Do u know anecdotes of Prince's diva behaviour?

I remember one gig in the Ahoy, Rotterdam, Holland. I don't remember the exact year (2002?). During his performance of the song Purple Rain he needed to go to the bathroom to take a pee. After he did that he refused to go back to the stage until there were towels put down on the floor for him. That took several minutes and meanwhile the band kept on playing the 4 chords of the couplet. Of course I didn't know what was going on during the concert, but this anecdote was reported in the news the next day.

On the bitter waitress web site, there was a blurb about Prince eating in a restuarant and not allowing the wait staff to look at him.

xplnyrslf said:

how would you even enforce that?

If that is true, it explains alot. Mayhaps Tony Shaloob used P as a model for his Monk character? OCD!

His mental status needs to be evaluated by a professional.

I don't know. His food had to be handed to a bodyguard, then given to Prince.
Maybe he chews with his mouth open....???? THAT'S IT! doesn't want anyone looking at him while chewing food.

Christaro said:

that's kinda sad and ridiculous.

GiGi319 said:

I guess, that's why many people love him.

In an interview the twins said he likes to joke around a lot...

You're damn wright. Prince can get away with that shit, because his name is Prince and he is funky, his name is Prince the one and only...

Why are you talking so negatively about Prince aren't you suppose to be a fan?
I think that cat means "CATTY"

Everything Prince is We his fans have made him, we've spoiled him so much he thinks that he can do anything he wants and his fans will except it especialoly the diehards.

We aren't completely mindless. Other, bigger celebrities, don't necessarily behave that way. There are some who are just as bad, and they get found out, with the bad behavior towards individuals working for a living. Barbara Streisand is also a Diva.

He's a frak... I'm tellin ya now... last night, If I couldn't guess the alternate word in each of his conversations, the conversations had to stop. At one point, in one of the plethora of clubs we visited, he made me look at his forehead until I could actually guess where it was he wanted to wake up the next morning. Four hours we were there. We would have been there longer but Prince caught a shiver. It is the unwritten rule that once someone has caught a shiver we pause until the mext time. I call it fragility on Prince's part, he calls it fairness.

Oh, com'on... I thought you wanted examples of his diva-like behaviour. I'm telling you. It seemed diva-like to me at the time.
