Is starting 2 look more and more like the late Charlie Chaplin...Maybe it's the eyebrows or the little Hitler Moustache under his bottom lip, maybe the eyeliner-anyone got a pic?

You know what? I was just thinking that the other day... Prince looks so much like Chaplin. The way he moves sometimes, his mimics, his make-up. He has said himself on various occasions how much he has been influenced by Chaplin.

That reply is sooooo unacceptble. Prince has said many times before how much he idolizes Chaplin.

To me, the more I look at him now that he is older, he's starting to look like his father. When Prince was younger I couldn't see a resemblence in him or his father or really none of his family, but now I sure can, especially now that his father is now deceased.

Wasn't Prince's beginning skit on "The One" video basically a homage to all things Chaplin,
and don't forget Chaplin’s second movie in 1921,(this date also
appears in the very first frame of The One ,bottom centre screen) was called The Kid,which also happens to be Prince’s character’s name in Purple Rain.

I saw the resemblance a couple of months ago when someone posted this pic, sans Charlie Chaplin mustache and pimped-out cane. I was gonna go Photoshop crazy and add a bowler (I only added the cane a minute ago) but it was too ambitious, and hey...I just got lazy.

you shoulda put that in b & w for maximum effect, deb!

Oh, snap! You are so right! Didn't even think about that. Du-oh! I'll see what I can do....

And age it just a little....

HaHaHa!!! I love Mr. Chaplin. One of my favorites... That's a funny comparison though!

I always felt Prince had the special gift that he can act like a silent film actor because of all the emotions he shows just with his eyes!

Chaplin, Bruce Lee & Prince ALL have that gift
