Prince and the "hata blockas"

I've read more than one thread on here with orgers not diggin' Prince constantly wearin' shades. Personally, sometimes I like 'em and sometimes I don't understand em. Of course, I feel the same way about anyone I see wearing shades at night. Who are you hiding from, it's dark out so they probably wouldn't recognize you anyway. But, I do love a good pair of hata blockas. biggrin In fact, everytime I see people who wear sunglasses at night, the song of the same name pops into my head...damn, how I love that song. Anyway, what is everyone's thoughts on Prince almost always wearing shades and if you don't have an opinion, than feel free to post a pic of Prince sportin his hata blockas.

disbelief Don't know why that man insists on covering up those beautiful eyes with those huge ass shades. Now, if he had R. Kelly's eyes, then I could understand.

Heh, that's hilarious. I guess for me it does kind of depend on the situation. I saw an interview where he wore shades and he looked hot. At the Grammys, not so much.
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

I loved that Kurt Loder Interview with Prince on MTV in 1999. He wore shades the entire interview....drooling Yeah, I wasn't feelin the shades at the Grammys; but I did love that white suit.

Yeah, the white suit was cool. He might not be homosexual, but he just might be metrosexual... the guy really can dress.

He does have alot of wrinkles now, but when I saw him perform during the 2004 concert, he wasn't wearing any shades and when he smiled it was wrinkle city, so I think the shades actually hid a couple of the wrinkles...probably explains why those shades are always ginormous. But, I think his wrinkles are kinda cute. smile

My guess is that he just performed two 3121 concerts Fri/Sat, and then jammed till 5:00am both nights....probably didn't sleep much at all on Sunday...hopped on a plane and showed up at the Awards! He probably felt he didn't look his best....hence the shades! wink
He gets it! That's why the ladies love him...batting eyes

Maybe Prince was trying to hide his eek reaction to some of those horrible acts.....
The man is almost 50... I think it would be pretty scary if he didn't have ANY wrinkles! THEN everyone would be crying "Plastic Surgery! Botox Baby!"
In the world of Org, it's Damned if U do, Damned if U don't, Damn!.

Look at Little Richard. He could look like that! Everytime I see that Gieco commercial, I hit "mute" and close my eyes. disbelief
(Jack Nicholson always wears shades to awards shows- and he wears those tired RayBan-looking things.) cool

Your lies, they cut me.
Now your words don't mean a thing.
I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..."

I prefer to see his eyes. But the shades weren't that bad.

Maybe the light bothers his eyes at night which happens a lot to people over 40.

Last time I tried to block out the hatas at night,
I wrecked my car.

I don't know where my head was that night,
but I do remember that in ended up going thru my windshield.

They keep people's energies(negative or hostile) and rays from bombarding you. They stare and you feel like you're under a microscope and vulnerable....very uncomfortable.
Sorta like shields on Star Trek. They can see you but when they fire their weapons you are protected.

Raise shields; RED ALERT!

When you know their intentions then you can lower them.
