I'm reading in another thread that maybe JW has encouraged him to not use his HIGH HEEL sneakers anymore?!

Anyone seen a photo or seen him in person to verify this is true? Hope not.

If so, it's madness!

That's like Little Richard shaving his head! Or Stevie Wonder not using his sunglasses! Or Mick Jagger gaining weight! Or Keith Richards taking speech classes to speak clearly!!! Or Rod Stewart slicking his hair down!


NoooOOOoooh!

i doubt it. ain't seen proof 2 this as it is.

All the recent reports have Prince wearing flats, but I think the brother deserves a break. I mean can you imagine what his feet look like after 25 years in heels?

reports? where?

lovemachine said:

Recent reports? Which recent reports!? Flats? What kind off flats, you mean loafers?

Eeeesh. No I need more proof.

You know you're troubled when your definition of "Doing The Work" is swearing off high heels.

I think it's kewl.
He looks cute in loafers.

People here on the org occasionally have reported seeing him without the heels. I haven't really given it much thought as I am not that worried about his feet.

What will we do???

During the celebration and at the a few of the ONA gigs that I saw last year, Prine was wearing these moon boot looking shoes with very thick soles. It elevated his height but they were flat with no pump heels

he was wearing heeled boots on the Tonight Show back in Dec., iirc.

we won't be able to see him unless we're front row, that's what!

but just read this one more time,

"JW has encouraged him to not use his HIGH HEEL sneakers"..
he broke up with warners because he wanna get free...
you know, he wanna get free, then you think he really cares if JW encourage him not to use this or that?!

I really hope not...

I remember a NPGMC report saying that he came out to warm up with the band before one of the first ONA shows wearing sandals.

oh my god the world is going to end now!!!

I'm dying laughing here, is it really that important what kind of footwear he puts on his dogs? I mean honestly, the man's a musical and artistic genius, if all you can do is complain that he's dropped the heels for sandals, or moccasins or clogs or wooden shoes or whatever the hell he feels like wearin', then you ppl have some serious issues

Supernova said:

i dunno about we, but i wonder if he's gonna start rockin chucks or somethin.

Marrk said:

my god, i smell a motive!

CryForLife said:

i couldn't give a rat's ass.


still, it's odd to think of him in anything other than heels.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Would be cool to see him in some Chucks on the court.




CryForLife, I'm laughing with ya.

What the F**k are Chucks!?

during the ONA tour in lakeland, fl., in early april, 2002, he came out for the soundcheck wearing open-toed sandals. he's got adorable lil' piggies, by the way.

for the concert he came out wearing those "filled-in" heels that he seems to prefer these days.

I dont know exactly is this true or not but If it is true, maybe it was becuz his feet started hurting one day, and he just had to take them off.

Rest assured there is always an orger who takes offense to certain subjects about Prince.

Who cares if he's gay?
Who cares if he's mixed?
Who cares if he wears high heels?

JESUS GOOD LAWD NOOO
I hope Larry didn't take him to those old man shoe shops like Father and Sons panic attack it's over Prince has lost his natural mind

i hope he still uses his heels. peace all

Well, us Janet fans were just as shocked when she wore shorts on stage and started flossing above-the-knee skirts around town. It was like WTF is going on???

We're just so used to him with heels, but I saw a clip of him performing with Miles Davis on stage and I think he had on flats then. He had on black denim jeans and a black vest with no undershirt. I was like "Whaaat"
