The fact that some of you still don't have a glue about how Prince got a large female fan base is a trip. Get a clue. The same girls are now woman who are still screaming at his concerts. That poster is a classic. Its classic yes but still scandalous etc and nasty--and no thousands of young black girls did NOT have that pic up...no self respecting black household would let their daughters put that crazy assed shit on they walls.

A teenage girl would not. I had this poster on the back of my bedroom door. Until my parents told me to take it down. I then sold it to a friend who put it up on her wall. Lots of girls at my school had this poster on the back of their bedrooms doors and the smaller version in their lockers at school. | |

However, the smaller version that appeared in Right On magazine was right in my locker at school. Anyway, there are worst pictures in Playgirl. Nothing nasty about a black man in the shower. | |

...for me to clown on. 
but seriously, folks: for those of you who actually think p looked sexxy in that picture...why? i don't see it...all i see is a brotha in the shower with wet drawerz and that looked like he was in serious need of bein locked up in ihop for 24 hours with non-stop food. That's quite true. This pic always creeped me out even though other people said it was sexy. I think he looks...well...like he's going to be moldy in a bit. | |

Had he been sunning in an hawain shirt in the week leading up to this pic?
Have a look, he's all tanned on the face, shoulders and the V of his chest.
Very professionally done...not! When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |

Prince does what the hell he wants. Imagine if he were a fashion victim all through his life as we (seemingly) would like him to be? That would be far worse, IMO.
Part of his appeal is his off-the-wallness. (to me, anyway). He can do whatever and get away with it. | |

It is a picture of man who happens to be black standing in a shower. Prince is not a white boy and I wonder if all this revulsion has something to do with that. My preogative to ponder this. The shower by the why is not moldy. I think you have an overactive imagination and can't deal with a man in his underware. By the time this record came out thousands of people saw Prince in concert running around in his draws. This poster was not that big of a shock and outrage that you are making it out to be. Some of you need to grow up !!! | |

No, I grew up in a household where race doesn't play a role in everything I'm sure that all the people on this thread who don't like this picture wouldn't like it if it was a white man as well. There was absolutely no need to bring up race in this thread and there was absolutely no reason for RD to reply to it...it just brings more attention to a comment that doesn't hold much importance to the subject/discussion of this thread. ~KiKi | |

I can deal with that but, I am not sure you can. Bottom line let's agree to disagree on this topic and stop tripping over a 20 year old poster that does not thrill you. | |
