Fucking awesome!

I thought it was possibly a hoax at first, too. If it's not and Prince wants it removed I think he could probably make that happen with ease. It's his symbol and everybody knows that. Copyrighted, in any court of law, he's going to get money, the symbol removed, or both.

It's very possible that the comment means nothing, though. He could just let it be and do nothing.

Oh, so they pulled it? Officially? Since I am one of those Prince fans who didn't want it on there, cool!

Thank goodness the symbol was removed!! That is Prince's symbol

Actually, it was a piece of art made by someone else and then bought by Prince.

And she basically ripped of an alchemy symbol: http://www.navel.com/memb...age_05.htm

As ALWAYS, one hundred percent DEAD ON.

It bothers me that people refer to as "the Prince symbol;" it should be referred to as "The Symbol That Prince Commissioned to Respresent Him" or TSTPRCRH for short.

And, also all those nonsensical coroporate symbols should properly be defined as "Arches commissioned to represent McDonald's."

Bart VanHemelen also, I believe, ripped off Bart Simpson and Rip Van Winkle.

Were they trying get back at P for wearing some "This Is It-esqe" clothing at his 'Welcome 2 America' press conference?

Why does anyone even care , really Everyone knows Prince has gotten the worlds biggest chip on his shoulder and would sue dead relatives if it upset his precious fucking ego or deprived him of a few precious $'s

LMFAO x 1,000,000,000,000

to the person in prince's camp who felt it necessary to 1. respond to a gossip columnist and 2. shout while you do it ...

please dont ever do that again lol because what you've stupidly done is implicate prince in a negative way, and a petty way.

you sound like a dalek shouting 'exterminate! exterminate!' you do realize this dont you?

what a way to corner the man you work for, and leave him no way out. well done.

and if prince himself told you to make that reply in that manner and tone, then i guess he needs to sit down and have a little chat with grandma.

peace out y'all have fun i'm out lol

*clears throat* OK, so shouldn't this be thread be in the "All things MJ" thread?

The symbol was never intended to be on the album. But it was all a stunt to garner a little attention towards the album.

How do you know that the symbol was never intended to be on the album??

it obviously was...

the painter who painted it said that it represented things that MJ cared about and people who were special to him (something to that effect...i don't remember the exact quote...)

no one knew about the symbol being on the album til like a day after the album cover was released on the internet...(being that it was inside a bubble and the bubble was so freaking small...)

It's more of a sad commentary on the people participating in making light of child molestation than it is a commentary on Michael Jackson - who is dead now, guys, just if you hadn't a clue and that's why you feel free to shit talk. Please move on. This is a really class-less thread now and it only shows to emphasize prejudices and ignorance thus far.

That's pretty disgraceful talk from a mod. I don't really give a ---- one way or another about this MJ album or the prince symbol, but that's just plain juvenile and idiotic coming from someone who is supposed to set a standard of behaviour on a forum like this. Not impressed Mars, not impressed. Not funny, not clever, just ill informed.

Really? Because I see the constant positive threads and discussions about Michael Jackson as ignoring child molestation to the point of condoning it. Interesting how people can see the same subject from so many different angles. And by the way, I've always talked shit. Quite vocally. For a very long time. That's why you never see me in the "Anything and Everything MJ" thread. I have nothing good to say.

A bunch of you on ths org are just plain ignorant..no other way to put it. Do u read in your mind as u type most of the crap u do......it is one thing to have an opinon and express that opinon like intelligent adults that I think we are but sometmes I'm not sure and its completely another to just be clueless assholes!

By request of the thread poster.

The Symbol was pulled, it's back to an MJ album now.
