Really most of his fans have stuck with him through everything...the name change,the ex wives,Larry and all the music. His fans are dedicated, most of us try to defend him through everything he does, we've tried to convert non Prince fans and we even love Screwdriver that dude is loved So what qualifications do you have to have to be a P fan? Gone thru some stuff? Be Freaky? Or just know beautiful music when u hear it?

I think he knows that his fans Adore him.
