Prince Should Now Appear at the 2015 Academy Awards!

Okay... we've seen him on the Golden Globes and Grammy Awards shows.

Next: We need to see Prince at the 2015 Academy Awards ceremony!


The gold statues will be handed out on Sunday, February 22nd!


Having won an Oscar in 1984 for "Purple Rain" (original song score) at the 57th Academy Awards, it would be especially nice to see Prince there... even if it is to announce the winner of this year's soundtrack winner. It will be 30 years since he won the award.



TRIVIA: What did Prince say when he accepted his award on March 25, 1985?


ANSWER:

"Thank you very much. This is Lisa and this is Wendy. Want to hold it? [Gives the Oscar to Wendy.] This is very unbelievable. I could've never imagined this in my wildest dreams. And I would like to thank the Academy, Mr. Albert Magnoli, my manager Steven. Bob, Joe, Bobby, Mark and Matt, who couldn't be with us today. And most of all, God. Thank you very much."

I hadn't even considered it...but okay...seeing as all he has to do now-a-days is show-the-fuck-up. He may just very well do so. shrug

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

As long as he doesn't wear gold, or he might be given away for best audio dubbing.

No More Haters on the Internet.

Thought I was the only one who found it weird he popped up at two huge award shows within a month-and-a-half of 2015. lol

Loved his 1985 costume though... the glittering dark blue cape/hood and lace gloves, he looked very otherworldly that night. somewhat satanic to the masses I'd believe (or just 'Weird') but I dig it cool Nice speech too.

Maybe eye do, just not like eye did before pimp2
