How come Prince wears his do-rag backwards, like a 50s housewife?

Same way Morris wears his in Purple Rain…

Coz he looks so sexxy and hot

That's just some ol Pimp Sh*t.

It's funny, the instant my Dad mentioned it was raining I instantly thought "Oh shit, Prince is gonna put some kinda crazy thing on now because of it".

Unless the dew-rag was planned anyway; Friggin called it.

He wouldnt be able to see if he wore it backward

I don't understand why so many people are focusing on that thing! People on my job- both students and staff- were asking me about it like I was his wardrobe person!
Maybe it would have been better off if he just worn a hat, but he didn't.

Personally, I hate being out in the rain. My hair suffers badly for it! I'm sure he was looking outside thinking, "Oh great...." just like any one of us [sistas] would have.

The performance was hot; I guess that was his "wardrobe malfunction".

i was thinking he would wear a hood of some type, when i saw the doo rag, i was like. "oh no!!"

Yeah! If you wear it backwards, it's called a blindfold.

Because Tora Tora is so ten years ago.

I love what Howard Stern said that he looked like I Love Lucy, Lucy wearing that do-rag from the episode when that were shoving chocolates in their mouths

Well, he wanted his hair to still be ok for Purple Rain. I'm glad he did that.

Watch Cherry Moon and Prince will tell you like he told Mary Sharon.

Mary: What is that on your head?

Prince/Christopher: It's Soul baby!

it's not backwards. That's the way the BROTHERS wore it in the 50's and 60's to keep they're processed hair in place and looking sharp!

I thought this was gonna b thread about the person that cought it in the audience....when he threw it...u know...

prince also wore one in las vegas at on of his shows! That is why
I love prince he is unique and wears what he wants cuz the Brother knows he looks fine!!!!!

Don't hate Prince cuz he's beautiful

Prince is the prettiest thing in life I've ever seen.Love the do-rag!

Good one.

um...it's called keeping your hair tight!

aka SOUL

He's a walking fashion statement...His suit was on point and in contrast with the press conference outfit...I couldn't have had more admiration for him than I already do...but DAMN!! He's the hottest, prettiest, sexiest, baddest, MF I 've ever seen!! I was wishing I was a raindrop....

I don't get why people are acting like Prince wearing the do-rag is something new?! He's been doing it since the mid-80's and he wears it alot
(UTCM, Diamonds& Pearls, Fury on SNL) Its his pimp style

Thank U!

I sooooo miss the facial hair! Also, isn't it a "pimp" rag???? I was looking for the tootsie pop and cane.

SCNDLS said:

he's done all of 'em...how funny....tootsie pop was done when he refused to sing We are the world....for the SECOND time...so bad ass...and he's had canes and not paid for them...remember that! The guy had to sue him to get paid, if he ever did.

Now THAT'S a REAL P-I-M-P!!! "Where's my bitches????" Uh, right here. . .

whats a tootsie pop?

It's so funny how people want 2 focus on the scarf. I love him wearing it. The only problem I had was how loose it became..I could see this bothering him because he put his hand up there a couple of times. Thats why (imho) he took it off, ran his hand across the hair, staighten the collar, gave a pimp look, pimp walk and showed everyone that Sexy Never Went Anywhere. I'm glad he took it off because my boy had that hair tight. That shit was handling the rain and had the most sexiest wet look u can find on a man. The outfit Prince wore had 2 be water proof... Eveything he did that night in the rain was historical. My musical hero was rocking that event in a real way. Purple Rain, Purple Rain, Purple Rain
