Do u know him personally? In order to insult someone u should at least have some personal negative experience with the person ur insulting. And i would assume that he probably enters into relationships with the understanding that he swings. There are married couples that swing. So before u start cutting people down u should have all the verifiable facts.

No one can 'pimp' Prince he seems smarter and wise enough to know when somebody is taking advantage of him or his music

It's not me trying to insult the man, that he cheats is a fact. There are plenty of stories to choose from. Or do you only believe what is coming straight from Prince's mouth? Although saying that it's "constant" was perhaps wrong. But I'd say if a lady gets involved with the man, especially nowadays, she should be aware of it and not act all surprised if or when it happens. If he's open with it and not acting like she's the only one then that's cool!
And some information I have are from very reliable sources. I've been good at keeping stuff to myself, I'm not the one to gossip around.

Ah Yeah, sure.

ReginaCarman said:

Have I? All I've said is P is, has been cheating and that is common knowledge.

Protoge is such a strong word for many of these ladies

Usually Gossip is defined as someone talking about someone without knowing all the facts or verification. Do u really know all the facts surrounding Prince's relationships to be able to assert what u have written? And if not why do u want to hop on the Proverbial Band Wagon, especially a negative band wagon?
Prince has written Wonderful, beautiful, and Happiness Giving music i would focus more on that and be happy than on subjects that can or can't be verified. Why live life on the negative side by cutting Prince down, when u could smile and be happy over all the good things and Happiness Giving Things Prince has done?

Regina thats so nice that you idolize Prince to the point that anything published, expressed in song or spoken about by folks who've worked with or for him and have even posted on this org and at HQ is meaningless and reduced to just gossip. someone talking about someone without knowing all the facts or verification? So if i say Brittney Spears was an insufficient mother, that's just gossip? Doesn't matter that she ended up in the psych ward as a 51/50 or that she lost full custody of her kids right? Its just gossip right!

The point I'm trying to make is that sometimes even gossip originates from truth. For those who have been following Prince throughout his career and have perhaps met him and/or his associates and/or worked with him or even dated him , it is no secret that the man got an issue with pussy. And by issue, I mean he like it and sometimes he likes more than one and more than one at the same time! If you think Prince is some kind of one woman faithful to the cause ride or die dude then you are just being naive and intentionally so. And newsflash, we like this aspect about him. A man like Prince can't be restrained by one female anymore than he can just play one instrument or sing in one key. That's what we love about him and we would never cut him down ... interesting choice of words.

What's the matter..?

still cant belive what lm reading here !!!!

to believe or not to belive ??

DesireeNevermind said:

Thank you!!!
Now I can't say that I LOVE that side about him but I'm definitely not hating on him and just hope he's honest with his motives more often than he's not.

I'm not trying to focus on the negative, Regina. He's got plenty of great qualities, he's sexy like no one else, and I consider him being a musical genius. But this thread wasn't about that, the topic was who's pimping who and I'm just being realistic. I can't pretend as if he's flawless. Besides, that would make him a lot less interesting.

Btw, I'm not trying to make it sound like all his ladies are victims or whatever. As someone else said, there's mutual pimping...

Not necessarily.Many of these people will tell you that it wasn't all peaches and cream.Just ask Jill Jones.The problem with being a Prince protege is,you get overshadowed by him.People assume that he's doing all the work and that you have very little talent of your own.It was rough for many of these people (Paul Peterson,Rosie Gaines,etc).

Whoa whoa whoa ur going way beyond the scope of what i am saying. If there was a full channel 6 news report on Prince and his sexual relationships i must admit i missed it. The Britteny Spears events are very very much different from what was being said about Prince. No Comparison. Be rational about this. What are u picking on Prince for anyway? And remember i'm the one who said that Prince probably tells the women he's with that he swings and wants sex with different women. Thats ok with me. Its sounds to me that u and some others have a problem with it , not me. i'm just saying stop cutting Prince down without hearing things directly from him. THere are always 2 sides to every Happening on this green Earth.

If u would be realistic for a few minutes i think u would agree that its alot easier and more money than being a waitress, or a Sales person, or a manager of a retail establishment. Yeah Prince is a Hugh Star. He composes many Amazing and Brilliant songs and musical compositions among other things. He makes sure his proteges get plenty of Adertisement and Billing. Look at Bria. Oh Prince was involved let me listen to her soundtracks. Realistic.

