Reckon I'd be too excited about flying in first class, too busy reclining my seat all the way back, drinks...

Seriously? I'd probably leave him alone, unless he asked me what the time was or something.

I would do Nothing. I would go about my business and probably just close my eyes and Dream about him. What do ya think? I certainly would be a Civalized Human being. It is up to Prince to Talk . Prince is a Man. Prince should be the Agressor and not the Woman. He Knows how I feel so I would Never even Go there. Plus he doesn't Care . Sex is now something that Takes a Back Seat to his Religion. I Need a Man who Needs Sex and Needs it to be like the Priority. Like he has to Do It several times or he's gonna just Explode like. Lot's of Hot Passion.

I have not idea what I would say, I think I proabbly speak to fast, say or ask to many things, he proabbly think that I was just released from the nut house. Of cousre I would try to act cool, but my Prince fan DNA would take over.

I wouldn't try to make small talk with someone who has on headphones and clearly doesn't want to be bothered. It is really annoying to be on in an airport waiting area waiting for a flight or on a plane and you're trying to read a book or magazine and the person next to you wants to talk.

Id probably say hello and say im a member.


id ask him if he came to the org..

then offer him a mint

then just start staring at him.. crazy like..

then one eye starts to blink rapidly..

just kiddin

I'd probably ask him if he'd be interested in a conversation, or respectively ask if he'd like to keep to himself . . . then I'd see what he said . . . either way, I'd get out an "I really appreciate your work" and see where that went . . .

He'd either say "Cool" and then stay quiet the whole time . . .

OR, he'd "test" me, wondering what I know of his catalog. Then I'd say what I know (which is a lot) and discuss . . .

One thing I'm sure of: I would NOT make the talk-show-host mistake of mentioning the name change, unless he mentioned it first. I'd concentrate on the music, and maybe even delve into the album cover art (as I am a a graphic designer).

A funny scenario would be this: I'm playing my iPod, and he looks over and notices it . . . he asks "what'chu playin'?" and I would answer "your stuff" . . .

I would probably just look at him and smile and say Hello is all. Then go back to sleep.

I agree witcha on dat. If he took da headphones off I probably would say sumthin'. Like "Hey" or whateva & see where it goes from there...

Hopefully I'd be classy like the other passenger mentioned in the article: wait until Prince is about to leave, then quietly and politely acknowledge him and wish him well. If I'm to believe the article, that's what happened and Prince obviously appreciated it.

I'd asked him where he get his shoes from.....and the ask him to be quiet cuz i wanna take a nap.

I'd leave him alone. I might give him the "head nod", but other than that, I'd probably be too nervous to talk to him. I'd be like Chris Farley when he met Paul McCartney...

Me: Remember when you made Purple Rain?
Him: Uh, yeah
Me: Awesome!!!

First, there is no chance i'd ever be seated next to prince, unless he downgraded to the dirty, squashed seats near the toilet, where i always end up.

If he did though, sure i'd talk to the guy. I'd talk until he got nervous and called the in-flight attendant. And i'd steal his peanuts.

I'd wake him up, put on his first album, and freakdance with him. F*ck the money, I want his clothes!

it would be tough not to say anything, but I would try to keep my mouth shut. I would probably wait until the very end of the flight and quickly tell him that I love his work. Or maybe I'd write him a little note and give it to him near the end of the flight. Of course, this would make me seem like a nutty fan, but I'd probably be too nervous and flustered to say anything reasonable coherent.

Or maybe if I had my Walkman with me with Prince music in it (which is pretty likely), I would crank it up and hope he heard it...that would probably be the nicest thing to "say". Of course planes are pretty noisy, so he might not be able to hear the music from the headphones.

It would be freaky though and I don't think I could sit there and relax during the flight...it would be totally "Twilight Zone".

