The Prince Podcast: Mayte People Magazine Article
.
We're joined by Dave Buchansky close friend of Mayte to discus the recent People magazine article, featuring excerpts from the upcoming book The Most Beautiful: My Life with Prince. We talk about some of the split opinions some fans have about the book.

I am listening to this and shout to the host for saying the stuff I have been saying. I am also happy how the male panel are showing consideration and sympathy toward Mayte's lost of her children as sometimes men can be more stoic.



And also Dave seems like a true friend to Mayte. I like when men have good friendships with women.




https://sites.google.com/...nuary-1997

I initially found this site on the org, but don't remember where. These are a few interviews concerning Prince and Mayte out of their own mouths. There are several interviews, I choose the ones that had the most info.

Star Tribune November 14, 1996- Prince talks about why he married Mayte.
Ebony January 1997- How they met.
Blues and soul- Prince on Mayte.
Pulse Tower Records- February 2000- Prince on Mayte.
Instyle-May 2000- Prince on Mayte.

Very interesting! Also, check out Ebony July 1986- revealing Prince.

I am not suprised and its once again it is a situation of loudest minority haters (aka unpaid promoters) vs silent majority supporting (who some sympathized with Mayte due to the vocal backlash and are secretly buying the book). cool



At the end of the day, Prince's legacy is going to continue to be intact.


[Edited 3/19/17 11:51am]



Did you conduct a poll? How do you know there aren't any silent resistors? Dont present your personal opinion as representative of the Prince fan base. Thanks.

Where did I say my opinion represent Prince's fanbase? :rolleyes: The org's outrage doesn't represent Prince's fanbase or Mayte's book wouldn't be ranking as high on at least Barnes and Noble. If a person have to conduct a poll for every statement they made this board would be emptier than a theatre that played a flop movie. I thought this is a gossip board, not a scientic/medical/techie one. eek



At least couple people stated on this thread alone and a few people on the associate forum with Mayte threads said they are going to buy the book because of the protest and to check what is the outrage is all about. And I recalled you even comment right here on this thread on someone who was going to buy the book because of the haters as a stupid reason to buy the book. So please with that poll bullshit.



For all the outrage, Mayte's preorder books are not only ranking top but her signed books are pretty much sold out. At the end of the day while people are trashing her loudly, the quiet ones are buying the books. That is how you do it, doing things stealth and not letting anyone know what's up.



Read a few posts back of the screenshots that people are posting from Barnes and Noble of how high her book is ranking. That indicates at least quite a few people ordered that book.



So deal with it. Hate Mayte all you want, but she was part of Prince's life and was good enough to marry and to have a child with and did couple released and unreleased work with him, and she is going to always tied with him whether you like it or not. Thank YOU! lol

You have no idea who is buying the book and why. Only 2/3 people at the org said they are buying it because they are butt hurt at the criticism of Mayte writing a tell all book about Prince.

This much is obvious though, people are buying it to read about Prince.

I hope you enjoy the book. Maybe after you can conduct a poll on whether it belongs in the fact or fiction section of your local library.

Thanks again.
Baby, you're a star.

Oh yea? so what are your thoughts on people who seek monetary gain by disparaging a man's private life after he's dead in any shape, form or way?

Geez let it GO! eek .

I have made know on several posts about this book issue. Several fonts already said today that Prince's privacy are no private because historical figures don't have the rights to privacy and Prince is likely energy now in another organism/form somewhere in this universe, so I don't think his energy is giving a flying fuck about some earthly, manmade object called book.

Check back some of my earlier posts on this thread to answer your question. I don't promote laziness.

Why all the hate for Mayte? Prince is the one who may have did these things, not Mayte.

.

Maybe if someone here can get to her book signing, they can ask her about the ashes.

@53:28, Dave states that Jehovahs Witness got involved after they lost the second child and she went to Spain. JW decided that somebody else was right for her after she left for Spain. What is that about? They chose Manuela for him?




eek

Mani was around since 1998. She is in the Come On video and he thanks her in the liner notes of Nrw Power Soul@ Even if the JW did pick her was someone putting a gun to Prince's head he did not want to married to her anymore why can't this women and her minions get that in their skulls.

When you read it in the context you will (maybe) understand why she talks of patience.

