Anyone remember that "incident" between Prince and Sinead O'Connor from the early 90's where Sinead said Prince threatened her or something along those lines? Was her allegation ever substantiated? Did Prince ever comment on the "incident"? Or was Sinead just looking for publicity?

That story gave me the chills. It was too ridiculous to have been made up.

He's response, printed in the same RollingStone article, was; "I have no idea what she's talking about. That never happened."

I don't believe it happened either, Sinead is

And Prince has proven himself to be a model of sanity?

RipHer2Shreds said:

Fair enough. But during the time of the alleged incident, yeah, Prince came across as the more sane of the two. Now had it been reported to have taken place in '93 or so... it would have been a toss-up!

This is from Irish TV last year - 03:45m - 05:00m

Well, i'm more inclined to believe Sinead's version. P being the control freak that he is, i'm sure he assumed that she would be one of the mindless bimbos that he could just control.

We must excuse these FAMS on here that think P can do no wrong. He did it its over lets move on.

What do you think Prince's motivation was?

fanatic4ever said:

Ignore his language...it's an inside jab, to get my goat.

What did P threaten her with? I can't open that youtube link.

Thanks

4 ruining a good song with her horrendous version of it?

What's wrong with that?

LinnLM1 said:

Sinead said in previous interviews that P didn't like that 1) she did his song without his consent 2) she wasn't lady like 3) she refused to allow the singing of the national anthem at one of her shows.
She apparently told him to go fuck himself and he retorted that he should "kick her ass."

I'm sure he threatened her. I'm sure that he even intentionally tried to scare the hell out of her. But I can't imagine he would be foolish enough to actually get physical. No way dude would ever risk going to jail by doing something like that. Plus didn't Hucky (P's bodyguard) say he was there and that it didn't happen?

Well she wasn't lady like

I'LL BE PLAYING THE HITS FOR THE LAST TIME ON THIS TOUR

FUCK that ball-headed coked out bitch! I never liked her, Never believed the story. If it was so true then why didn't she call the cops and press charges against him or even file a lawsuit? She went downhill fast, tearing up pics of the Pope on SNL, then at one time she said Prince tried to rape her. [Snip - luv4u]

Ok First Of All Sinead Just Wanted Attention. Prince Aint Had No Time 4 Her. Hii Was 2 Busy Plus Hii Was 2 Busy Planning Out Our Musical Future!!

I remember watching her on SNL ripping up the pic of the pope

luv4u said:

She was trying to be controversial

SINEAD O'CONNOR shocked fans in Chicago, Illinois on Tuesday night (29NOV05) when she blasted the man behind her biggest hit live on stage.

Performing reggae songs from her new album THROW DOWN YOUR ARMS, the eccentric Irish singer took offence when one fan repeatedly screamed out for her international hit NOTHING COMPARES 2 U.

She initially ignored the requests, until another fans screamed for PRINCE, the writer of the song, at which point she hissed, "F**k that f**king midget."O'Connor has refused to explain her outburst and a spokesman for Prince could not be reached for comment.

oh well no love lost
