Prince takes over SF beauty salon

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi...53EOC1.DTL

Prince and five employees -- two hairdressers and three bodyguards -- took over the 77 Maiden Lane Salon in San Francisco for two hours on Sunday to prepare him for his show that night.

Windows were covered with sheeting to guarantee his privacy, but police were called when a stalker who'd been suspected of following Prince around town was seen lurking outside.

(John Konstin of John's Grill said a pair of tourists from Greece who were at his restaurant that night told him they'd run into Prince entering the salon and asked for an autograph and picture. He turned them down, politely explaining that his interpretation of the Bible is that he's not to have his picture taken or give an autograph. Prince is a Jehovah's Witness.)

The exact ministrations to Prince are top secret, but I'm told by spies that they weren't anything the everyday society matron doesn't do before preparing to attend an opera opening.

HAVING HIS PICTURE TAKEN???

What a lame excuse. He's trying to let fans down gently, fine, but whats with the biblical scapegoat? Are these JW's really scared the camera will steal their soul? lol

Guess all the album covers and tourbooks will be blank from now on...or wait, the bible will let you take professional shots, but no amateur shots!
