LMAO!

HE must have missed the little memo that showed the bald patch on top of his head.

Cute he'd say that.

I love a Man who:
Wears More Make Up Than Me.
Wears Four Inch Stilleto Boots.
Changes His Name To An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Who Changes His Name Back From An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Oh And Most Importantly, Who Is Sexy Little Drop Of Butterscotch

This is old news, and I think the balding comment was a joke.

Does he really have a patch? Do you have any photos of this?

That'd be at least 1 thing I've in common with this well known celebrity, who's so dear to all our hearts.

"who can play 27 different instruments"

huh really? Name 15 that are significantly different!

“Playing electric guitar your whole life does something to you,” he said. “I’m convinced all that electricity racing through your body made me keep my hair."

seems like a joke. If anything it would make him go bald. Whole body electrolysis!

"Someone told me recently they saw me at my peak, but how do they know when my peak is?"

Maybe when you did a full 2+ hour show without out huge sections of 'guests' covering some of your older songs? AND the fact that you still play mostly thge old hits?

"I think I’m improving all the time."

I am sure you do! wink

When I listen to my old records I’m ashamed of how I played them.”

Now this makes me wonder. What does he mean by this? ASHAMED? and of what? some of the lyical content or production or how he played or sang them? and is this not the first time he has said he was ashamed of his old work? (saying he made mistakes is not the same thing)

These two quotes go together, he seems to be talking about his playing not lyrical content.

Maybe he is more proficient on his instruments than he was early in his career - practice makes perfect after all. Unfortately, if Prince thinks proficiency makes for better pop music, he's sadly mistaken.

Pull up his recent appearence on the View and you will see the top shot of his head. His best quote of what he will do if he loses his hair: "he'll buy some more."

I saw it. 'bout the size of a dime.
He exhibited it!

How's he going to deal with that?

Maybe after all he'll befriend Sir Elton John and find out his secret.

Apparently, it kept it from going gray, too.

Either that, or he got a new guitar named "Just for Men."

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

This is Prince we're talking about here. More like "Miss Clairol". lol

Andy is a four letter word.
