I agree Robin. Prince does not care a fig about his fans. If he did, he'd behave a lot differently towards us. I know a lot of people say it is crazy to expect anything from him, that he owes us nothing> Maybe I'm too simple because I don't think that is true. He does owe us respect. We've given it to him, right? Not to mention all kinds of money and benefit of the doubt.
And BTW my feelings about that pic aren't because he is getting old. He is still a pretty, pretty man. He just makes some, um, interesting choices about his attire etc. these days. And that choice was just odd and, in my opinion, gruesome. It isn't about age. I mean, someone like David Bowie, who is older than Prince I think, still looks amazing. ******************************************************** You're so vain; I bet you think this all is about you.... ________________________________ From: Robin Turner <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 13, 2009 7:21:20 AM Subject: Re: NPNY: Two New Pics on LotusFlower site Belinda I understand what you're saying and I partially agree with Derek also. It seems as though "WE" (the fans) put out the biggest amount of money, time and effort - while the celebs get all the freebies. No they don't care what his last album (CD) was and won't buy it, heck they're getting it free of charge. Quite a few of us paid for the O2 book, and you don't think he's been giving that one way since before it was published...He needs recognition from his peers. It's just that his PEERS aren't gonna pay the money to see him. I doubt when he was at the RIO any of the celebs paid $1,000 for the table. No, they got in free because it was a win/win situation for both. While the fans stood for hours on end. As Derek said, if he really knew how to run a business this wouldn't be a problem. However, I do have a problem spending my money so he can give FREE shows to people who can definitely afford to pay. Except if they had to - they wouldn't be there. Since Cali is at least a 5 hour trip, and he announces most of his shows last minute, East Coast would be hard pressed to get to Cali, get settled and attend an event. (CAN ANYONE SAY SAN JOSE - MUSICOLOGY TOUR) Yeah this is long, but I've sat and watched and am a little disappointed. At this age, I expect a little more respect, especially if it's on MY DIME.

I hear about these other shows that occur at his house and I didn't get an invite. At least invite me and let me decide if I can afford to go. Invite the people who are actually going to buy the product. Most of these celebs could care less about his next album unless they're getting in free, getting a free copy, can use the event for their own personal screen time or they think it will up their popularity or exposure. I thought everyone paid at a charity event. What kinda hypocrite goes to a charity event and doesn't contribute to the cause? I know Sam Talbot paid for him and his girlfriend. But he's not big time known. Those people had to pay or Prince would lose money paying for the venue. Plus I saw people paying at the table in the back and they weren't fans. Too many pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes stumbling on those horrible cobblestones through our little crowd to the door. I don't care how many celeb events he hosts, I just want us to get invites to at least some. Even if I can't afford to go.
