Tales of the missing rib...

Flippin' 'eck too many questions, not enough bandwidth.

When did this rumour first start? I think I remember it at school, probably around the PR days but I'm guessing.

What other funny tales have there been?

this one girl told me this one rumor she'd heard about p: supposedly he likes twinkies...he chews 'em, but doesn't swallow 'em. also i heard one about how he's the anti-christ, due to the fact that his first, middle and last name all have 6 letters in each.

how does shit like this start up??? disbelief




whistling this edit's just a rumor, it ain't true at all!!

Personally, I think the rib tale is more in line with his current beliefs. You know, like that story about Adam removing his rib so he can, well, and then God is like, "Quit that now! You're teeth will rot! Hey look, I turned your rib into this little cutsie here..."

Unless you're a skeptic ofcourse, then ignore what I just said.

I had a friend come over the other night and they saw my Prince collection and reminded me of this rumor. I had forgotten about it after all these years! I knew of the rumor before I even followed his music!. So this is what people on the outside STILL think of Prince unfortunately.

Prince wasn't the first, or the last pop star to have this rib rumour attributed to them.

I know Marc Almond and Marylin Manson also carried the batton.

I'd see it as an honour smile

Now, you know that Anti-Christ thing is factual. He sold his soul at the crossroads to Larry for the funk.

Larry has red shoes for a reason. Devil tootsies...

That he'd become some kind of Jehova's Witness or something.

Perhaps he is a tortured soul...the six letter thang only works if you add an 's' to roger...I'm still unsure what his real name is.

Yeah, because one of the techies used Prince's symbol as his name in the credits.

I'm think that it is Prince in the passenger seat. You know that scene where the bad guy just killed a cop on the highway. A car passing by sees that he killed a cop so the bad guy goes after them. Maybe that was Prince getting shot in the back while running across the field.
