The Artist Formely known as the Artist Formely Known as...

Ok we all get the joke. Journalists have been using it since the Musicology album. Can they now move along, drop the joke and start calling him Prince again? With his second number 1 album in the past 5 years, he deserves a little more respect! The man can laugh at himself, we know that, I'm just a lil tired of journalists laziness to simply recycle old puns?

How about the fact that most articles start out with "the diminutive rocker..." or some jab to that effect?
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Yup, it's sooo lame. They think they sound cool and smart writing that but I find it idiotic. Get over it already!!

Pint sized artist.

I hate the pint sized remarks. He's short. We get it. rolleyes





I really hated it when Mr. flavor of the moment, Justin Timberlake pulled that short microphone stunt while accepting an award on Prince's behalf. That stupid ass.

I thought that was plain disrespectful. Even moreso considering that he was there to accept an award on behalf of the guy he was insulting. Pretty classless. I think the 'joke' served only to reveal Mr Timberlakes lack of character and respect. I still think that 'feel better feel feel wonderful' was written in response to the numerous 'digs' JT directed at Prince.

I think Prince has gotten over these stupid jabs, he's been getting them all his life. But he will put it in a song when he's offended. Remember when C.J. named him Symbolina he wrote Billy Jack Bitch eek

U no they love 2 dwell in the past and throw insults at Prince and since Prince's height is the only fault they can find...they milk it until infinity.
