No. You weren't wrong, John definitely said that P ordered them EACH a 6 inch sub on whole wheat with ONLY lettuce and onion. John even asked, "No mayo?"

P said, "No, John. If you eat like me, you'll look like me".

Lil' Bro would quickly learn that I would like to look AT him, not like him.. Mine comes with mayo and meat. For your own safety.

Yep! He'd have either fired me for speaking my own mind about my own food or he'd have seen just how "extra" I could be if you don't put meat on my sandwich!

A hungry Bunster is scarey.. I'm sure I could out-extra Lil' Bro if he tried to starve me like that. I'm a real woman and you don'tget curves like this on lettuce and onion.

LOL he'd have learned what it mean to be "EXTRA"

Oh god that is the nastiest sounding combo EVER. Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that uncooked onions make me want to claw my eyes out. Or the fact that I hate the taste of raw onion. Or the smell of them. I'd've been like, lil man, you're gonna switch those onions to tomatos or I am gonna tie you to a pole. I am not eating that.

Also, there's this guy I see around Chicago fairly often who is a darker-skinned twin of Prince, down to the height and everything. It's always a bit startling.

EXACTLY! He would find out just how angry a meat loving woman can be if he'd ever brought me a sandwich and it didn't have meat on it! He's have been my hood ornament!

Lol I don't mind eating a vegetarian sandwich -- but I DO mind eating onions. Prince's lil ass would find out quick how that one German Shepherd felt when he bit my hand -- I bite back, son.

At a kingdom hall in Canada. After the meeting P was waiting for his car to pull up, my friend's dad (who had no idea who he was) kindly asked him "do you need a ride? or can I call you a cab?" True story!

True story!

I've seen a few shows of the Musicology tour in NYC. P had a prescence about him, like you can just feel his spirit. If you saw him or met him you would know undoubtedly that is P!

When he was performing, of course. But he was a very humble person and off-stage it is said by those who knew him privately that it was possible to miss who he was. Especially if you didn't know him in the first place. My mum wouldn't have had a clue who she was talking to if she had met him.

I dunno about that. Maybe in the later years but back in the day, even going for donuts was a bit of a spectacle. Multiple limos, security doing the ordering (well, Duane). Nothing humble about it then.

Even if you didn't know exactly who he was it was always pretty clear that he was somebody.

yup..my friend's dad was a landed Gulf War refugee...he wasn't paying much attention to pop music while living in the middle east in the 80s and 90s haha

My best friend saw him and his bodyguards in a Florida airport back in June of 1995, at first I didn't believe him until years later when I read that he did some gigs down in Miami Beach in June of 1995! My friend said he was close enough to speak to him and said "hey Prince." and Prince smirked and gave him the "what's up" head nod and kept walking.

I know this is gonna sounds completely nuts, but I'm going to share. Yesterday, I was out running errands and walking on the street in a busy shopping center, I noticed a very "petite" man who was sitting on a bench, who had very similar facial features to Prince. He was wearing a knitted hat. I only glanced at him once, and he actually turned and looked at me. I just kept on walking and did not take a second glance, because I did not want it to look to obvious. I thought to myself "Nah", I'm just going crazy!! Now, I wish I had looked again, just to be sure. I guess I am losing it.

I waited tables with a guy who worked previously at resturant in downtown Mpls...(sorry don't remember which one) and he actually got to wait on Prince's table. I remember being like "No way! I've always had such a crush on him, he was all over my bedroom" this guy was totally straight but said "Krystal in all seriousness, he was the sexiest person I've ever met in my life"...

Hey even Jamie Foxx says that Prince had an affect on the men when they met him in person! No harm or shame in straight men admitting that Prince was sexy!

OMG Yes he did!! Seriously I about died watching the youtube video of him telling about when he met Prince.

He does use a vulger word when he tells about looking in his eyes so heads up

Anyhow, I've wondered ever since. Growing up I was taught "never to stare at Prince because it's rude". "How would you like it if people stared at you?". 100% true and carried that into my adult life. Clearly. :-/

I love that!

I've seen him quite a few times from 2000 t0 2004. When you see someone out of context you don't immediately recognize him/her. The first occasions, I thought I was mistaken. After a few more times, I figured it out - he was visiting with Mani and her family members who lived right night door to the building I was in. They all were just coming/going like normal folk.
