I suppose it's bound to happen from time to time...no big deal. Assuming for a moment that the story is even true, I'll play devil's advocate for a minute and say that we view the story in the context of Prince's life experience, forgetting that It's also the life experience of the person who chose to share the story. I'm the type of person who keeps personal details to myself and you probably do too, but I'm guessing that the author feels she has the right to share any details from her own life that she wants to share. At the very least it's a reminder that choosing to live the life of a celebrity ain't all gravy...like many choices in life, there's a downside to it. Right or wrong, I think P realizes that it comes with the territory. I read it because I'd never heard of Tatiana and wanted to know who she was, other than that it wasn't particularly interesting. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

Wendy Williams read this yesterday and I was going , especially at the part when Prince and Tatiana met up again. Prince was looking out for another artist and like what someone said before, I wouldn't be shocked if Prince and Michael Jackson were acquaintances or even friends. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

wow- what a story. But I think Prince and MJ are friends, or at least that have an artistic respect for each other. If they did a duo together- that would be hott! "So shall it be written, so shall it be sung..." | |

I don't think he was angry at her about what she said about MJ. I think he was angry at her, because she shared her story at all, which is not very cool and he was right too, because she shared her story about Prince as well. 18 August 2007, O2 Arena, London

Let's see: after Chick Huntsberry died, a former bodyguard who dissed gossip on Prince in exchange for money to fund his coke habit, Prince set up a concert to support his family. Now look at what Prince did after Bonnie Boyer died. Or what he did when Levi Seacer and Tony Mosely sued him for money he owed them. © Bart Van Hemelen

Oh please. Plenty of Prince songs are about personal stuff. Hell, he made an entire album about how Mayte had been unfaithful. You can't really understand most Prince songs unless you know about the personal stuff. © Bart Van Hemelen

good point. But he has done a pretty good job keeping his personal life out of the tabloids- compared to many celebs- hence why a story like this one gets so much attention. Especially so many years after the fact. Who really cares what this girl has to say now??? Name dropping is all she's got. Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"

candy2277 said: The text below is taken from a book written by Tatiana ( the woman who was in Micheal Jackson's video the way you make me feel). I got this from www.panachereport.com. I'm posting it because I'm not sure if anybody knows this because I didn't.
Text: Tatiana adds, she met Prince at her birthday party. She was taken at how beautiful he was in person, even more so than on camera. She asked him to dance, everyone in the club stopped to watch. When the party ended, Prince invited her for a ride in his limo. They rode around for a couple of hours, listening to demos of his new music. He asked her to go to his hotel, she did. At one point, while they were talking, Prince reached over and pulled her top down. She was shocked and said, “I thought you were shy!” Referring to my breasts, he said, “They’re so beautiful!” Next he led me to his big walk-in closet. He had hundreds of suits in every color. It was 4.a.m in the morning; he invited me to stay, promising to take me home in the morning. I agreed and he gave me a pair of silk pajamas and he put on a black Lycra cat suit. We kissed and cuddled as we drifted off to sleep. After that first date, Prince and I went out a few more times. One time, he sent his brother, Dwain in a Rolls Royce to pick me up. I brought him a birthday gift, a belt that spelled out Gemini. Since I knew he didn’t like to be handed gifts, Dwain promised to give it to him later. During the next several months, I shared a few more romantic interludes with Prince. There were moments of passion but he never went too far (they never had sex). The closeness we had, however, was more important than sex. We talked and talked, there was nothing we didn’t talk about, And we would laugh hysterically. Prince is wonderful but he is also eccentric. Along with the brilliance, there is a temperamental side and I’ve seen both his Dr. Jekyll and his Mr. Hyde. His mood could change at the drop of a hat. He’d be fine one minute, then dark, dramatic and withdrawn the next. Prince and I lost touch for about four years. We met by chance one night at a club and started talking about an interview I had given to the Star tabloid during the scandal involving Michael Jackson and the underage boy. Prince was upset that I had spoken to the tabloid; he attacked me for my comments and he was especially bothered by a line that quoted me as saying that Michael would never get married. He shouted, “Did you need the money that bad?” Are you that poor-that broke, that you sell your story to the tabloids? Prince in a cat suit...wow he was a FREAK. This sounds a little too freaky for him but as someone else said here, TOTALLY BELIEVABLE. She was ready to get down...I wonder why they never had sex? | |

Actually, I had read something a long time ago that say Prince and Michael were cool and that Prince had been out to the Jacksons' home for dinner and had a crush on Latoya. This was awhile back, but I just wondered about what year this would have been in. It seems like it was when the Jacksons still existed and were popular as a band and maybe before Prince's career really took off. Has anyone else heard this story before? | |

Prince pulling down your shirt and saying your breasts are beautiful, then kissing and cuddling until you drift off to sleep? That's what I call a birthday gift. To hell with the cake! perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

Unless said president gets "Head" in the oval office then the lines are sho nuf blurred. Maybe Bill's a Prince fan too. Didn't Prince say "Even the President flies in to worship a thang called fame"???? LOL! | |

I'd like to point out a few things:
1. Many times when one speaks to a reporter, the story gets edited to an unrecognized state. 2. Corrections to the misstated story, the next day, are on page 2 in a small section at the bottom of the page. Therefore, what was stated in major headlines is what's taken for rote. Not talking to the press has it's advantages. 3. When someone is having legal difficulties, the justice system needs to play out. Those who use the opportunity to make $$, all of a sudden with dirt, are "bottom feeders". 4.Tatiana looks her age, then some. My opinion. 5.Tatiana is a bottom feeder. Based on her actions. | |
