Alot of fans feel very weary to admit the like prince nowdays cos lets face it he has done some pretty embarrassing stuff over the decades...Some say it was when he came out with ATWIAD and alienated a billion people who just a year earlier were proud to be Purple Rain Prince fans
Others say it was when he started tryin to rap and no I don't mean the laughable Dead On it but the 'serious' rap like in Jughead or SexyMF

4 me it was when he decided to show his ass on stage during THAT performance...

way back when.

Yeah I was gonna say, pretty much from the start.

When he stopped doing the splits and became a racist.

It was a pretty embarassing time 2 be a Prince fan when Mr Nelson insisted on wearing a veil.

He looked like a man in an Arabian woman drag costume. If anyone has seen Carry on Up the Khyber..then You'all know exactly what Im talkin' about..

So the pink shorts and suspenders never bothered you?

Anxiety said:

@Anxiety

Ur replies make sense to no one..but Urself
Look around U no Org'er is diggin U-U aint packin em in like U used 2 and to boot Ur damn hornz are showin'

Anxiety's got a fetish for pink shorts and suspenders...he needs help, actually. Don't laugh, it's serious.

Not if they're strapped on to a R2-D2 Smurf ass bitch I'm not - come on now, my standards are low but they do exist...

Anxiety said:

r2-d2 smurf ass bitch

Oh...I don't know...HERE?!

Assless pants!! Anyone got a pic to post??


I am always having to defend him about that!!

But what an ASS!!!

Peace & Love

Prince embarrassed himself doing the Tick tick bang performance in Graffitti Bridge-he wore a spandex cut up body suit and had the biggest hair this side of Diana Ross.

Anxiety said:

this reply makes a lot of sense to me !

UptownDeb said:

What video did he dress that way in?

I bet if you throw that ass in the air
it will turn into sunshine




I mean, come on Prince, some of us had to
go to school the next day and live down a
flood of namecalling after that shit.

Come On

He dressed the old man at the end of his video "Come On" featuring Chaka Khan.

"Look, I told you that I don't want to wear these fucking suspenders."

Never. Accept him.

When he started watering down his music for "pop" success. Everything after Sign of the Times.

So Purple Rain is embarassing to you?? Because that is a pop record.

Bottom line none of us know this guy. So he can't do anything to embarrass us and if his antics really bother you. You are free to listen to other artist.

I find the rap scence to be really ignorant and embarrasing but it is not causing so much embarrasment that rap fans are worrying about it.

When he started having fans like Anxiety??? Dude he 45 years old. Accept the fact that you will not be seeing anymore splits. Unless you get up on stage and do some.

I'd say the "name change" and "Slave" fiascos.

Sometimes I would be 2 embarassed to say I was embarassed but NEVA was I ashamed ...I'd have to say it was when he had his har really, really BIIIG like in the Diamonds and Pearl era and the rapping and New Jack dancers ...Everything else was cool and fascinating. (slave face...hairstyles...AAAWWWOOO screams )

The only fans he embarrasses are the
ones who are way too damn insecure.

They deserve embarrassment.

Proud to be a Prince fan. Always have been, always will.

i've never been ashamed of prince or being a fan. f&ck em if they can't take a joke.

but .. i'll never forget trying to explain his stuff to some people in a tiny town way up in northern wisconsin, out in the farmlands. nice plump-cheeked grey haired farmer couple sitting side by side sipping coffee nodding and clicking their dentures together appreciatively as i explained 'funk' then minneapolis 'funk' then prince's role in popularizing 'minneapolis funk' and explaining that no, he didn't play with bob dylan. . . i got bogged down when i tried to explain his name change to a symbol which was in the news at the time.
