and she was right, we were brutal on her after that event...As she stated, she not a music head like that ...love her now

Had no idea what I was watching. Then I realized it was "her". Oddly she continues to refer to Prince as if he's still alive. Not that it means anything more than how she's feeling at the moment. She's clearly feeling like self promoting. I'd think twice about hiring since she clearly demonstrates she violated trust by shooting footage against policy, refusing to delete material as directed, then secretly keeping copies. And now bragging. I think our previous criticism was earned. She's a dilettante - she boastfully dabbles in others professions and passions. She's not a committed art director or journalist and it shows. Don't pretend you are a music head. If you accept the challenge of being a reporter, do your research - "Lovesex that's my jam". Clearly it isn't and you aren't authentic. Stop thinking you're being picked on, let's talk about your choices? We all have friends and relatives who pass on, and we all have moved our homes while working and taking care of our families. Think of all the more qualified people who could have brought value to that moment. You chose to accept the challenge, under qualified and unprepared, and the audience and industry graded you. You don't get an award for just showing up. Kids today, jeez. . [Edited 5/8/16 6:37am]

There are thousands who were more qualified, and he knew that. But HE chose HER....exposed her to things few get to see, and that's all that matters.

Sorry...but I really enjoyed this clip. Her stories were visual and made me feel like I was there. It's cool to hear these stories from younger people (who weren't big fans..or fans at all) that were in his presence. They looked at him through different eyes than any of us would have...She spoke well about him and stated she wanted to remember him in her own unedited way. She said he motivated her and she seems to be moving in the right direction. Great video clip.

Exactly. My goodness. People around here are just cold, man. Tough being around some of the types on these forums nowadays. No heart. It's sad...

You can tell she was geniune in her feelings. Isn't that enough? I didn't know the guy. I never met him. But man, did it F me up when I heard the news. Still F'd up to this day about it. And she knew the guy. To what extent, that's not for us to judge. But she knew enough of him for it to have an effect. That's her right. And it's not our right to pass judgement on her abilities or qualifications. He hired her, so she was qualified enough...period.

That's just dumb. How many of us knew him? I didn't. But that didn't stop me from feeling the loss and paying tribute who I saw fit. That's all that matters...is that he's paid tribute to. Nothing else...

"Jealousy that they weren't chosen"....Yup. Pure haters.
