prince is black.. end of story Black people /WHITE ppl and eventhing in between come in different shades

i seen a dark fullblooded white person and ive seen a light as fullblooded black person who is much lighter than prince

i wish people would quit this race breakdown it only gets worst the more we break it apart the more

we are heading down ethnic -racism in a couple years it wont be all kosher when people start hating you because ur white person from the north europe or black person from north africa and soon c-section babies vs natural birth babies to --Gattaca now ... that would be a pretty picture

LOL white and black are social political labels. The world is full of 1000's of ethnic difference

a black person that is full blooded what? full blooded African on African genetics?

Red Yellow Black White are not natural genetic facts

and Black + White don't = Black

but 1+1+1 does = 3

Well I think the discussion we are having is nice-not offensive in anyway just truthful. As far as Kim, Prince and Reggie are concerned it seems to be great press for them all especially Kim that girl knows how to keep people talking about her As for Shelby, yes her outfits and chosen style distracts me especially when I know she can look better. As for her bald head-to each his own I'm not an advocator of weave and have never worn the stuff myself. I have long hair so there is no need to do that. I can see if Shelby lost her hair due to health reasons or was wearing weaves initially, but to just damn go bald for no stated reason is so wrong. As a woman our hair is our crowning glory whether short or long just sayin

^ and we got on the topic of skin color cuz some other posters felt the need to go there

I was gonna make a comment but then I saw this last pic ^^^ and forgot what I was gonna type.

I'm not a fan of Kim or Reggie. He likes what he likes and I honestly don't find him all that attractive, he looks like a regular Black man, that I see every day.

Everyone has physical preferences and they shouldn't be knocked for that. It's when you decided you're NOT gonna "date" (for lack of a better word here) someone or a group of people based on stereotypes of what you THINK they are like.

**distracted by the zebra print bulge again**

Um...

Oh yeah. As far as Prince's skin, let's keep in mind lighting, which folks seem to forget about. Not every photograph has the same quality or is lit the same. Also, P wears makeup which can also slightly alfer skintone. I doubt it has anything to do with his diet.

And Shelby's outfits are hits and misses. I have no problems with her bald head, many Black women sport that style and I admire them for it cause it sure takes balls in this day and age where every Black woman is sporting a weave down to their asses.

All I know is that her boots on Monday night were rocking and they HAD to have been custom made, I'm thinking by the same person/people who make Prince's boots. She ain't no small girl (neither am I, so I'm not trying to be offensive, it's just a fact), and she was stomping and jumping in those boots like they were sneakers. I want me a pair. Shoot. The upper part of the ensemble I coulda done w/o, it kinda looked like she wrapped herself with a bedsheet. And honestly, I don't remember what the other two were wearing, Shelby is honestly the only one I notice.

I feel like they kinda pick out their own outfits... but then again John Blackwell had on one of those Chinese pajama looking things with the matching hat and I don't know ANYONE who would PURPOSELY pick that to wear on stage.

LOL you made me laugh

Yes lighting affects people differently. But Prince was always very fair complexioned. He's probably not in the sun as much as he probably was in his younger years. But you can see in early pics around the same time as the album that make up or not he's very light, cause you can see his whole body for the most part and they don't put make up all on his legs and stomach and what not

but I always wonder does Shelby have some kind of condition or something because her head looks really huge. Was she always bald and just wore the hat scarves on her head to cover it up?

That's a very cruel thing to say about Shelby. I'm sure you're not perfect. Whatever her reason is for shaving her hair, is her own. Doesn't really matter whether you, I or anyone else likes that she did that, although we are entitled to our opinions of it, and I too prefer her with hair, but guess we'll never know why she decided to shave her hair off.

It's obvious Prince has major respect for her and they seem to be close friends. You don't have to like the way someone looks, but then again that person doesn't have to answer or apologize to you for it either. Shelby has a fantastic voice and I appreciate her as an artist. When Prince and Shelby sang "Nothing Compares 2 U" together, it was sung beautifully by the both of them. It's obvious Prince has a lot of respect for her. You'll just have to deal with her shaved head, which apparently doesn't seem to bother her at all.

What was cruel? How else should I have said it? I've seen people where their heads look bigger than usual, and it was connected to health issues. I asked WAS it because of a health condition. Please don't read ridicule into my post.

Shelby can do what she want.

You just went on a judgemental rant, based on what you think my intentions are.

WTH happened to this thread?!

Well, in a society where women are so pressured to be their hair, despite the song "I am not my hair" I appreciate her for wearing that look which suits her. Would I do that no, but when I look at her it feels liberating so I say go on Lady Shelby!

Well, let's try to keep this nice It's such a great thread and I'd hate for it to get locked for some b.s. o borrow a line from Chris Brown

WEll its not the most flatering look in the world, I will certainly admit that. U won't be seeing me bald, that's for sure, but like I said I admire her balls, and obviously Prince doesn't mind. She be singing her ass off and I'm sure that's all he gives a crap about.

I still wanna know where I can get me some Shelby boots.

Actually you are the one on a "judgemental rant." I was just responding to what you expressed in your post. All I'm saying is that no one knows why she chose to shave her hair. Maybe having hair right now is "not that important" to her confidence or maybe a health issue is behind it. Secondly, not too many people have the right-shaped head to be bald, whatever having the right-shaped head is suppose to look like. Either way, she chooses to have hair or not, her talent is more important than what she looks like. Carry on.

God, thats so wrong. u should like men for who they are not for the colour of there skin. Jungle fever? are u serious?

On top of that, who the hell needs to go to the freaking jungle to catch a fever to love a Black man regardless of his shade? Just being wrapped up in the arms of one that treats you good, is fine with me. Just sayin'

[Edited 2/10/11 9:18am]

Exactly, its about who treats u good! If a boyfriend told me he liked me better than the rest only coz of my butterscotch skin I would be seriously worried about his motives and totally run the opposite direction

Hate that word jungle fever, its so retarded and racist.

uhhh no. You said I was being cruel and I said her head looked big and was there some medical condition. Now how else am I supposed to say that for you not to be offended? I don't need to explain my heart to you for you to be ok with it either sweety? Let's not go there, don't try to come for me...

You made the judgmental ranting post. So end this. You don't respond to my posts at all if you gotta go there.

And when Sheila came out she fit in but stood out as a purple princess

More Kim & Reggie
