Prince is in, but I am pissssssssed!!!!

I found out officially that Prince had been inducted by reading the NY Post. But, what I really found to be disturbing was the fact that the article's headline was Jackson Browne and some other fool I have never heard of and then they go on to mention that the sex pistols didn't get in and then they mention 3 or 4 others that got in, oh yeah and then they get to prince in real small letters. WHY!!! why must they hate on him in every circle within the media! I tell you it is a conspiracy, by Warner's and the powers that be. That is my peace. Just had to get that off my chest and I figured some might feel me. -kissy

Honey, there's no conspiracy. Prince is no longer a major star. He doesn't court media attention or release albums that chart.

It's okay, sweetie, breathe. We get him all to ourselves. Hey, I like it that way.

P.S. Who was the fool you'd never heard of? George Harrison? Get thee some Beatles records.

Granted, none of them have been all over the news lately, but that's all the more reason I wouldn't scream "conspiracy" over the decision to include one of their names in the headline and not another.

If it makes you feel any better, yesterday on Yahoo! News they had a headline that read "Prince And George Harrison To Be Inducted Into R&R Hall Of Fame"

Not only did he get headline mention, but was listed before George Harrison.

Peace!

I think there could easily be a conspiracy of his own making

If they put someone like Jackson Brown in the headline they know he will show up, give a speach and play
Prince may or may not show up, if he does he may or may not perform, and God help us if he gives a speach

"Prince...best?"
he'll whisper something, posibly insult thre hall of fame etc.
I think the media knows better than to bring him up to much

I think they were just showing some respect to those who had been waiting awhile. Out of the list, Prince had the shortest wait... no pun intended.

Prince not a major star? Why he even got mentioned during the MJ coverage on FOX.

They said even other 80's top sellers
like Prince & Madonna aren't selling much anymore...
