    Little known fact about Prince. Prince was actually his real name.

    Several years ago (maybe 15 years now) I was in Vegas watching a show with my girl and another couple in the balcony. Who sneaks in behind us... Prince. My friends wife turns around and nearly goes ballistic when she saw him behind her. Prince just smiled and nodded as she was hyperventilating. My buddy says out loud... "Damn woman, you don't even get excited like this when I come home". All of us including Prince started laughing. He sat there with us watching the show and when he left he reached over us to shake our hands and say bye. Real cool cat. Very sad day.

    I was shocked when Vanity (who I had a mad crush on) died a couple of months ago. Who knew they would both die in the same year???

    Yeah, I did a search and Prince stopped the streaming of his music on Youtube in 2015.

    Yeah Vanity was hot..



    She smoked crack her entire life, kidney failure.. She went sober, turned evangelist and died....

    http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...ry-dies-865763


    People that smoke crack most of their life usually die quickly when going sober.. Not the first time I heard that happening... I'm pretty sure Prince was on the crack pipe too... (he was always paranoid and that's a tell tail sign) Just saying..
