I was talking to a friend the other day about Prince. He brought up a time when I was trying to convert him to a fan. He kept saying, "Prince is gay, Prince is gay" (keep in mind, this was back in the early 90's when it was still pretty taboo) I was always defending that issue saying, NO he is not Gay!
Anyway... I heard about Prince performing on the Arsenio Hall show. So I called him up and told him to tune in to see the master at work. Well, of all nights for Prince to pull a stunt like he did, it just had to be this night. In the midst of one of the songs (daddy pop, I think) he gets grabbed by the waste by one of the GUYS and proceeded to simulate getting butt banged. 10 seconds later..My phone was ringing. Im sure you can figure out the rest.

Has anyone had a moment of embarrasment due to a song or performance etc etc when trying to convince someone how great he is?

Good story!

I recently re-watched that video. The "male bonding" choreography was hilarious.

Haha, nice read RonnW...

but still the Arsenio show is 1 of Prince's best peformances.

No need to be homophobic

prince has also been asking himself 'am i gay' since 1981.

Is it the same show which is on the Thieves In The Temple bootleg?

I've seen that episode lately too.
