Well, well, well I guess those two don't want to be ridiculed in the public eye for making false claims.

Ya think??? Meanwhile, here's another possible claim to Prince's Estate by his (alleged) child:

A 39-year-old man currently imprisoned in Colorado for unlawfully transporting a gun claims he is Prince's son.

Carlin Q. Williams is seeking DNA testing to confirm whether he's the pop superstar's child...

Wow! Thanks for posting. I wonder if he spent much time there.

I've spent some time in Turks and Caicos. Provo has some of the most beautiful beaches on the planet. And it is very private. Yes there is some tourism and resorts there but it is very laid back. Very Prince like!

Sounds lovely. I'm sorry Prince is not able to enjoy it .... among so many other things, his piano, his music, his fans. [emoji26]

Is this the guy with the mother whose account almost replicates Darling Nikki - quite apart from the fact that she said she "didn't really like him but only went with him because he was Prince"? Bearing in mind he would have been only 17 or 18 at the time so nowhere near famous yet, her story sounds pretty dodgy.

Still I dare say getting a DNA test passes the time and is a bit of entertainment when you are stuck inside.

I found this article’s perspective to be realistic, centering, and kind. As musicians, friends, and fans come to acceptance there’s no doubt that they will all find a way to show their love for the man, and to honor Prince’s astonishing accomplishments. After all, there’s no lacking for opportunity with the myriad of award shows, world wide, and individual performances to come this year.

After watching the replay of the tribute this week, I think that Questlove, Madonna, and Stevie Wonder clearly all looked lost, and seemed and sounded shaky, holding back the tears. --So, I found myself moved by it just for the effort and for not being perfect. It’s just way too soon for anyone to pull off a full throttle tribute. -imo...

Madonna’s Purple Perfect Prince Tribute
“Madonna performed a love song for Prince, and it wasn’t about who’s the most talented performer on Earth, or who’s the best (there are no “bests” in subjective mediums), or who can prove they’re the right person to honor a dead man. No one wins that prize. The best we can do is appreciate the gifts Prince left us and allow people to show their love and share their memories and keep his spirit alive. That’s what Madonna did on the BBMA‘s, and she did it simply, elegantly, and pure of heart.”

Oh why isn't Chaka doing a tribute to Prince?

Maybe it hurts too much at the moment.

She did tweet quite early on but actually singing in a tribute is asking a lot. His fans are bereft - think how it must feel to someone who was a good friend and colleague: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/p...er-after-singer-s-body-is-found-a6995481.html

Yep that's her .... " I didn't really like him that much , but it was Prince , the singer "
Who at this time in his life was not that well known or instantly recognizable ..jmo

Yes so sad for both. Interesting how shy Prince is in interviews. It's quite charming though. And then when you least expect it, poof! he is so dog gone hilarious. Whadda guy!

I remember the first time I heard, "Darling Nikki." OMG! Keep in mind I was a sheltered 17 year old, I was shocked.

What a genius Prince was.
