Does/Can Prince still do the splits? I have noticed for a while now, he hasn't done them recently. I sorta remember maybe hearing something to the fact that because of his spirituality he doesn't dance anymore. Then on Jay Leno, he cut the rug a little bit and I suddenly forgot whether I actually had heard that or not. Does anyone know what the situation is with Prince and dancing? Is it age, religion, or something else as to why I haven't seen it much recently.

he still dances but he a little older i dont think he can do splits as much maybe he should add cornbread to his diet

Yeah, I was wondering if he could still do splits, too.

th' hell? what does one's spirituality gotta do with not dancin anymore?

I think prince can still do a split. The question is if he can get his old butt back up afterwards.

He did the splits when I saw him in Seattle for the One Night Alone tour -

For H&R Tour, he was wearing loafer type shoes, I think he has some problems knee problems

Ya i'm thinking his knees are probably bothering him.
Knees is a problem for a lot of middle aged people who have been active, and the knees are very sensitive.

I thought i heard he fell, him and chakha at one point a few years back. The that kevin smith guy said that prince mentioned his knees were bothering him, it all adds up. Maybe he will try everyonce in a while.

on the contrary, kujo, cornbread would add pounds to ol' boy thus making it more difficult to do 'the splits'. all that extra butter, cream and carbs...uh uh, not good for 'the splits'.

all that, and he'd be on the potty half the time...

cornbread is the secret 2 life and prince can do anything he wants so split that and call it bubblegum

kujo said:

I'm guess after doing the splits all those years, his knees are giving him some trouble. But I remember James doing his splits around the time "Living In America" was released and he was about 100 then?

I actually thought he may have done it on the Grammys when the camera was off him at the end of "Baby, I'm A Star." The crowd was wowing like he did something spectacular.

I hope he does at least one in each city for this tour. I'd love to see him do it again.

He's moving more now than i've seen him in quite a few years. I think the splits are out for good though now.

I know that his supposed chosen religion is strict( lack of better word). I have personal knowledge of some other folks who practice the same religion still GET DOWN when they feel like it!
