Visiting Prince’s house is like visiting Kanye’s future: “In the living room, he’d installed purple thrones on either side of a fireplace, and, nearby, along a hallway, he had hung photographs of himself, in a Moroccan villa, in various states of undress.” Asked about the (at the time) upcoming election, Prince preached a pox-on-both-your-houses neutrality: “‘you’ve got the Republicans, and basically they want to live according to this.’ He pointed to a Bible. ‘But there’s the problem of interpretation, and you’ve got some churches, some people, basically doing things and saying it comes from here, but it doesn’t. And then on the opposite end of the spectrum you’ve got blue, you’ve got the Democrats, and they’re, like, ‘You can do whatever you want.’ Gay marriage, whatever. But neither of them is right.’” Prince’s view? “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out.” Oh, Prince. Even when he’s talking about religion, he’s talking about sex. Now that he lives in California, though, let’s hope he doesn’t vote. [The New Yorker]

i was at a pizza place awhile back and the guy there started bumping the Gold Experience and dancing with his cute little squirt of a kid, it made me happy.
as for prince, i liked him better when he was celebrating the sticking of whatever with wherever. him telling me i can’t stick my whatever with whatever, as pertaining to some misguided spiritual delusions, ahem…not so much.
yeah i mean he can stick his whatever in any girls wherever whenever he wants, because he’s prince. its unfair of him to judge that a guy cant stick his whatever in another guys wherever if said guy wants to and other said guy consents. not cool prince!
This from a guy who wrote the lyric, “23 positions in a one-night stand.”
This from the guy who wrote “Sister”!
I get the feeling that these days Kanye would rather be Marvin Gaye or pre-Crazy Michael Jackson than Prince (minus the whole “get shot by your father” thing).
@sparkletone: Addendum: I think Timberlake is the better MJ successor. But if Kanye flips out and becomes Jebus-ified, I think he’d be more Marvin Gaye than Prince.
Common’s already got the trademark on Marvin Gayeing out, though.
He’s Jehova’s Witness, so no… he doesn’t vote.
Prince is supposedly saying he was misquoted

Please tell me Prince is neighbors with Michael Jackson in outer Solvang!
Perez says the alleged misquote happened because the reporter “didn’t even use a tape recorder,” but it’s my understanding that Prince usually doesn’t allow recording during interviews. So whose fault is it really?
