I'm still trying to figure out who the hell Chelsea is. Is she really a model? A fashion designer? A singer? Or just some girl who thinks she looks pretty and hangs out with Prince? http://prince.org/msg/5/249995 | |

Looks like Prince,the Twinz, Marva and rest of the band had the place rocking. Out of all the models, Chelsea was the only model smiling, the others looked pretty dead and unhappy, although I know most runway models don't smile, but a smile never hurts anybody, brightens up the place even more.
(sorry about the triple posts mods,you can delete the two above, I guess others were trying to post at the same time so the first 2 posts couldn't go through) [Edited 10/28/07 6:25am] WHATTTTT? the place certainly didnt look rocking to me, ive seen people get more excited at the latest two for one at asda!!!!!

prettymansson said: dont like it..never did..its a throwaway jam with pointless lyrics..and stupid 20 year old ho´s.. I think Prince could and should be doing something with much more substance !
----- Yes, because all jams have lyrics with substance (LOL) It is a fun dance tune nothing more nothing less. | |

I only watched it once...and it was a bit painful. I'm trying to watch it again before I comment but I can't make it through. To think I was beginning to like the twins. This thing needs to be completely recut and they shouldn't be in a frame of it. They take fashion runway to ghetto fashion show...but not the good kinda of ghetto...the kind without flava. That walk is ...
well, I don't have a name for it yet. But it's not good. It's even too weird to be funny. The band and everyone on stage is completely cool. The video looks like HDV and is shot well. Chelsea: After this video, I'm less interested and it's supposed to be about her. She's supposed to have the charisma of a muse...the one that inspired this song...but this video brings none of that out. She's cute but that's it. It looks like the story of a girl getting ready for prom. & Why is she in the audience!? Just sitting. Why isn't the camera following her. Why isn't some story being told? Prince looks good but I don't like his place in this story either. It would have been better if he were more laid back in the audience...not performing. It makes his getting up on the runway less climactic... The coolest shots in the entire video are those brief shots of the designer. Prince should have been presented with that kind of mystique... What would have saved this video is a stronger Chelsea Rodgers and the absence of the Twins...the band has enough energy of it's own. Too bad because there's enough stuff there to make a good video, but it won't be recut. Why do you like playing around with my narrow scope of reality? - Stupify | |

I actually liked it, because the video still left some of the viewers inquiring exactly "Who is Chelsea Rodgers?" but now they updated the info on www.3121.com and explain it all. [Edited 10/28/07 11:16am] | |

Well, I'm thankful the mystery of why Prince & Chelsea were giving each other the high five in that picture is solved. Oh damn, I forgot to look for that crazy looking blonde lady behind them. I'm going to watch the video again. Shake it til ya make it  | |

 ITS THE RETURN OF THE SUCKED IN CHEEKS!!!
so, anyway....the video sucked by monkey balls...the twinz are horrible. prince sitting down singing the first half of the video sucks the energy from the song...Dude, your sitting down and hunched over? Other then the horrible eating already mentioned that about some up my feelings of the video... the song itself? its aiight. Space for sale... | |

I saw it via 3121 (Jam of the Week) 
Let's see if this video makes it onto MTV or VH1 and hopefully breathes some life back into the album. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

I can't see the last 1/5 of the video for some reason...
Glad to see Shelby showcased - I'm not even crazy about her voice on THIS cut but having seen her live this girl can really sing. She's showcased better when she's playing with Martin Luther but whatevuh, I dig her 
The video makes me like the song a bit more, I'm glad he had this professionally shot. I'm still just so-so about the song but I'm sure it was a treat for those @ the show. & WHY are people saying Chelsea looks like a man? She's super cute, leave her alone  I like the way he did her initials like his symbol, I bet Chris Rock is jealous!
   I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

Sorry sosgemini, but some of us saw her in person at the Macy's show, she doesn't look anything near drag queenish, she is a very pretty lady. | |

I agree I wish he would have showed his eyes and he wasent smiling in the video either..except at the end sitting down giving Chelsea a high 5. Maybe he had another allnighter b4 this was shot.
The idea of the runway..chelsea a model in the show...fashion..band playing was really cool.The execution on the other hand..mmmmm I donno. Its far from my favorite of Prince's videos but I enjoyed seeing him and Chelsea. Probably wont watch it again unless it comes on tv. Thanks for the post Savage!  U want to know the secreat of love and happiness? Love GOD with all your heart, mind soul and strength. And love your neighboor as yourself. | |

To make someone inquire or to build intrigue, you have to leave a few clues about who/what she is. It almost feels as if you know much less about her and you don't even care.
If they'd even started with her in another location it would tell something about her. The models are getting their faces, she's leaving a party or a class at F.I.T (like Mahogany), or a monastery or whatever. They're getting dressed, she's in a cab sketching...she rushes in, she makes her cue etc... It's a bit cliche but at least it creates some dynamic around her. This video gave her the dynamic of something fizzing out. Why do you like playing around with my narrow scope of reality? - Stupify | |

Ok thanks, and you're entitled to your opinion as well, I guess I just don't agree, that's all.. [Edited 10/28/07 11:42am] | |

So basically, you're saying they could have been more creative with the mystery of her...ok, gotcha! ...and I do believe they had more to those clips as they showed during the days leading up to the video where she was getting out of a car...hmm...might be more to it...we'll shall see.

Simple solution to fix this.....He shouldnt have showed himself at all until he came out in the end. Along the lines of "Too Funky" by George Michael. More models & a Prince in the end...not sitting down...lol | |
