If the commercial was supposedly done because of the guitar silhouette controversy, why would they include a clip of it in the commercial? confused

Are you people out in left field or what?
The only reason P did a thank you ad is because of all the
talk over his guitar looking like a Penis...
It is all public relations. I mean, Iam not saying it was a
bad thing to do. But if there was not all that talk about
the alleged controversey over the guitar shadow..there would
have been no thank you commercial. Think about it.
He is worrying about his image because he actually cares about his image
these days...he does not want to be offensive...which is a far cry
from the old and younger Prince who did not give a damn.


I doubt that was the reason. It apparently was a good decision to do a "Thank You" message to show appreciation for all the viewers that showed support, and those in attendance that stood in the rain during the halftime show.

In this world of hate and envy, there are vultures and snakes out there that love tearing people down and enjoy bringing negativity into whatever good people try to do, so all this phallic schmallic talk is just the vultures biting away with envy. I mean let's face it...one man's success always leads to another man's jealousy, so what else is new?

Kudos to Prince for showing appreciation to his fans.

I love a good theory but come on now! If it was a gesture done for the sake of the so called controversy, I don't think they would have INCLUDED in the commercial the same offending clip that caused it in the first place! cool

I think he did this because he's in bed with CBS in some way. Maybe a TV special or concert is comming.

I don't think it's because of the guitar "controversy".

It might be a sign of something coming up (concert, CD announcement). He thanked Wendy, Lisa, and Sheila E. after the Brit awards. This is the same thing.

I think the days of Prince "not caring" about his image are over - and that's a good thing.

We could think a lot of things as the reason the message was posted, but the point is, he said "Thank You"...that's good enough for me.

Can someone explain why this is a big deal? Is it because Prince finally said thank you to a big group of fans at once? If he wants to thank me, he wouldn't have made me pay, a fan of alomst 30 years, when others got in free at Vegas.

Stoppit! You know he's a sweetie pie. lol Who got in free???



Well...I don't know how big a deal it really is but I thought it was a nice gesture. Kinda took me back to last week standing in the rain. As much as I despise getting wet, it was an incredible night. shrug

Of course I could push it and ask him to do a big ol' party at Paisley Park this year! biggrin

No. I am really serious. I have no idea why this is a big deal. Can you explain it to me?

While we were standing in line in Vegas, this lady walks up with a voucher that entitled her to two free tickets for the night if the concert was not sold out by 9 p.m. The fact that I shelled out 1500 bucks to be there to be witness to that kinda pissed me off. Along with other stuff about that night that pissed me off but shrug it's Prince. I guess I should be used to however he wants to treat people by now.

Did the tickets come with a package she bought though the Rio or whatever hotel she was staying at? or was she being comped for some other reason?

so someone paide 2.5 million dollars so that Prince could thank folks to watch the superbowl? confuse


There wasn't a sense that he might be up to something? Like a new album or something?



I'm not saying it wasn't a great gesture, but Grammy commercials are very expensive. I just find it odd that there would be one just to say "thank you."


so, eye guess that u have never seen the MTV Interview during the filming of Under the Cherry Moon. when we say thank U to another, who r we really thanking?

Se said she had gotten the flyer from someone who was an employee of the airport, if I recall correctly. But seeing the flyer with my own eyes and the fact that people could get in for free, comp or not, was not cool at all. There were Prince fans who go to Vegas every weekend!!!

Just wanted to vent. Back to the commercial. biggrin

Well damn! You act like Prince was out there personally pulling people out of line and letting them in for free. There are lots of ways to get Comp tickets for shows in Vegas, that have nothing at all to do with the act that is performing. That's just how it is in Vegas!

Damn, Prince can't win for losing...y'all just look for shit to bitch about and when you can't find anything...you just make it up! disbelief disbelief disbelief

So! What does any of that have to do with Stymie in the now "alleging" PRINCE is letting people into the Vegas shows for free?
