I want to make a list of all the stand-up comedians that have mentioned Prince.

This is what I have so far:

Jamie Foxx:

- Talks about meeting Prince and not being to look into his eyes because he was "cuter than a mother fucker." Jamie says he went gay for 2 seconds. Does a fantastic Prince impersonation.

Jay Lamont:

- What if Prince did the weather? Does a good guitar sound on beatbox.

Finesse Mitchell

- Seeing Prince at the show, can't keep his eyes off him (parallel's Jamie Foxx's going-gay-for-Prince). "Boo."

Feel free to add!

I watch a lot of stand-up, so I remember a few...

Wanda Sykes dis a bit about being too old to go to a Prince show because he keeps going on and on 'til the wee hours of the morning.

Chris Rock of course did the "Prince WON!" joke in reference to the "competition" between him and Michael Jackson.

A female comedian, Simore (I think that's her name) talked about Prince dressing up in his mother's heels as a child.

The guy from Living Single who played Overton (John Henton?) did a bit about the first time he saw Prince in concert and the shock of seeing him wearing bikini drawers and heels.

My personal favorite is Tommy Davidson's joke about Prince ordering at McDonalds to the tune of SOTT - "...she forgot my muthafuckin' fries!" Now that's still funny!

that Tommy Davidson one is funny!

idk who it was but I remember Prince's website linking to it.

The dude got tickets in the front row and did a spot on Prince impersonation then Prince said "What are you doing in the front row?" and the guy fainted.

Bill Bellamy- Took his woman to the prince concert, witnessed "hard"brotha's being broken down by the music lol.

Watching his woman have an orgasm during "insatiable" lol, he's a magic leprechaun with tricks

OMG! Are yall forgetting Dave Chapelle and Eddie Murphy?

The best ones, according to me :

From "In Living Color" (about Prince ass-less pants)

... Chapelles show (hidden basket ball skills? )

i've seen the Jamie Foxx and Chappelle standup jokes before.

i need to find the Tommy Davidson & Bill Belamy ones now!

have you guys seen Jamie Foxx do how Prince would sing Brady Bunch Theme song? he sings it in the style of "adore". its SPOT ON!

Can somebody post that Tommy Davidson joke? I couldn't find it in youtube.

Thing on the Dave Chapelle one is that it isn't a joke. After it aired, on the radio the next day in NY (KISS FM) they got Prince on the phone and he said the story is true, outside of the outfits and such...they did play ball and Prince did win and serve pancakes.

Prince went on to say that it doesn't say how great a ball player he is but how much Charlie sucks

The Elephant Man bit is just sinfully wrong

there's a jaime foxx one talking about how how prince showed up to the club with a orange jump suit on and little cap attached. he said when he came in he had wind blowing and his chest hairs were all layed flat like he kiddy permed them.

Does "The Prince Show" from SNL count?

Also from SNL, David Spade did a Weekend Update bit where he was changing his name from the symbol to a corn flake or something.

Rosie o'donnell and Damon Wayanes have also mentioned Prince in their routines.

It's funny, while reading this, Finesse Mitchell just did a pretty funny routine about Prince on Comedy Central.

There was one on the 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' show here in the uk where they were talking about Prince needing his bible when he went knocking doors as a JW so he could stand on it to reach the doorbells. Cant remember who said it though.

Yeah, there was another one where Danny Tourette got asked why Prince got told off regarding his hotel room, and he answered "I dunno... coz his helmet was blue?"

But Phil Jupitus threw in your typical "He bought some paint.... it cost £19.99"

Jamie can sing! He almost does Prince as good as Prince.

I just remembered Margaret Cho's bit about Prince. She said a friend of her's was walking down the street in Minneapolis and a limo stopped beside her, the window came down and Prince was sitting there and asked, "Do you know who Prince is?" She replied, "Yes." Prince then said, "Good" and the limo drove off. Margaret went on to say she wish she was famous enough to do that - drive up beside someone and ask, "Do you know who PRINCE is?"

That shit is priceless, Jamie Foxx was Prince, his stand up jokes were the shit too

"But he's just like so pretty and shit, (What would Jesus do?), I was gay for five seconds man, I was on top, I walk out of there looking all sad and messed up and the guard comes up and says "You fucked him didn't you?" , How did you know? "I've been fucking him for five years now"

There was a later video of him sending up my name is Prince "My name is Prince, and I am the King of Munchkin land....Vanity I was her teacher, I went too far, now she's a preacher!"