And yes, people meet for a reason. Like attracts like. It's always complementary. I met him too when I was 17 and nobody forced me, nor prevented it. Life, things happen.

Mayte had a mind of her own, she was not her mother's/family's puppet. Just like Prince. It might be possible to play such a game with a nobody but this was somebody used to advances. To seriously think he was played by Mayte's family makes him look stupid. Which he wasn't.



[Edited 3/19/17 14:09pm]

I think they fooled him not played him. They presented her to him one way and she had a whole different face later. I do not care what any of you say that dude did not set her shit on fire because of the baby. She did something. See this video below he looks unhappy when she tells were they will be living. See the 12:15 mark. https://m.youtube.com/wat...hS6IL9Ojao


Oh my gosh! You think he looks unhappy there? He looked confused to me by the question, then teasing. I didn't see him looking unhappy at all.

I pre ordered it last month and cancelled it today after reading People etc.

Amazon doesn't charge your card till it ships and you don't need a reason to cancel.

If anyone has buyer's remorse like I did; it's very easy to do.

I love you baby, just not like I love this guitar.~Prince~

She should be the one to do the talking. It's her book.

.

They plug the book.

.

They avoid discussing criticism of the timing of its release or the excerpts released containing some second hand, unsubstantiated negative statements. (pills, burned ashes)

.

They generalize about people criticizing the book as crazy fans or jealous women.

.

They revere her as "the one he married" and only refer to the second wife in terms of the second divorce. Interesting.

.

And plug the book again.

He did not look to happy when she mentioned were they were living but the rest of the interview is good. I am trying to decide if he was high 🙄 Ready to force her to st the interview. You know she so was miserable and unhappy.

In the YT video he looks perturbed by the questions but speaks lovingly of Mayte as a woman and an artist. He loved her she loved him. He seems to have this self fulfilling prophecy where he wants to keep secrets then gets all edgy when journalists want some insight into his life. If he didn't want crazy gossip he could have been more open. If he didn't want his wife going out without him he could have taken better care of the relationship. If he didn't want Mayte to have something on him he could have conducted his life differently. She is just writing about choices, which is the essence of life and literature, she won't change any opinions, books are for enjoyment not hateful judgements, unless hateful judgements are life to you.

If he was more open people would still gossip the truth of the matter is he did a lot of media after he left her and every celeb who puts all their business out in the street gets burned. The media builds you up and rips you apart. Prince was smart to handle the media in the manner that he did. Nothing hatful about the truth. All can be jugde.

It doesn't matter who's buy the book and thats none of our business, but the screenshots that people posted on here from online book retailer sites already show there are some interest. And what you just said about the 2/3 crowd are just proving my point of how haters are actually unpaid promoters.

And you are just a fan who has no idea what went on Prince's private life. I go to my local library both main and neighborhood branches all the time, and if I saw Sheila E's and Dez books and unauthorized Prince books in the non-fiction section, so will be hers.

Oh yes I am going to enjoy the book. Its coming from someone who actually knew him for 10 years and lived in his PP world not from a fan who think they knew about Prince but going by based on interviews thank you very much.

By the way her best friend Dave said book sales are good. Is that enough proof or you are going to question him because the book sales didnt flop?

Trust me I have listened to this show for a while. This guy needs hits to make money and now instead of interviewing musicians he is going the gossip route. I will post some things about Dave later and trust me this brother will regret having him on the show. I also think they goo goo eyed over Mayte and would like to get her on the show.

It's not her fault you twist her memories into your own conclusions then accuse her of things she never even wrote. Just like it's not her fault the media takes things out of context. Hello?!

We all know how their story goes. Did you expect her to make up some fairy tale? If the truth about their relationship disturbs you how is that her fsult? Don't read the book if you can't handle the truth. Don't read the book if you dont agree with her decision to write it. The comments here are 100 times worse than anything I've read so far that she's written.


Cosign. The best comment on this tread.






She can, and has the right to tell her story, to what ever level of intamate private detail she would like to. People can like it or not. But her inclusion of salacious and bizarre situations about prince, that she dose not even know if they happened, is not fair at any time, but supremely unfair to a dead man. If you think that is a hateful attitude than include me in the haters. I know that there were a lot of people here that were mean to prince while he was alive, but it is even sadder that people are supporting unfounded unbelievable sad and negative things about him now that he can not defend himself. Can you agree it was not great of mayte to included the "maybe he did"ash burning story and "maybe he did" drug implication stories? You don't have to hate mayte to stand up for prince when he can't...

