In todays star:

"Prince is ready to do a 'George Michael' and go back to a major record label, despite swearing he'd never work with one again. The Purple One is close to a deal with one of the industry's biggest players, and appears to have forgotten his mammoth legal battle with Warner music. During the row, which ended up in the courts, the pint-sized performer took to writing the word slave on his forehead.
Pride
Chart-topper Prince has been releasing albums on his own label since 1996, but has never come close to repaeting his glory days. And stung by the failure of his latest disc News, Hot's favourite love dwarf is set to swallow his pride in order to get a big label behind him. An insider said: "It's a big U-turn but he wants a successful album. "Apparently J records or BMG are the favourites."

I absolutely love the names the British press call Prince - hot's favourite love dwarf, great!

Forehead???

I guess they better do some homework!!!

The Star are not always completely accurate

There was also a huge article about the Grammys in the London Evening Standard yesterday as well, but the pics in there were awfull and blurred, but I dont think it was the fault of the photographers, but in the printing!!!

LAdy MK, you buy the Star? Shame on you, but thanks for posting

I think - WTF are they on?


I read the Evening Standard last night too. It was so refreshing to see his picture and no accompanying statment about his size or past success.

Ha ha!! No I have to read all the newpapers every morning for my job.. Well that is my excuse anyway. What I find quite strange (and I am probably a bit biased) is that no-one seems that surprised that Prince performed at all. I mean he wasn't up for a life time achievement or anything, but he hardly ever gets seens at these kind of things and its a bit sad that he is playing second fiddle to Bouncy.

I disagree. You have to ask yourself why shouldn't he play second fiddle to Bouncy (lol) from the snippets I have seen it really looks like he gave her centre stage - it was her night. He came across as mature and very talented but still held his own with a "pop star" 20 years his junior. I agree about the lack of surprise of the duet or Prince appearing at all, it seemed far too natural. Nobody has made a BIG thing out of the 20th aniversary, v.strange.

Sorry, I mean in the news. Some of the papers didn't even mention that he sang with her, just showed the picture

That's not right. News wasn't even aiming for commercial success.
