So, MTV decided to do a tribute to Prince by playing music videos of Prince, including something by Fresh Prince (who is a different person). Oops!

One of the few who earned their huge ego.

I'll drink to that.

In all honesty I seriously doubt I could have stood being around the guy but that doesn't take anything away from him and it doesn't lessen any of the pain from his loss.

<i>Now look at them yo-yos...</i>

And there was much facepalming.

Pop culture. Wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle.

Apparently, Warner Bros. sent out floppy disks to the press with a font containing Prince's name (at the time it was that symbol).

Also, could somebody please explain why my post about Prince's gender identity (which is actually related to the "Love Symbol", which contains aspects of both ♂ and ♀, and is clearly relevant to Prince) is "low rated", while the posts that follow it are not?

Probably because, in a thread about a quite significant musician dying before his time, you once again come out sounding like a broken record.

I'm totally behind you for this cause dt, but they are right, you are overdoing it.

Not everything needs to be a soapbox.

Ah, damn! My diaphragm hurts now! :D

People will die the next one too ... :(

Overdose. Like Heath Ledger and Michael Jackson. Same type of pills, too (Perecocet)... RIP. But honestly, drug users or medicine abusers, rarely have a prolonged lifespan... His fortune is also most likely to be inherited by his sister, who is a drug addict (too) and has worked as a "prostitute", in the past. Or so the news i read mention all this interesting stuff.

I really wonder though and i mean i wonder hard, why or how, someone rich, or with fame, or with a glamorous and polyamorous lifestyle, with loads of fans and supporters, would ever consider doing drugs (or abuse medicine badly). The curse of the rich/celebrity/idol, perhaps?

Shit has been trying to kill me for forty years. I'm still here.

Of course this post is no doubt going to jinx me so I guess I should say goodbye to you all now. :D

Remember what James Bond taught us, "You only live twice." :)
