yes.



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."

The commercial was footage from the halftime performance with the thank you note written on the bottom..it said someting like... than you to the superbowl and all the people who stood in the rain. It was a moment my band and eye will always cherish. And then "Prince" written in Purple Rain font.

Whats up with the prince commerical?
Did he do that because of the phallic guitar controversy?
Since when does he care what anyone thinks??

Probably cost much less than that, if anything. The Super Bowl was on CBS, as well, so something was probably worked out. Maybe it was CBS's way of saying "thank you Prince for playing in the rain".

I was wondering if the Grammy's and the Superbowl were both on the same channel.

heh, maybe I should stop reading on this and torturing myself. It's bad enough my TV sux so I missed out on the Grammys... if I wanted to check like every other minutes for him, lol... then I miss out on the commerical.

Well, at least E! still works, so I'll see the SNL repeat tomorrow night.

Oh well... I can't catch everything he does. I missed out on the first five or so years of his career cuz I wasn't born yet, lol.

I know there are some "your welcomes" here, but you guys rip him for NOT caring what his fans think, to 2nd guessing his motives when he DOES thank you !!
