One of the best Prince impressions..

That one guy (Phil LaMarr) from Mad Tv. I was watching it one night and he actually did a good job. He really got Prince's speaking voice down reall well. Did anyone else see it?

Yeah, Phil LaMarr on Mad TV gets mentioned alot as the best Prince impersonator/impressionist. The skits with Phil as Prince are a riot ! lol

I love comedy. Haven't seen Phil LaMarr doing his impression but when I saw the title of the thread it made me think of Jamie Foxx, who is very funny.

Here's a hilarious scenario if Phil LaMarr's impression is as good as mentioned: Jamie Foxx playing Wanda the Ugly Girl and she encounters Prince, played by Phil LaMarr. Now that would be a skit to have me cracking up.

I did seem him as an extra in that!!!

Eddie Griffin did a very good one in Malcolm and Eddie a few years back. It was a little campy but otherwise dead on it.
