Will the Real/Gay Prince fans pleas stand up?

So I sort of speak for myself here. Are there any other gay fans who aren't fazed by the "alleged" comments? After knowing what I know about the JW's I really wasn't suprised, disappointed but not irrate. I happen to be listening to The Gold Experience on my iPod as we speak. So are there any other gay fans out there besides myself who still enjoy and appreciate his music?

Personally I would have been more shocked had he said "I fully support gay marriage."

I think all of us know, and have known for awhile, that the religion Prince subscribes to is anti-gay. I don't know why people seem so suprised at the recent interview.

I'm not saying he's right, I'm just saying this shouldn't really have come as a big suprise to anyone. Until the day that he can't fit his own lifestyle into the confines of that religion, he'll keep conforming to those beliefs. I hope that day comes soon, though.

Seriously, how many artists do we believe support gays? I doubt B.B. King is out protesting proposition 8, and would probably say that it is against the Bible, but I don't reckon that would diminish his guitar playing in the least.

yes I said basically that above u, his comments and views do not affect me as hes not a big part of my life (only his music is) he lives on the otherside of the alantic. I have more important things in my life than 2 worry about what Prince says as it dosent affect me in anyway shape or form razz

Well being gay myself.. I really wasn't that shocked about his comments or misquoted comments which ever they may be... I still love his music but feel I wish his attitude was a little more modern about homosexuality and voting and age, his music seems quite intelligent but then really stupid naive things get said... I quess Im trying to say I wish he was as sharp and on it as the music he make is.

I wasn't. Ever since Larry Graham entered his life, this was to be expected. neutral

I'm still a fan of his pre-JW music. That'll never change. smile

You should worry more about what your FATHER thinks about you than what Prince thinks about you.

My father accepts and loves me! biggrin That's why I'll never pay another dime to Prince ever again. At least not until he wakes the fuck up and gets a grip and offers real appologies to the people that even made it possible to have a public opinion on anything.

I'm not shocked at all. Comments like those are typical of someone living in a closet. If Prince finally came out of the closet, that would shock me.

supa, i'm sorta surprised and confused. Didn't prince have to overcome a ton of obstacles and abuses to even get to where he is now???? I believe he got stuck a couple of times himself. so wouldn't you think he wouldn't want to stick or be stuck anymore??.....I'm all for alternatives.

Yes he did Myfavorite, and he didn't let it wtop him. Adversity and negativity just seems to make him stronger and more determined. He didn't whine and moan like some of these crybabies around here. lol

If Prince sued your ass for posting his pics, you'd be the first person we needed to console!!!! lol

The interview doesn't change the fact I think Prince is homophobic to a degree which I think is a shame.
