Paris did her duet with Al Jarreau, so that kinda rules her out of doing a duet with Prince. I hope he doesn't do one with Ace either, don't like that kid. I hope he does a solo too, an AI contestant would just butcher a Prince song.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

Please dont do a duet P.

(if u're there)


Agreed! If Prince does a duet with somebody (please God no!), which AI contestant do you think it will be?


It'd have to be the grey-haired guy. At least that's half do-able...the girl would just wilt.

So what are we, halfway through now? I'm on the west coast, so I'm watching your responses to see if I even have to tune in. smile

I won't stop being a fan or anything, but appearing on American Idol would go against a lot of his claimed ideals. I'm not a fan of hypocrisy, and I don't throw that word around lightly.

Plus, in this day and age, the Internet has opened up a whole new way to network and reach a new audience. True fans of music will at the very least hear about Prince if they explore even a little over the Internet. Prince is still well-known enough to not have to pander to an audience this way.

Fair enough. You're right, his presence is definitely on the internet for true fans to find. This show is about introducing him to people who aren't actively searching for him (yet). It's exposure. And let me be very clear that I was EXACTLY where you are when this idea originally floated. I railed against it and prayed he wouldn't stoop to this. And the reason I can ultimately be okay with it is that it (hopefully) gets Prince what he wants. A hit. I don't necessarily agree with it, but it's not my choice. He wants a hit. He wants it bad bad bad. And he's wanted it for a loooong time.
And I won't comment on the issue of Prince and hypocrisy.


If Prince wants money, I'd be thrilled to fork over $300 for a 20-disc set of outtakes, live performances, etc. Why pander to people who only care when you're the latest trend? neutral

If it gets Prince a hit, good for him. But it will leave a bad taste in my mouth if he gets it this way.

You mean Taylor? Don't like him, either. lol Ever since they kicked my boy Chris off, I just haven't had the same enthusiasm for this show.

I love your optimism, mar, and we all want the best for Prince and his projects but one appearance in the finale jam of American Idol will not do any more for the sales of his current record than it will for Live or Meatloaf. I'm sorry.

It's not blind optimism. Entertainment Weekly recently listed the sales figures for Stevie Wonder, Queen, Barry Manilow, and others who have been on AI this year. Every single one has had a SIZABLE jump in sales following the AI airing. It may not take him back to number one, but I don't think he'd be the only person in a season of "legends" to not see a sales boost. If he is, maybe he should go back to only releasing through the NPGMC.
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark
