"Haim on Kesha Teaching Them How To Sneak Into Shows, Bum-Rushing Prince Stage as Teens"

https://www.billboard.com...236023846/

.

Their shenanigans reached peak ridiculousness in 2009 when they went to see Prince at the Forum in L.A. with their parents, who scored them prime nosebleed seats. Near the end of the show, Alana said Prince summoned “all the hot ladies in the audience” to the stage. Before Alana could realize what was going on, Este and Danielle had taken off in their high heels, sprinting towards the stage while their folks grabbed Alana’s arm and denied her the chance to share a stage with Prince.

.

Realizing they would have to sneak by security to make it all the way, Este said they swung their way down as on monkey bars onto the floor using some Mission Impossible-level parkour as they approached the purple velvet rope separating the crowd from the more exclusive “P-Hive.”

.

Long story short, they were psyched to watch the show from the way-better vantage point, except Este was still determined to make it on stage. “He said ‘come onstage.’ He said, ‘hot ladies, come onstage,'” Este reiterated as Danielle described her sister attempting to vault from a production table to the on-stage promised land in six-inch heels.

.

“If I can get on the production table, I can then hop onstage… I think I’ve done the math correctly, I’m gonna put one foot on this table, one hand on this stage, hoist myself up. Great,” Este said. But, on the cusp of glory, she described feeling a hand, “clock me. Hand in face. I fall backwards into more security. And I fall. I’m like an angel falling from grace.” As her sister was being hauled away, Danielle pretended like she didn’t know who Este was and kept dancing in the circle. “Danielle literally could not have given less of a s–t,” Este said. “I tried to barter my insulin pump. I was like ‘you can have my insulin pump. Just please let me go back out there.’ They kept me back there in quarantine. […] I missed ‘Raspberry Beret,’ which I really wanted to see.”

Prince didn't play at the Forum in 2009. He played several concerts there in 2011.

There's quite a number of bullshit stories in circulation from celebrities (and wannabees) since Prince's demise.

It seems like all of Hollywood was his best friend. An example is Dave Chappelle, who tear-eyed claims he was a close friend, but meeting the guy at parties or getting a phone call clearly isn't the same.

This young man with a talented soul died when he wanted 2
So he shall not B pitied, nor shall the guilty B forgiven
Until they find it in their hearts 2 Right the Wrong

But they knew each other for quite some time. Chappelle even appeared in prince's "Love 4 One Another" tv special from 1996.

So he was closer to him than you and me.

They are misremembering the year is all. For sure this was 2011 as you correctly stated and I thank you for knowing the years, unlike them.

During the SNL 40th anniversary after party, all 3 HAIM sisters are backing up Prince and 3rdeyegirl on stage and can be seen clearly in video of it so they finally did have thier moment but perhaps were inehebriated as Prince said at the beggining of that performance and they don't remember. Maybe someone needs to show them the video. lol

They also did play with The Time in 2010/2011 and were billed as MORRIS DAY & THE HAIM for a performance on Jimmy Kimmel that if I remember correctly, Dr. Funkenberry helped facilitate between the groups leading to them backing up Morris from his coverage of them & Taylor Swift way back then on his site.

I blame Funkenberry for any Taylor Swift knowledge but he was right that the white girl would get her masters back faster than he did and have full control of them.