Because interviews and books by people who knew much longer than M1 mean nothing. Dez and Sheila E's do not trash anyone while telling the truth. That is what grown ass adults do. I still say this women was a handful and that is the reason he sent her packing. No one is perfect despite what you minions believe.

It does mean something when the same locos who are outrage are the same ones who would have been escorted out if they even stepped at PP when P was alive while Mayte was actually lived there and chilling. Some of those same people should seek some mental help instead of worrying about someone who they don't know. Already Dave said one of the crazies have gotten a warning from the police for threatened Mayte, so I hope people need to check themselves and stay on the right side of the law. I hate to see an orger or some Prince fan getting legal trouble while Mayte is continue to do her other gigs and not losing any sleep of that fan rots in jail for doing silly shit but that is the price that person has to pay for getting all upset over someone they dont know.

Sheila E and Dez criticized Prince in the past so what the hell you talking about? They get a passed because they criticized him while he was alive? eek

You right, no one is perfect and that includes Prince.

-- These people pick and choose who they want to hear gossip from. Robyn got run off the board for discussing details about their sexual life. I bet if this book has some intimate details they will be fine with it.

And you are just a fan who has no idea what went on Prince's private life. I go to my local library both main and neighborhood branches all the time, and if I saw Sheila E's and Dez books and unauthorized Prince books in the non-fiction section, so will be hers.



Oh yes I am going to enjoy the book. Its coming from someone who actually knew him for 10 years and lived in his PP world not from a fan who think they knew about Prince but going by based on interviews thank you very much.




Because interviews and books by people who knew much longer than M1 mean nothing. Dez and Sheila E's do not trash anyone while telling the truth. That is what grown ass adults do. I still say this women was a handful and that is the reason he sent her packing. No one is perfect despite what you minions believe.

It does mean something when the same locos who are outrage are the same ones who would have been escorted out if they even stepped at PP when P was alive while Mayte was actually lived there and chilling. Some of those same people should seek some mental help instead of worrying about someone who they don't know. Already Dave said one of the crazies have gotten a warning from the police for threatened Mayte, so I hope people need to check themselves and stay on the right side of the law. I hate to see an orger or some Prince fan getting legal trouble while Mayte is continue to do her other gigs and not losing any sleep of that fan rots in jail for doing silly shit but that is the price that person has to pay for getting all upset over someone they dont know.



Sheila E and Dez criticized Prince in the past so what the hell you talking about? They get a passed because they criticized him while he was alive? eek



You right, no one is perfect and that includes Prince.

I am reporting your post.
The insinuation you have made against people opposing the book is disgusting.

Nobody in their right mind here opposing the book would do such a thing as you are implying.


I hope you are fucking ashamed of yourself.

Do any of you people sympathize with both Mayte and Prince? Or is it just Team Prince or Team Mayte?

HE seems unhappy through much of the video but nothing seems directed toward her.

Oh my gosh! You think he looks unhappy there? He looked confused to me by the question, then teasing. I didn't see him looking unhappy at all.


Any uncomfortableness I saw in the video seemed more related to the format of the interview (having to use a translator, having to speak brokenly while waiting for the translator to translate his answers). But at the 12:15 mark that laurarichardson spoke of, I just saw a look of "huh?" confusion, and then he was all smiles and laughed with Mayte. I didn't seem him looking unhappy, just confused at that point of the interview.

I remember in September when mayte was outraged and posted something, when Wendy Williams talked about her book and mentioned the baby. Now every dirty nasty rag and others, have her baby in the teaser headline, i wonder if she is still happy she wrote it?

I sympathize with Prince and Mayte. They both went through a horrendous time. My only issue with any of this is people villifying Mayte for speaking her truth, villifying her for putting out a book that they have yet to read or even know the whole context of what they are reading. They only have snippets and are making judgments based on those snippets. I'll reserve my judgment of the book and what is in the book until I read the entire book, if I do so. Instead of taking things out of context and getting all bent out of shape by those snippets, I'd rather have the full story.

I'd bet you a million dollars she is happy she wrote it. Please don't let her book ruin your life, it is not aimed at hurting you I bet. It will not hurt Prince he is dead.
