on Mani it is with them twins. Who did have escort him to the Oscars. Who's picture did he take and lastly when on stage with Tamar who's dresses is shorter and above their knees. I noticed Tamar's dresses are NOT short.

booyah said:

Thank you it's the same thing all over again. Tamar couldn't beat Rosie with singing, but these are women he likes on a professional side for their talent not to be romantic with.

MikeA7 said:

What's patehtic is that you say this like it's a good thing...

8up said:

Uh Duhh! Lolita is about an HISPANIC woman. She's even speaking spanish on the record. If it was about a black woman the song would've been called "LaQuita"
and their would've been a real in your face black girl talkin'on the record.
More Bullshit.

Thank You! Finally somebody on this tread who's a realist.

Susan Moonsie was never his woman and Sheila wasn't either.
