Prince - New Hip Act

Devastating news that one of the swingiest hips in the bizz-ness, the one to the left of Prince's much-wiggled groin is worn out and needs replacing.

As a Jehova's Witness, he probably won't go ahead with the operation, which places concerns on his future career as an onstage jiggy little perve-pot.

This is hard for me to take, especially on the heels of news of AHW's illness.

Prince's hips have been through a lot though. Suppose the same might be true of Wilson's kidneys.

I'm going to start making my heroes out of plastic - real people are far too volatile.

(Although Anna Nicole Smith does fuck that argument up somewhat...)

And I was quietly hoping he may, just may, play Glasto this year. Ah well, have to make do with the Pensioners, sorry the Who.

Prince has been a Glasto rumour since he was eight.

I wish I'd been to see the Parade or Lovesexy tours. Surely at his peak then.

Yeah but 3/12 is still an album way ahead of its time in my little opinion.Still pushing them boundaries

Was wanting to go and see Prince in Dublin in 2002 but was away on holidays at the time of show. Brilliant show according to a mate who was there. Don't think he's toured in Europe since 2002.

Seen him 4 times: 1993, 1997, 2001 and 2004

Ah well, if he refuses the op he'll have trouble walking and then he'll be a Hip Hop act.

Prince became a Jehovah's Witness several years ago. They do not believe in any kind of operation involving blood transfusions. A Hip replacement is out of the question in that case.

Might as well shoot now him then. Looks like the cuban heels came home to roost.
