i never said i wasn't jealous.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

i still stand by what i say, regardless.

madartista said:

These people are being mean spirited!

Stymie said:

i stand by it wasn't inappopriate.

if someone touched your chest, you private citizen, yes, totally. rock star sitting in a restaurant having dinner? inapporpriate. rock star walking through a crowded venue with mike in hand? fair game and to be expected.

madartista said:

not really. all of those scenarios should be looked at as inappropriate. you'd think people would try and be classy and respectful and keep their hands to themselves, but nope! it's absolutely pitiful.

i've read and heard about these kinna incidents time and time again, and it's a downright trip.

BeautifulOneJem said:

So we need to grow up as opposed to a grown assed woman touching a complete stranger's chest? She wasn't at fuckin' Chippendale's.

madartista said:

Come on now.

If it is to be expected, why does P has security to get folks off of him? What if Prince had had security escort her out? Would we be saying Prince overreacted or would we be saying he had the right not to have people touching him?

You didn't see his costume

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

my bad. that's not what i meant, but i wasn't clear. i was saying that he and Mayte hugging at his new club is much more interesting and worthy of a conversation than the actions of a woman who did what 10,000 fans have done before. since the time of the composer Liszt, musicians stir people into a frenzy when they perform. and for a musical artist to walk into a crowd during a performance is to open himself up to that possibility.

Stymie said:

see, i think that question proves the point. he did have security for the explicit purpose of intervention if anyone got out of hand. and security escorted no one out of the club for touching Prince.

Prince has been doing this for a long time, right? he knows how people will react when he enters a concert crowd. if he's seriously bugged about possibly being touched, he ain't gonna wander out into a sea of fans.

Hey! Watch now! Nobody bothers my dear LUV4U.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

and it doesn't trip me out at all. you would never touch Prince because u think it's inappropriate. u also wouldn't want someone u don't know entering your space. that's fine, and that's you. and while i wouldn't touch his chest, i would totally touch a outreached hand from the stage. and in performance, walking through the crowd is the same as offering a hand out from the stage, imo. we each have our own protocol regarding human behavior and what is and is not allowable. and because those definitions vary from person-to-person, people like Prince have security when they're gonna set out and walk around a crowd to help clarify what the accurate protocol is in each scenario.

and again, i believe that in this instance, nothing inappropriate took place.

Ok. I missed a lot of opportunities with Prince. Seriously. I was so shy and immature back in the days. Everytime, he'd look at me, I'd look away. Everytime he'd be close to me, I'd hide away. Years later, I wish I had.



So, I'd say to anyone who's not scared of approaching, speaking or even touching him, GO AHEAD and DO IT but STAY RESPECTFUL AND APPROPRIATE. Good luck and the best to those who'd try.

I don't think i could just grab him, but i would love to get really close to him and smell him!..i think i would pee myself actually if i got that close to him. To the person that touched him, good for you..don't mind the old folks in here.

Serena said:

Yeah, if I saw him walking thru the club, I'd just say "Hey, Prince, how's it going?" He'd probably ignore me, but whatever.

Now, would holding out your hand at the front row be what you guys are all saying is inappropriate? You know, wanting him to touch your hand

Alright, I've been thinking...
If Prince was to touch your barechest, what would you say? Honestly....Louder...come on....Louder..... I can' hear you

malbena said:

same thing to anyone else i don't know--a punch in the gotdamned mouth.

your example's piss-poor, 'bena.

It's not appropriate, pure and simple. Please treat others the way you would want to be treated. It's called manners and being excited is no excuse not to control yourself.

In May, some drunken broad grabbed his face and kissed him as she was leaving the stage. He kept on playing but he clearly was not amused. He was cool about it this time, but if enough people get the idea that it's okay to keep grabbing at him guess what? Things will change very quickly. He has no way of knowing who's harmless and who is not. It starts with one, then another and another, which can lead to a mob scene where people can get hurt including Prince. I'n not trying be harsh toward the thread starter, but I've seen it happen.



I've said it before. The man is not an object to be fondled or a puppy to be petted according to people's whims. I don't see why fans, papparazzis and tabloid writers think it's allright to behave intrusively toward someone simply because they happen to be a celebrity? Try putting yourself in their place...how would you like it?

And before I'm accused of being jealous, I've met Prince and shaken his hand.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I really can't believe you'd punch prince in the mouth. And then, you think touching his bare chest is inappropriate...well violence is even more inappropriate as far as I'm concerned...
Then, you still don't know me but I don't use poor language when I disagree.

malbena said:

I'm not gonna use poor language, as you put it, but if anyone male or female puts their hands on my tatas without my permission, I'm gonna punch 'em in the neck.

Stymie said:

LOL

Stymie said:

thank you. just because you used prince as an hypothetical example, 'bena, don't make it okay. not in the least.

madartista said:

I agree with the summation. I hate that the very excited fan has been crucified while sharing her excitement. Shoot, I text messaged everyone (friends/family and clients) in my phone immediately after I got off stage with Prince and it was 2am (only one person got on my case about it). Not exactly the same, but still kind of inappropriate and it was all because of excitement.

Andgodcreatedwoman1, I will say you put yourself in danger because the security could have jacked you up. You must be extra cute. Just kidding, but be careful in the future.

I know, like a lot of us, in your head: you and Prince are homies-lovers and/or friends but in reality...it ain't so.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I used Prince on purpose. I'm pretty sure and certain, you guys wouldn't punch HIM in the neck or mouth as you said it just because he is Prince. Bottom line is if you think it's appropriate to touch anyone's barechest, why wouldn't you feel the same about Prince doing it.

we all agree to disagree but in good terms

malbena said:

NOBODY can do it. Prince is a stranger. I do not know him so he can't freakin' touch me.

Stymie said:

Like I'm gonna believe that...
I'll let him touch mine for sure

AndGodCreatedWoman1 said:

um, can I smell your hand?



lol!!! gahhhhh.

malbena said:

that's you. stymie and i, on the other hand, ain't having it.
