P is popcorn addicted PRINCE'S POPCORN DEMAND
Pop superstar PRINCE has an unusual pre-concert ritual - eating a bowl of traditionally made popcorn. The singer/songwriter requested an original American popcorn making machine for his dressing room at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland on Tuesday (17Jul07). Luckily for the Purple Rain hitmaker, festival director Claude Nobs owned an antique machine. A source tells British newspaper the Daily Express, "It was one of the more unusual requests we've had. "I'm not sure where we would've found one if Claude hadn't had one. It seems traditionally-made popcorn is one of Prince's favourite foods." (contactmusic.com) In God we trust. | |

Aw, what's wrong with salt and vinegar chips? They're way better. Anyway, all these "PRINCE IS WEIRD" articles are pissing me off. | |

He should come to my house. I always pop my popcorn in coconut oil, in a pan on the stove.
None of that microwave crap. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

None of that microwave crap. That sounds good, I must try this. Thank you Genesia. God doesn't just tells me how much he "LOVE's" me, God shows me how much he "LOVE's" me. Both telling and showing "LOVE" means to "LOVE". They go hand in hand. You can't have one with out the other. Something is spoken, then followed by an action. That is | |

Coconut oil not only has a high tolerance to high temperatures, it is also very healthy. Nutritional yeast is high in B vitamins.
Yo. What's poppin'? "He's a musician's musician..." | |

Teddy has had much financial trouble over the years, which is terrible considering what today's "producers" R being paid. Teddy originally got jacked by his manager, Gene Griffin, during the Guy days. After that, he kind of blew his money, and ended up owing alot. He's still doing OK though, and last I heard, he was trying 2 put together a Black Eyed Peas type of thing. I miss the New Jack Swing days. I was all over that shit in the studio, and on the dance floor. "He's a musician's musician..." | |

Uh-oh...we're off topic. Umm...uhhh...how does Teddy like his popcorn? We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

OH. Speaking of 'The Future'... I have the 12" of "Teddy's Jam 2", with like 4 different mixes. Now THAT's Bad.
Everytime Teddy comes up, I mention what he did with James Ingram and The Winans, which was SLAMMIN', and no one says anything. Do U all remember that? "It's Real" - James Ingram "It's Time" - The Winans (like jacked up go-go/new jack swing...) ~G~ "He's a musician's musician..." | |

(That is, until my man stole it for his collection. He needs to give that back. ) I think it was one of the first CDs I bought, in fact. Love "It's Time," too!
