Funny, I read it as HER story WITH him. Again, nothing at all disrespectful about what was said concerning him.

Is America the only place where people get upset and blame the deceased for dying? I mean, it is an inevitable part of life, whether he took maximum precaution or not...he's still the victim of the circumstance...not us. People are acting as if he's inconveniencing them or some shit.

Oh shut it. I personally am getting fed up with celebrities dying behind overdoses, this crap happens waaaaay too fukkin' much. I sick of my heart being ripped out, and my life suffering even the slightest disruption over these folks because we MUST respect their privacy. Fine, why in the heck do I have to know their azz even exist in the first place, then they can have all the privacy they want and overdose on anything they want, and I won't care. Goody two shoes for you if you can separate yourself from it all, you are so much above us mere mortals. Here have a gold star for your grand superiority.

No matter what, Judith Hill is going to live with what happened on that plane and the event that happened just a few days later. It's going to haunt her and I feel for her on that, but she has to lay in the bed she made. Having said that it seems to me she just didn't try hard enough to help him. Everyone around him said how he never complained or asked for help or pushed ppl away, it never occured to anyone to not take "no" or "I don't need help" as an answer? No man is an island. It's easy to sit here and say what I would've done but seriously if things went down like what she said on the plane with "Fixed eyes" that'd been it for me. I'd have asked Kirk to let me talk to him alone and make it clear to P that in light of what just happend I'm clearing my schedule and I'm gonna be Ur shadow until we get U straight. P could have dismissed me from his life in doing such a thing but atleast I'd have fought for him and with him. It makes me wonder if the reason why so many close to him didn't challenge him if they felt in their gut something was wrong, was for fear that they'd fall out of the Purple Paradise. A lot of these girls relied on him for their very livlihood as Judith pointed out she leaned on him hard and now she's on her own. For all the shoulda, woulda, coulda's, in this bottom line is there is no good, no silver lining. I just can't understand how everyone who was so close to him swears up and down there wasn't a single cause for concern leading up to this. If U look at photos of him at the Aussie shows and the final US shows U can see it written all over his face.

You don't read well either, I see. [Edited 6/23/16 15:32pm]

I read you had to walk into the conversation insulting a whole group of people in order to express a thought, I was done reading after that.

If you had of read instead of looking for a way to be insulting you'd of seen I did say it inconvenienced me because it caused me pain and this impacted my life in some ways, however small, it bothered me thereby bothering those people around me. If people don't want to have an influence in people's lives then stay unknown and then they'll have no influence. Simple as that.

I know I sound vicious but I'm protective of Prince.

Don't know if read the comments but the timing happens to be when she needs publicity the most.

IMHO

You read a different comment and not mine, apparently and tried to belittle the apathy that you assumed that I had about the situation. Throughout this thread various people are making comments as if he deserved to die. Some of which were directly above my initial one. It's OK to be sad that he died, I am as well. It's not OK to be mad at HIM for it. We can be mad at the situation, without being mad at the person. It's like getting robbed and others being more upset with the person that was robbed than the thief. [Edited 6/23/16 16:13pm]

The angry you see is quite normal, read up on the stages of grief. Nobody is truly anger at Prince they're just hurt, myself included and this will pass eventually.




I hardly think such ideas are only within the borders of America.


And just as a bonus.

I get it about the timing, but like I said, she really didn't say anything that we didn't already know.

There were new details that we didn't know, well it was new to me. What she did say got a lot of people TALKING. Even Dr. Drew, etc. So what I see is: Trending: Prince, #Princedeath, #princeprotoge, #Princeairplane, #Princeson, #Princefinaldays, #Prince Judith Hill piggybacked on Prince. Equals a lot of buzz surrounding Prince then u read about this Judith Hill chick. "Oh, she was on the plane with Prince? Hmm she must be important. Let me check her out". Equals: successful exposure. That's the way they seem to play this game of advertising, promoting etc.

She isn't and will not be the only one.

As it's been said before, it's the nature of the beast.

Honestly, I think that his more recent friends may have been too new to the circle to recognize a significant decline if he was carrying himself the same way that he did when he first met them a few years ago. Damaris stated that she was not aware of anything except him saying that he had the flu, either. Sheila E. seems to be one of the few in tune to what he was experiencing...being of similar age, knowing him for 30+ years, and encountering her own injuries on stage. I recall her mentioning that she hadn't seen him in person in about 7 months when he died...so she may not have been able to realize the intensity to which things had culminated. Didn't Apollonia post on FB that she threatened to fly to Minneapolis after the plane incident but before the day he died? André Cymone said that he e-mailed him and he responded. Tamron Hall, Stella Blu, Sanaa Hamri all said they talked to him in the last week also. Prince literally probably had thousands of people checking on him after that. If no one flew out, then he must have really been convincing them all that he was OK...even the ones that had know him long-term.

I get what U're saying and I agree that ppl who have known him for an extended period of years may have known better than those that just joined his camp or knew him only a few years or off and on. But even if he was good at hiding things U can't hide somethings no matter how hard U try eyes truely are the windows to the soul.

This photo keeps coming to my mind. I know some ppl will say it's hindsight, he was in the moment, that's passion, no it isn't, that's pain; be it phyisical, emotional, spiritual, or all of the above. His personal photographer also noticed something off when she took the last photo of him in Australia.

Just because it's common and everyone is a user, that doesn't mean I have to agree and overlook this point.

Nobody's agreeing with it. It's resignation. And nobody's faulting you for your opinion. Just acknowledging it.

I'm in between bargaining and depression with a dose of anger thrown in. And sorrow too, cause I think he was in real pain, both physical and emotional. So can you be in all of those stages up there at once?
