Did prince get bullied at school?

Has prince ever spoken about getting bullied at school it sure would explain alot. I mean theres alot he could have been bullied for first off his name prince secondly the fact hes black there could have been racist bullying. Also the fact hes no bigger than a umpa lumpa would have made him a perfect target for bullies.

I think everybody gets into some kind of trouble at school,its just part of growing up.
wether he did or not doesnt really have anything to do w/his music or who he is now,imo.
if you're looking for psyclogical problems that might have affected him and drove him to be the workaholic he came to be, i would say his broken home as a child would be the place to start.again this is just my opinion.
i have to agree w/regina carman.this is all pointless and i for one would rather focus on the music and the legend we are all witnessing before our eyes

What the hell is it with this site you ask some hard hitting questions on here and everbody crumbles. Moaning about how we should only talk about princes genius as a musician fine but that horse has been flogged to death. Also the people moaning about this thread never post any threads of there own. What do you want people a whats your favourite thread over and over and over and over again god knows I posted a few. I think its incredibly interesting to find out what it is that has made prince the way he is. If he was bullied at school it would explain alot about his shyness and awkwardness around new people.

What you ask aren't hard-hitting questions. They're "none-of-your-damn-business" questions. You don't know Prince...so it's pointless to speculate on how whether he may or may not have been bullied may or may not have informed his personality.

I suggest that you get and read any one of the myriad of Prince biographies. Many of them cover these questions - not so far as the idle speculation on why Prince is the way he is - but the actual history.

He talks about being bullied or made fun of at school because of his height, 'all the time' it's on the Oprah interview.

IMO this is so un-necessary. You're attempt to be funny is "sad & on the ground".

Of course he was bullied back then and until this very day. Everyone can be a target of ridicule.
