"royally rude" National Enquirer quote

Printed on page 36 of the Uk's national Enquirer November 15th issue

Purple Rain singer Prince clearly isn't a fan of rocker David Lee Roth. Both were dining and drinking at the Rainbow bar and Grill in West Hollywood when David sauntered over to Prince's table and asked, "How's it going?" After being completly ignored, he tried again, sating "Prince, Prince, I'm David Lee Roth," only to be told, "I know who you are." Despite the rude treatment, the former Van Halen front man refused to give up. He plopped down in a chair beside Prince, who then snapped, "No - you can't sit here!" That time David got the message and walked away, completely dejected.

Do these two have a history or is Prince realy this rude to people ?

It's not Prince being rude, it's David. Who approaches a table and makes themselves at home uninvited? I would have told him he couldn't sit there either

I have no doubt Price may have concidered David's invasion of his table rude, but he could have simply asked David not to bother him instead of lowering himself to downright rudeness by ignoring the guy.

I know Prince can be an arse but we should also consider the source. The Enquirer is hardly know for it's accurate reporting. Why tell the truth when you can make up something more sensational!

RIP sad

Reading this, I couldn't help think it was November 15, 1985. That is to say, I thought Prince had grown the fuck up.

Coupled with fact it was David Lee Roth. WTF?

I think it's especially rude to intrude when someone's eating. Terrible manners, that.

Sorry but how is P rude, in that someone uninvited comes over to him and starts pestering him and then sits down again uninvited - how is that rude ??? ok so Prince ignored his stupid attempts at getting his attention, maybe that could be considered slightly rude but no ruder than someone entering your space and sitting without request. ???? I would have thought that anyone who knows anything about Prince would know that you don't approach him unless given some indication is given that it would be acceptable - everyone is entitled to thier personal space and that includes Prince !!! so no I don't think he was the rude one at all !!!!!!!

peace

Maybe P is a little deaf he is getting on now and all that loud music might have made him a little deaf ??? just a thought anyway I don't think he was meaningfully rude - just not concerned enough or wanting to open a chat situation which if he had said anything it might have led to???

Everybody knows you don't let David Lee Roth join you at your table. First, he 'just wants to say hello' - and the next thing you know, he's eaten half your damn fries.

All P had to do was acknowledge Diamond Dave, and holmes woulda just went away. I'm sure he didn't think he was gonna sit down with Prince and chat him up.

I mean, I've seen acquaintances at restaurants before, walked up and said hey, and kept it moving.

Shit is basic. Prince can be bitch sometimes.

Nevermind. Reread the OP. If that was the case, then yeah Dave was being a bit overbearing.

But P could've still just said what up, and I don't want any extra company.
