NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.

Say it ain't so.

I was in heart with the heels. They were beautiful.

If it's about his feet hurtin', then it would actually be a very bad idea for him to quit wearing the heels. After 25-odd years of wearing them, his feet would be slightly deformed, and likely wouldn't even fit properly into flat shoes.

If he's not wearing them cuz he's "doing the Work", then that's also a stupid reason. It's not like he'd be banned from heaven/paradise/disneyland if he was wearing heels.

i couldn't give a rat's ass.

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

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

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?



Now wait. Let's think about this for a second. It's not like he can't wear what his wants or whatever.

It's not that.

It's just part of his persona, his image, his style.

I alsways trip on people who say "well, I only care for his music, I could care less what he wears or how he looks. hmph! It's his music that matters to me."

stfu !!!

I mean let's see, if Prince wore Khaki's, a Le Tigre shirt, brown topsiders and a Members Only jacket, okay, in purple, in the Little Red Corvette video, you would have not cared...

Or wore a tank top with black jeans and white sneakers in the Kiss video, you wouldn't have given a rat's ass.

Or what if you opened up your Sign O The Times record and saw Prince showing off his Wingtips with the peach clothing and leather jacket...you wouldn't have cared...

Raaahahaaiight!

The heels are what made Prince, Prince! He is the ONLY one that can get away with wearing them. He doesn't look silly in them, he made them cool, he made wearing heels a statement of individuality, of sexuality, of Funk.


Furthermore, it freaks the homophobes out. Good, I always thought. The heels also freak out the white folk.

The Heels are his trademark. It's all about being free. Uptown. It's about the FUNK.

"Tennis shoes and caps, now that's phat
Up until the day another wanna laugh behind your back
Sayin' we all look the same
God bless America, home of the brave
I'd rather dress 2 make a woman stare
I'm puttin' on somethin' that another won't dare

It's a freezer burn compared 2 cool
If U still got loot, then who's the fool?
Everybody wanna take the stand
Mind your own motherfucker, let a man be a man
I'm a tear shit up y'all, that's my style
These are the days of wild – put'em up!"

Or in this case, PUT 'EM ON!

Owoooaaah!

Dig the heels mf's!

shoot...alls I know is that if I wore high heels for 20+ years, my feet would hurt like hell.
So that's probably the reason he doesn't wear them anymore.

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?


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

Eeeesh. No I need more proof.


"only confused men wear loafers" lol

No, it isnot important what kind of shoes the man wears.
The sad part about this is someone telling him not to wear them and he follows their advice.

The JW may have told him not to wear them because of vanity or pride, which they claim is a sin.

But, if Prince wears them because he wants to look a little taller, I think God still loves him and doesn't give a rat's ass what kind of shoes Prince wears.

No actually, my posts here are meant to be somewhat comical!

And really and I agree with CalhounSq that as long as he hits the stage with them that would be great.

I'm not expecting anyone sharing my views at all.

It would just be a shame if this was true that Prince actually would start NOT wearing his boots because of religions or beliefs influenced by others.

I always admired Prince for being an ICONOCLAST, and individual and the freedom he expressed by "walking his own walk", especially in those shoes.

"The sun will shine upon U one day. If U're always walkin'your way"

But no-ones really verified this as true so we may just be gettin' all tangled for nothing.
