Prince on The Rosie O'Donnell Show (1997) - an odd moment in P history This interview is on YouTube. P looked like he didn't want to be there and got offended by his unpronounceable name being made fun of. And Rosie calling P "very cute". 
Then I saw it was filmed in 1997 after the death of Prince's baby and his marriage never being the same after that. Still, P spoke fondly of Mayte when he talked about how he met her. Any thoughts? [Edited 9/25/23 13:54pm] | |

I liked how he put her in check for calling him "Taffy". That was a tough time for him, but he pulled it off. His performance was really good. | |

it rhymes with "good night." "Keep on shilling for Big Pharm!" |

He wasn't having problems with Mayte yet. Everything started going downhill towards the end of 97, when she lost the second baby and he met Larry Graham. |

Or when Rosie asked P how he came up with the symbol. "You were doodling one day and thought, 'That's it!'" | |

. I have always thought he looked like he was a having a good time in that interview and that he took the whole name thing in good fun, just pretending to be taking offense. Seemed lighthearted to me. . And that performance of "Somebody's Somebody" is out of this world. I’ve been informed that my opinion is worth less than those expressed by others here. | |
