I can't stand that shit that P wears in his ears!!!! It's horrible! Ellen calls it "earring bling." When asked if she wanted to try them on, she's like NO. Prince has mood swings worse than a woman on her period! One day he's up [Leno], next day he's down and all shy and shit. His personality sucked today. Ellen got him some boxers. You would've thought she bought him crack!

I LOATHE those stupid moonwraps. And it's bad enough when Prince wears them...I saw someone on the bus a while back who was wearing them with a Prince-symbol painter's cap and I just wanted to say "oh, honey, no no no..." (apologies if that person is reading this, but really...oh honey, no no no!).

Prince-garb is pretty gaudy overall.


"PRINCE LIVE IN LAS VEGAS": what haunts me about that DVD is the image of that full-figured woman in glasses that turns up several times in that Hideous, Hideous shirt of Prince's Rave Head. I think that t-shirt jiggles on to (un2?) my tv sety during the sound check, then gyrates onstage during "1+1+1 is 3". That is a gawdawful t-shirt.

Much worse than the earwraps-that's kind of Deep Space 9-ish.

the earwraps have gotta be one of the most vomitrocious accessories p has ever slapped on his body....

aw now, i knew this was gonna happen eventually...i DO know her, and she's funky. i think you gotta get the full effect of her to truly recognize her awesomeness.

and she doesn't wear moonwraps!

Does anyone own one? They look like they would hurt.

Sometimes it seems that when Prince does talk shows, the host has to embarass him. Rosie O'Donnell's "Taffy";Ellen's "Earring Bling", Letterman's "symbol on a stick"....sometimes it makes me wonder if Prince really is a dork and I am blinded by the cool music.

Is wearing an ear-wrap equivilant to wearing Mr. Spock ears ?

"Live Long and Prosper"-Mr. Spock

"May U Live 2 See the Dawn"-Prince

Even a more vomitrocious accessory than Kim Bassinger?

I am not critisizing HER in any way-she's obiviously having a good time-it's that T-SHIRT..the cotton top with the print of Prince's RAVE HEAD stretched across it.


That's the image that has stayed with me. When she comes on the screen, that's all I can stare at. I can't focus on anything else

I happen to Really Love those Moonwrap earrings. Instead of Piercing his ear 7x Prince has it on the Wrap and the Effect is DAZZLING. I think it Works WELL for Prince.Stop Hating on his STYLE!

Was this a home-made T-shirt? Like the girl with the airbrushed jeans? I am impressed with the quality of the artwork, BUT this is a really daggy (read UNCOOL) thing to do as an adult person! I cringe when I see them, but I admire the attitude though, so in their own way they are cool And those moon/stars ear things - also very daggy fannish things to wear. Cringeworthy.

Hate to agree with "Natasha" or whoever she is this week....but I kinda like the moonwraps...

Yeah,I think they look a little tacky.

I like them, they’re different.

It's not "earring bling"-- it's "ear-bling". And it's the bomb diggity, yo.

The earwrap is an often discussed, much hated accessory of our Princey

OK, I really don't like the ear-wrap, however I've noticed that Avon has something like it out as well as other stores.

So don't knock it. Maybe Prince is designing jewelry when he's not writing.

Anywho: While at the last celebration a young lady was in the NPG Store and asked if she could return the ear-wrap she had purchased. She said she just couldn't get it on her ear. And the cashierr said something like, tell me about it.


BTW: They did refund here $$$$$

When I first noticed him wearing the moonwraps in the late 90s, I also thought "vomitrocious".

But now I think its kind of a cool idea.

Sometimes when I see a picture from far away, my first mistakes the ear bling for some kind of ear monitor or hearing aid. Has anyone else mistaken the moonwraps for something more practical?

no no no..it still cant be worse then that darn gay black boy i saw wearing a painted over tide box with the "symbol" on it as a backpack during the Love41Another Charity Tour in San Jose...


tacky tacky tacky

a laundry soap box with a--oh dear.... at least it probably smelled nice, i guess.

They don't look so bad from far away, and that's a damn fine suit he's got on. Pic looks good to me.

i like the ear bling concept. i think it's potentially quite funky (in fact i'd like to see it developed further into face jewelry. like why stop with an earbling when you can have a metal eyebrowbling too, like seven in star trek?). anyway i think the more outrageous forms of attire look good on prince, since he has established for himself a tradition of dressing creatively.

anyone ever think how it must rock to be him? i wonder if he ever wakes up feeling frisky and decides to test his bodyguards/staff by wearing something totally strange to see who'll crack a smile or laugh first? problem is, don't try this at home. any of us were to go around sportin a mis-matched jacket like his on leno we'd be dodging curious glances all day maybe even outright rude comments from strangers, and all without the benefit of a bodyguard to tap those insults down

so, to sum up imo: earbling on prince = cool, earbling on joe public = difficult maneuver to pull off

mochalox said:

yeah, it's all muffy's fault!

Some time ago I read a post on Alt.Music.Prince by someone who had worked at Paisley Park who claimed that one day Prince showed up at Paisley obviously wearing a pair of Mayte's pink pumps (or at least they were clearly women's pumps) and that he was also wearing pink lipstick. I tried searching and was unable to now find that post but IIRC the poster claimed nobody said anything to Prince about it for awhile, but that he looked really bizzarre and then later finally someone made a crack or joke about what he was wearing nd Prince got upset and left and when he came back he wasn't wearing the shoes or lipstick anymore. Maybe someone who is more familiar with this anecdote, if it's even true, can expound on the story or correct me on anything I misremembered.

At any rate, regarding the earwraps: I think they're ugly and ridiculous looking. He looks way cooler wearing the big hoop earring!

PrimordialOoze said:

i mean, i'm not laughing at the fact you don't like earblings, lipblings or even noseblings. you're entitled to your opinion and i confess i like the hoop earring look too. i was giggling at your account of the pink-themed day. oh man... prince. gotta love him. it warms my heart to know he's out there living his life and being.. wild. if i were him, wearing pink pumps and they all laughed at me i would've gone home and emailed the staff a memo saying that they were all directed to change into their pink uniforms for the rest of the day. and then they'd all have to go to the special closets where the pink uniforms were hanging, awaiting just such an occasion, and put the uniforms on. little pink tuxes and puffy pink suits for the ladies with pink shoes for all. they'd think twice about laughing at my clothes if i were prince. yessirree bob

I really like em, i wanna sum, know where i could get em?

XxAxX said:

OMG that is CLASSIC!!

I love it.

i like the ear-bling. most major department stores are selling them now. i bought one a pair last year and get lots of copliments on them. come on fans stop being SQUARE.
