Wow tonight was amazing, not only did we get to see everyone enter on the red carpet at the R&R HOF Induction, but we got to meet Prince himself. Stopped at a red light in his limo, his window was rolled down half way and we walked up and said hello, suprisingly he put his hand out and shook our hands, i had an 8x10 and asked if he could sign it, he said "I dont sign autographs" we told him congratulations on tonight and he thanked us, and then my friend told him he was sexy and he laughed, then we asked for a picture and he said "I'd rather not" we the watched as he went into his hotel, went to the Waldorf did a quick sound check, and went back to the hotel, he waited there until everyone had walked the red carpet and all the press was gone, and then he went back to the Waldorf for the show, we saw him leave, and even saw him again as he left for Club Black, he was used to us by then and we filmed him leaving his hotel. My friend tried to do a little Prince noise but it came out sounding more like MJ...Prince opened his eyes really big and then laughed and shook his head.

You met Prince, Did you see Mani? What was she doing? Did you really film them and can you post any pictures. Did they get pictures of Prince and Mani on the red carpet? Do you know if the red carpet will be televised? Do they show them together alot on the show. They barly showed them at the Oscars. Did you go to the after show? Can you elborate on the after show?

I'm sorry I just like all the details since I don't live there.

Sounds like fun Neverland. I'm happy for you and your friends.

People Without.....

"My friend tried to do a little Prince noise but it came out sounding more like MJ..." That must have been hilarious to see his reaction. Great story - thanks for sharing!

Could someone PLEASE answer this fool, the Org's very own Rainman. Please don't leave out ANYTHING Mani did either because they've already started a thread wanting to know everything Mani did last night.

Stalkerrific!

Seriously, cool story...though ya shoulda known better about the autograph thing.

Did you jump into his limo too?

lhmj....

Did you ask to sire his children?

Prince is such a great guy "I dont sign autographs".
"We asked for a picture and he said "I'd rather not". I just love him















U know... had E Bay never been invented you probably would have gotten all u asked for....

i doubt it. and know what?...i'm surprised that nobody's camera got snatched up in this whole episode!

You know, there was a time when fans would approach Prince for
an autograph or a picture, get denied, and hate on him for it.

Now, you still get denied, but instead of hating on him you
describe him as "amazing".

no shit

Oh My God! I couldn't have done it. Meeting Prince. I am so happy for you.
I probably would have fainted right there on the spot like a fool. Sorry you didn't get your autograph, but if you hadn't have asked, you never would have known that he didn't sign autographs.

Prince ain't got no kids. If he did, the way he is now that he's older, he would have shown his kids off with pride. I can see now that he is older and more settled down that he is into the family thing now and has put his playa days behind him. Now don't get me wrong, I don't mean he would have them all up in the press, but we would've heard something by now on Mani giving birth to their child if it wasn't nothing but a little paragraph and if I'm wrong please show me something. I have really tried to picture Prince as a father and really would like to see it.

OH MY GOD, that sounds so funny!!!!! LOL!!!!!

I met him at The Brit Awards in 1995 when he picked up Best International Male. I knew Chris Poole (one of Prince's old publicity agents) and Chris's wife MARIA from the NPG STORE in Camden Town, London before it closed down.

I went along to the awards and met them there and I met Prince alhtough he was extremely quiet that night!!!!! I remember there was a real tension on his table in the industry section because on the way to the awards he scrawled SLAVE across his face in the car and his 'team' were trying to convince him it was a bad idea but he wasn't listening. I remember a lot of black looks and frowning going on and Prince seemed REALLY stubborn!!!!

Then he went to colelct his award and he was really not sure about going up to collect it. It's like the tension caused him not to want to go up and get it. However he went up and got the award from Neneh Cherry and that's when it all kicked off!!!!! He noticed the award said PRINCE on it instead of and he was NOT PLEASED!!!!! Then he gave out that crazy Get Wild.....on stage FREE, on record SLAVE speech and everyone on his table had their heads in their hands with disbelief!!! No kidding!!!! It was realyl surreal!!!!!

When he came back to the table he was MIGHTY pissed off and u could have cut the atmosphere with a blunt knife!!!!! Everyone just sat quiet but a couple tried to congratulate him on his award only to be fended off by his security guards or a cold stare by Prince himself, even tho it was thru his sunglasses .....u cud still sense a cold stare!!!!!

Then he kind of left early cos he was so pissed off. In fact someone else had to take his award cos he just left it on the table!! He was sooo pissed it said PRINCE and not !!!!!

When he left I was a complete idiot and said "I think ur an absolute genius and u inspire me so much!!!" (I'm still embarrased I said it but it was an impulsive reaction) and then he just turned around, flipped down his sunglasses and winked at me!!!!!

I was assured that he 'likes compliments' and that he was pleased by my comments!!!!! Phew!!!!

Anyway, I met himagain at TOP OF THE POPS when he performed THE HOLY RIVER and this time I was given a gold credit card shaped card by one of his security guards/people. I didn't get to speak to him this time but stood right next to him!!!!!

Elle xxxxx :heart:

I met him at the last celebration twice.

The first time I ran into him in the lounge of Studio B, I kinda didn't know what to say...and so he just smiled and walked past me.

The second time was when he pulled me up on stage and let me sing Manic Monday with him and the band.

He was very nice.

Connie I was there and you were Great and I was just listening to that show yesterday...It was a Great time that week at the Celebration.

EverlastingNow said:

for REAL!!!

I would die if I ever shake his hands ...

I would be afraid that something bad would happen and then I would never play his records again. But when he is nice, you probably cherish that for life!
