Prince joined his fellow musical idols in 1983, with his longtime bodyguard Big Chick carrying him to the stage. Unfortunately, the appearance didn’t go that well, as Prince’s former manager Alan Leeds explained:



Prince went to a James Brown gig with Bobby Z, his drummer at the time, Big Chick, who was his security guard, and I think Jill Jones, who was one of his protégés. By now, everybody knows what happened at that gig. I don’t think Prince realized that Michael was going to be there. James looked a little puzzled in that video when Michael whispered in his ear, “Hey, bring Prince up.” And of course Prince didn’t really know what to do either. He went to the guitar first but he fumbles with that because it was left-handed. He played a few licks, did some dancing and knocked over a prop by accident. Now I always wondered if Michael intentionally brought Prince up to put him in that position just to say, “Hey, you think you’re on my ass? Well follow this, motherfucker [laughs].” Bobby Z called me and said, “Oh boy…he made an ass of himself tonight.” He said Prince didn’t say a word the whole way to the hotel.

watched the video and it was not a left handed guitar unless he was talking about another time..

also i doubt there was anything but respect between MJ and Prince. Game recognize game and genius does too.

But did you check that lil cat out... fuck a crowd carry me to the stage :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

Prince never wanted to get old.
Neither did M.J. and they didn't... I guess in the big scheme of the universe perhaps certain people are better off not getting old (Elvis, Lennon, M.J., Monroe, 2-Pac, Hendricks, Bob Marley, Winehouse, Whitney, Aaliyah and now Prince)...
I just couldn't now would I want to see him all old fucked up cant walk talking about the good old days... At least he went out looking like a boss, looking and acting like the legend he was..

This has me scratching my head, because if he had a drug overdose (assuming it was prescriptions) why would he go to the hospital, then be released play at a gig, be shown outside looking good, then go home take those same pills and die...
Something is not right with that picture..
That story does seem a bit too out there. This is a guy who kept himself on a strict vegetarian diet. He doesn't seem the type to partake in the opiates. He seemed to have strict discipline. He wouldn't even play his "dirty" songs anymore.

They interviewed some chick on HLN who was supposedly close to him. She said he was actually very close to MJ and went into deep depression when he died.

I got the feeling that there is a small piece of the story that is being left out, and if we were to get it we would be like, 'yeah now that makes sense, now'....

wow, so you really believe just cuz Prince was vegan he wouldn't take pain killers if he was in pain?Singing dirty songs and being in pain are completely different

Mayband die...

Maybe when a 57 yr old man ODs he NEEDS to go to a hospital. Then when he's out of the woods but still in pain, thinks he NEEDS to take em again to get through the show, because he's addicted, plus he's gotten through it many times before, just not this time.

This is quite possible, but the likelyhood of it is not that great especially when you take into consideration that Prince once gave M.J. advice to slow down and scale down his shows if he was feeling ache and pain... And has stated several times that he doesn't like any types of medication..
Mentioning that he is a vegan, only points out that he is highly disciplined not some guy who gives into his urges with out thinking about the consequences...