ReginaCarman said:

Um...I think you just validated the whole pimping point!

ReginaCarman said:

It's evident that you're not realing comprehending what others are saying on here but that's okay. And again, you're validating the whole pimping argument. I think you'd make a great protege.

DesireeNevermind said:

u have a dirty mind to say the least. Not only do u insult Prince, but the women who work with him. All Prince composes, plays and sings his music and then hires, or works with or co-composes with other musicians and singers. Thats music, thats Healthy, thats a happy way to make a living, and it brings joy and happiness to others. All that is in no way pimping!!!! This is a rediculous thread and a malicious one and certainly very unintelligent!
ANd thats about all the attention i am going to give ur unintelligent posts.

ReginaCarman said:

Oh please you are delusional. Well if I got a dirty mind, you can thank Prince for that! Remeber this is the dude that originally wanted to name Vanity Vagina or were you not privy to that info. He knocked back Susan Moonsie's age to make her um more innocent. Why would you need to do that? Make a grown woman seem like a little girl dancing in lingere and singing about sex?
Prince has had relations with most of his proteges and have written songs about them. He controls the music the image and the chicks have to play along and want to play along...then their careers end up being short lived because guess what....along comes another prettier younger protege. It is pimping and he good at it!!! Oh wait, mutual pimping cuz everybody getting something but Prince still ends up on top. Ask yourself where'd the musical careers of JJ, Taja, Apollonia, Robin, Susannah (with The Family), and countless others go? Nobody cutting Prince down, we love him even if he's a playa!

DesireeNevermind said:

So now u aren't capable of taking responsibility for ur own actions? And as far as misstating someone's age, maybe the woman wanted it that way, it may not have been Prince's idea, or if it was so what alot of women do that everywhere. i'd rather be honest about my age and get compliments for looking younger, but to each his own. And to be even more honest i'd LOVE to have sex with Prince, but i wouldn't allow anyone to call me vagina, i bet that was hype or an endearment from a "HOT" sexual relationship.

DesireeNevermind said:

bravo!! the only one he can't pimp out is sheila e because she has the drive and the musical ability 2 stand outside of prince's shadow. none of the prince protege's have made a name 4 themselves outside of prince's camp xcept vanity and carmen electra. and carmen pimped his ass royally maybe one needs 2 think about y hasn't prince worked with any male protegees recently...

i'll b waiting 4 anyone's repsonse 2 that

L4OATheOriginal said:

Because he LOVES women!

ReginaCarman said:

Well.... I'll agree with you on that one.

VenusBlingBling said:

Love is a term I'd use loosely with our man Prince.

he's got protege fetish. he has no control!

DesireeNevermind said:

I agree with you too. Makes me think of James Brown's famous words... "It's a man's world."

VenusBlingBling said:

Good reference. Even tho James says its nothing without a woman ( or a girl - eke) he still saying Men rule. How many times was he married again? Oh yeah, 4. And don't mention girlfriends and fiances. wooh lawd, playa in da house!

ReginaCarman said:

Excuse miss dazed and confused, but did it ever occur to you that how one thinks and how they act are exclusive of one another? You said I had a dirty mind so I said if and emphasis on if, I give credit to Prince cuz he sang openly about sex and good for him especially in a society that is so hush hush about it and hypocritical at the same time. And if I think about shagging him, doesn't mean I will! If I don't think about shagging him, I might change my mind if he's standing right in front of me. Now back to your statements...
You actually think Susan Moonsie wanted her age pushed back? A woman in her twenties to be pushed back to the teens? How shallow do you think she was? I guess you believe they wrote all their own songs too! :whacky:
Wanting to call Denise vagina is an endearment? So why didn't Prince just name himself COCK! Look if you would luv to have sex with Prince then cool, at least i know ur not made out of asphalt! But still, you trying to argue that there is no pimping going on under any circumstance in Prince's life and with any of his proteges is just pure BUNK! And to think that they were all okay with his ideas all of the time is even BUNK on top of Bullshit! You ought to do some more research, read some interviews with past associates male and female, artists and employees and then maybe you will have a different opinion.

DesireeNevermind said:

i still don't think its fine to call a woman vagina after great or amazing sex if it was that or a guy cock if the sex was that great to inspire such an endearment after sex. Give us all a break. And relax. i think ur jealous .
