Prince on Oprah?

I would think that to kickstart the second wave of "Musicology" promotions he'd have to consider a re-visit to Oprah. It would certainly get new "old" fans and guarantee sales. I'm sure he's got the second wave of promotion already planned out and this would seem like a logical stop -- even though I'm strictly speculating.

It'd be horrible. Something like THIS...



Oprah: So ... Prince? I can call you that again, now, right? Or should I stick with "friend?" I've always felt that putting a name to various phases in our lives helps prepare us for the next phase. I've always thought that.

Prince: (Sidelong, doe-eyed glance and a smile)

Oprah: OK, so I'll call you Prince -- even though we ARE friends. I consider us friends for life. We should fly with my friends John Travolta and Kelly Preston on his plane this weekend! Wouldn't that be fabulous? I've always felt flying and music are connected some way. I've always thought that.

Prince: (Sidelong, doe-eyed glance) Yeah, um, they're Scientologists and, um...

Oprah: (Cutting in, to audience) And each one of you, under your seats, has a bag of fresh-roasted peanuts from John Travolta's plane! For the occasion, we've dyed them purple! (To Prince) That's still your favorite color, right? *Purple Rain begins to play* I just love that song!!! It's my favorite.

Prince: (cringes, puts face in hand)

Oprah: (to audience) Under your seats, next to the peanuts is the Purple Rain DVD, which is being re-released this year for the 20th anniversary of the mo-vaaaaay!!!

Prince: (Silent but smirking as the crowd erupts into applause)

Oprah: Well, let's talk romance. When you were here before, you were with Mayte, whom you called your soul mate. Now, you're married to Manuela Testollini. Is she your soulmate, too? Do you get more than one? I've always thought that we get choices among soulmates. That's something I've always thought. Especially when things don't work out with the first ones.

Prince: (facing Oprah finally, and looking a little miffed) When are you and Steadman going to embrace the theocratic order, and stop living in sin? Then he can "Call Your Name" in the legal sense.

Oprah: "Call My Name" is a single on your new album, Musicology. I just love the video. That little boy dancing in it is so cute. That floppy curly hair of his. He even did a split! He's fabulous. (to audience) Under the Purple Rain DVD and next to the purple peanuts, each of you will find a copy of the new album, Musiciology and a lock of that little boy's haaaaair.

Prince: That's it! I'm outta here. You people are freaks... (gets up and storms off)

Oprah: (to audience) We're going to take a break. But, when we come back, we're going to show exclusive, never-seen-before footage of Prince leaving our studios. And, under your seats, you'll find ...