Good fan fic story,Paris9748430 we need more like these. They always putta smile on my face.
Mines...
Afda he takes his headphones off.
Me: Hey,wussup?
Prince: Hey
Me: Whatcha listenin' 2?
Prince: The new Usher & Janet CD
Me: 4real? Whatcha think of Lil Jon screamin' "YEAH" & "OKAY"?(I'm sure he knows who Lil Jon is)

Prince: It's hilarious,do u like'im?
Me: Not exactly...
Prince: Every generation of each type of music needs their crazy people,Lil Jon would serve as that.
I Nods
Me: Betcha can't say it like Lil Jon(I'd be curious 2 hear how he sound)
Prince: Oh really? okay..*clears throat* "YEEEEEAAAH!" "OKAAAAAY!"
I claps
Me: That wuz koo,I couldn't do it...it'd make me hoarse. Speakin' of that it's koo how u can scream inna high voice & still sing thru-out a whole song,how ya do it?
He shrugs
Prince:*while smiling* It's justa gift. Why doncha try..
Me: Uh-uh..
Gives a type persuasive look
Me: Aight aight I'll do it...
Screams a lyric then switch my voice back
Stuardist comes ova
Stuardist: Please keep quiet other passengers are tryna sleep,thank you.
We both nod & she leaves we start laughin' quietly & just start talkin' thru-out the whole flight. Then afda when he gotta go we give dap & say 'Peace'.

That's justa fan fic IMO I'd like 4 things 2 go like that if I eva got 2 sit near Prince onna plane. I know it ayn that good but oh well it's IMO.

I'd do what would make him like me the most, which is leave him alone and let him enjoy his flight in peace.

If he talked to me first, cool. And I'd of course be polite and say "excuse me" or whatever if I needed to get up or get by him, but otherwise I'd just let him be. The guy gets bothered enough.

Id just consider myself lucky to have wound up sitting next to him in the first place and be happy with that.

I just would have to beg for an Aisle seat though cause honestly, I would be Running to the Bathroom cause I just can't Control it. It would be Embarassing to make Prince move for my Constant Bathroom trips. I'm so bad that way... I actually knew a person once who wore Depends.

Zelaira said:

In all seriousness, I know what you're saying. I'd probably do the same thing and say it would be better if I had the aisle seat. I run to the bathroom a lot too especially when I'm nervous on a flight.

Prince would get pretty sick of having to move to let me by!

I'd be happy period cause I'd have enough money to afford to fly business class. I wouldn't give a fuck who I'm sitting next to!

I'd ask:

Can I take a picture? Can I? Uh? Can I?
Can I?Can I?
Can I?Can I?

I'd force him to listen to me preach for twenty minutes about MY religion!
Then I'd say: "I know a great story. Wanna hear it? Oh sorry it's deleted. No wait, you can order it from my website. Oh sorry it's delayed. I've got a vault at home with a thousand great stories. But I'm never gonna tell them to anyone."

Just kidding, I'd probably beg him for a guitar lesson.

First of all if I was lucky enough to sit in first class, I'd be taking advantage of it. I would ask Prince of he needed some hot towels or an ice cream sundae. Since I think the new Janet album is tha bomb, I'd ask if he likes it, but 4 real though, I think I'd only talk to him if he spoke to me.

NPGDiva said:

That's a great idea. Sit tight and say nothing until he says something. Then sing, "He spoke to me! I can't believe it but he spoke to me!". Or wait until he's fast asleep at 2AM and then lean over and sing very loudly, "It's 2 o clock, in the morning, and i just can't sleep..." i don't know why, but i always think of ways to annoy prince if i ever met him.

No kidding! I'd be having a good snooze in a comfortable seat, for once. Stretching out my legs, mmmm

I'd love to have him for a seatmate, because you know he'd be nice & quiet, not getting drunk or trying to chat you up.

I'd tell him I was scared shitless of flying and ask if he hold my hand....

roodboi said:

Now that's me. I'll fly to a concert, but DAMN!!! I hate to fly.

Once on my way to PR, I asked a perfect stranger if I could hold his hand during take off. He was nice, but wanted to sue cause I squeezed the shit outta his hand.


Nah. I'd leave him alone. He'd probably talk to me, because I'd have one of his CDs on Max and he's ask, "Whatcha listening too"?

I'd close my eyes and say, "some guy named Prince. Ever heard of him"?

oh my gosh prince sitting next to me.....

first of all i know my heart would be beating triple time and probably so loud that he'd probably ask, "r u ok?"

and then i wouldn't even front i think i would be trying to look into his eyes 2 c if they are really that greenish hazelish color, but by then he'd probably be buzzing the flight attendant to get this crazy girl out of his face.

or

i'd keep to myself and blast 17 days in the head phones and pretend I am getting something out of my bag and put the head phones down so that he could hear what I was listening too.

or realistically,

i'd ask for his autograph and ask him would he like to be left alone, then i wouldn't bother him.

that's cute and probably more like

how most of us would react

i'd add a quickie and tell prince

that his music has been a great

inspiration in my life
