Is this the same bio that comes from her website where she fails to mention that she was married to Prince for years and that he was more than just a guy who let her sing and dance? Once again, out of curiosity--do all Arabic or partially Arabic people have some sort of directory for these things? If so, Black people need one too so that we can squash debates such as: "Is Prince Filipino?" The message you're about to hear is not meant for transmission

I'm half morrocon/half somalian, but lived in Harlem all my life but I also know about anybody who carrys similar roots(ala Arabic or black). The way I see it, its all about Common sense I guess. As 4 he bios, I read many ones stated that she's PR(Including the official one,,,as I remember). | |

Assuming that she doesn't have some Egyptian heritage (I'm not convinced that she doesn't...at this point, I just don't know)...shouldn't the question be why is SHE lying about it. Prince couldn't weave this story/image of Mayte if she wasn't complicit. The message you're about to hear is not meant for transmission

He would honey I think I read some interviews where he "later" eknowledged about her PR roots(of course after the Egyptian lie). | |

UptownDeb said: Wow, I forgot he fronted like that. But, she could've passed you know. A long time ago I asked a classmate a question about a spanish word, and she told me that she was Egyptian. Prince seems to like the exotic-looking types.
[This message was edited Thu Mar 13 8:20:34 PST 2003 by UptownDeb] I'd take her. *********************************************

Maybe he feels threatened by dark Black women, and inferior to White women? 7is4me says: prince is afraid that dark skin women will not put up with his egotistic ass, and give him a kick in the old rump. | |

. Someone sensible. I also agree with David Eye. It can be fun to gossip though, sometimes. Although, gossip can be damaging. [This message was edited Fri Mar 14 2:57:39 PST 2003 by ConsciousContact] | |

Maybe he feels threatened by dark Black women, and inferior to White women? What are you talking about?!! Why do Black people, particularly dark have to be threatening? Why do white people have to be fearing/intimidating? And besides all of his women were not light-skinned. The only light-skinned one you named was Mayte. shygirl said: Why do some people have to make things so complicated?
It's pretty obvious that the Egyptian thing was centered around the 3 Chains Of Gold act. I heard early on that Mayte is Puerto Rican and Black. No big mystery. But I guess when there's no new Prince news, everything is a conspiracy. Also, since Prince is light skinned, it's no big deal that most of the women he's dated/married have been light skinned. Actually, I think Mani is a little bit darker than Prince. Oh my God. The horror. The horror. Thank you Shygirl. And Mani is darker than Prince, I never thought of her or Vanity since people like to compare the two, as being light-skinned. They had a brown complexion. | |
