I prefer to be honest. But this thread isn't about me.

No, it isn't, it's about Prince and the investigation. Have you found anything out in the investigative records that you want to bring to our attention?

You could be right, I'm just embarrassed for him every time I see it.

Then stop watching it. Pretty simple solution. It's not like it the life of the Kardashians.

Hi Only-I really want to reassure you that the great majoity of folks on this thread have good intentions. There is a need, I feel (myself included) to just get to know the real Prince; peek behind the curtain. There is no harm.

We may be the "psychologists"...only attempting to understand, not "Kardashianize" him.

You’ve said twice now that your friend thought Mayte was using cocaine back when you first met her and Prince in the early 90’s. You also seem to be implying that since there are no videos of or police or medical records that the wine and pill incident mentioned in Mayte’s book didn’t really happen. I’m going to call you on your hypocrisy as you have no proof either of them were doing cocaine but you have no hesitation going on and on about this on the biggest Prince fan site there is. For the benefit of the uninitiated I think it’s fair to state you had a brief affair with him while he was married to Mayte. You won’t deny that at this stage of the game. No amount of Mayte bashing by you will ever make that betrayal of another woman acceptable to lots of other women. This isn’t the Mayte death thread after all, and if you discuss her on this thread I might discuss how a happier wife and marriage might have kept him free from substance abuse. Happy as in free from side chicks.

I don't see where she's ever knocked Mayte. Mayte is being discussed because of the wine and 'aspirin' incident. We will discuss any associate and their role, if any into this thread. You are a little too new here to be asserting yourself in a forcible manner as above. It's not up to you to dictate who and who can not be mentioned.

Quite frankly, he had drug problems way before, during and after Mayte. Things are starting to come out and and the pieces are being put together.

Condescending much?

I shall look out for the report on BBC news once you've all wrapped up your investigation, finalised your findings and contacted the media.

Warm wishes and kindest regards.

Commonsense dictates hardly any of them are right. Some people will cling to whatever theory they themselves prefer. I think I've already stated my opinion. Seems others feel a certain way then ok that's on them.

PennyPurple said:

I like you Penny but you need to get off your high horse. I live in MN and have been to PP, yes. Anyone can see the difference between celebrating his life and accomplishments vs the obsessive nature of this thread focusing on his death. Positive vs negative. You are right tho that the org has allowed this free-for-all discussion to continue. That isn't enough for me to feel so rest assured about its appropriateness. But that's just my opinion and I am also free to express that here. Your haughty stance has no effect on me other than to reinforce my opinion.

PennyPurple said:

Obviously I have or else I wouldn't have know certain facts that I've already laid out. Feel free to specify any lies or inconsistencies I've stated. I welcome it. But if this turns into some random person i know nothing about trying to dictate what I'm allowed to adrress then turns into a thread all about me. And thats really weird don't you think?

Camileyun said:

Oh and I see you misunderstood my Kardasian statement. Let me clarify. I was referring to the statement of feeling a certain way about seeing a video. The only way to see the video is for the person to keep hitting the play button. Unlike the Kardashian clan life which is broadcasted everywhere all the time that one cannot avoid knowing something about their business. Basically it's forced on you.

Both Andre and Dez have confirmed in interviews that Prince pre-planned what happened on

Dick Clark. It wasnt stage fright.

Have you ever watched or listened to a Prince interview? Especially in the early years? Go back and check some of them out...He's definitely uncomfortable. Contrast that with a young athlete with little interview experience, but with some confidence and no shyness. Night and day.
Don't respond if you feel the need to be snarky...this is just my opinion and I'm willing to entertain anyone else's opinion.

I'm starting to see why LR was the way she was on here.

ISaidLifeIsJustAGame said:

It's obvious some don't care about that. So, whatcha gonna do? *srug*

onlyforaminute said:

And I said I enjoy watching any P performance. I just felt bad for him at the end of that one, and when he told his band that it would never happen again, I don't think he was pleased with the interview either. Hence, his possible foray into drugs. Pure speculation on my part.
Believe it or not,I do know that the only way to see the video is to keep hitting the play button (and I've only seen it a few times over the years), but you may want to check your attitude and talking down to others if you want anyone to give you the time of day on here. You catch more flies with honey...

Camileyun said:

Ok then. You do you. I'm was just mimicking the old joke that it hurts when I do this, well stop doing it. That egg has been fried what more can be said about it. If being honest is talking down to others then so be it. I'm not going to do anything different.

ISaidLifeIsJustAGame said:

I know, and I believe Prince planned it, I just don't believe he planned it to goof on DC. He was freaking out and that was his cover. He probably knew he was going to have a hard time choking out the words, and he would not have told his band that, and that's all he could come up with. It wasn't funny in the end.

onlyforaminute said:

Honesty and sarcasm are not the same. Reread your post. I think you just like to argue and I'm probably not the first person to tell you that. But, I don't so

To the red: I second that

SkipperLove said:

EDIT--Would Manuela (corrected) have another reason to name Littlejohn as a dealer? Is she petty enough to try to incriminate a mistress? If Mayte knew she was a drug dealer, than I have lost all respect for her.

If Manuela threw this woman under the bus due to jealousy, then I have lost all respect for her. How little we know people!!! We have no idea who the villian is in this scenario?

After how many years on stage suddenly stagefright is a reason for pills?

People lsoe their fears for something in less sessions than P did shows per year.

And Dick Clark wasn't too happy with him either. LOL

We (for once...LOL) are in agreement here. I think it was both planned and the result of nervousness. I am starting to think more and more that P's public eccentricity was really just nervousness in disguise. Dez and Andre said it was planned. But others who knew Prince said that Prince told them it was nervousness. Ruth Arzate and Morris Hayes both said they discovered over time that some of Prince's OCD-like behavior and brooding distance before performances was really just nervousness before going out on stage. Stage fright comes and goes for people. I imagine some performances were nerve-free and other ones were completely nerve racking. After shows are casual, unfilmed and not obligatory--so therfore probably less stressful.

But I am sure things like the superbowl or natural broadcasts were a bit more stressful.

In the early days, Prince made the decision to be shocking on stage, this would take courage so I am sure he (like most human beings doing something outrageous and shocking in public) got nervous.

We can't ignore the fact that some of his early managers and contributors described a really skittish young man in the mid 1970's. I remember his music teacher stating that he was shocked that the flamboyant, sexually provokative extrovert he saw on stage was the same introverted kid he knew in high school. I reckon that his nerves decreased eventually but never entirely went away.

Much of the information from the investigative files is fairly recent. I would agree with you that if we were having this conversation 5 years from now, that may be strange.

This is the Prince Death Investigation thread and has been sanctioned by the Moderator. Not sure why the upset...

I kind of had hopes for you but naw nevermind. If getting nervous is your evidence that Dr. D is some legit source then your hopeless. A 130 pound Prince couldn't have been self dosing on fentanyl back in the 80s due to stage fright. But keeps overdosing on weaker hydro in the 90s. I really can't wait to see how this gets twisted around to insist that Dr D is a legit source. Especially given the countless interviews from all kinds of celebrities who say they get nervous. They all must be popping fentanyl to fix it. It's hilarious.
