PrintableAnxiety said: I remember when this was originally on MTV in late 1985 - I went *NUTS* over it, and thought his behavior was a riot. It was the first time I'd ever seen him on a television interview - heck, the first real post-Purple Rain interview I'd ever experienced other than the Rolling Stone print interview. I remember thinking he was an absolute FREAK, and I loved him! I don't think it was embarrassing at all - it was just a portrait of a young control-freak rock star trying to manage his persona. It was cute.
My sentiments too--except I was pissed that he cut his hair and all of them kids-dancers etc surrounding him..I was like "get them outta there!" 
I remember MTV showing commericals for this "event"  "Climb in my fur." | |

langebleu said: However Prince's humour came across in this interview, I remember thinking that the question about sexism obviously hit home, and for all of the excuses he mustered, the criticism was something he couldn't counter with any convincing justification.
I think his response to that question was great, as he said, it was just a movie. It happens. Now, if people want ot keep harping on that, so be it. ~KiKi | |

I remember MTV showing commericals for this "event" I remember BET showing the full interview AND the "America" performance as part of the "America" video every time.  How I miss Video Soul.

I didn't get the humor so much as I got that HE thought HE was funnier than a grandmother caught in a revolving door. I mean, okay, part of it's funny, but part of it is (and I STILL say this to the fool everytime I talk to him) STOP BEING SO IMPRESSED WITH YOURSELF jackass.
