The best Prince impersonator .....

How many of y'all remember the malcom and eddie show? It was a show that came on UPN staring Malcom Jahmal warner (formerly known as Theo on the cosby show) and the comdian Eddie griffin. Man I will never forget the famous episode when Eddie Griffin impersonated Prince, See what had happened was, Malcom was trying to impress a couple of ladies he saw at the bar they worked at. so Eddie told Malcom he could get Prince to play at the club, cuz he knew a guy who knew a guy (y'all know how that goes)

So the ladies got all excited and everything thinking Prince was going to show up the club. The truth was Eddie didn't really know Prince like he said he did and he was to afraid of telling Malcom the truth, cuz he knew the girls was going to be disapointed. So instead of getting Prince to play at the club like he said he would do, Eddie dressed himself up like Prince and performered the rest of the night as the artist formerly known as Prince ... that ish was so hilarious, I swear my eyes came 2 tears.

What made it so funny was, He actually looked like Prince.
He was cracking me up with how he was making the Prince facial impressions, how Prince be doing in his shows and He didn't sing just a regular Prince song, He had this song that sounded like Prince and I couldn't do nothing but laugh at it ...

The crowd was feeling the performance and Eddie almost got away with impersonating Prince, but what blew the cover was Eddie ripped open his shirt, kind of like how Prince use to do back in the dayz and the rest of his body was darker then his face. Everybody figured out it was Eddie instead of Prince lol... Anyways even though everybody found out the truth, the girls still liked them and you know Malcom forgave Eddie for doing the whole Prince impersonation. I really liked this show and disapointed that it was cancelled after a few years, but I thinking if anybody remember anything from that show they gotta remember that episode, cuz it was just a classic.

Julian Ride could be a great impersonator. But he would probably not want to do that, cause he has talent

But u need to be a great performer.

Theres impersonators who have the act down but suck at performing, the mic stand and everything needs to be there.

I'm very much into performing, its the only thing that really makes people want to watch me. its important, thats why we love prince.

I saw the band Purple Reign in Las Vegas.
They were awesome.
The Prince impersonator looked and sounded just like Prince facial expressions and everything.
