All hail the Prince.
No, seriously, if you want to get his attention you may have to actually bow, because Prince has made it very clear that he isn’t talking.
The 54-year-old is showing off his enviable skin on the cover of V Magazine, proving that when you live the life of The Artist, there are certain things you’re afforded. In the interview with the magazine, Prince, who is notorious for not allowing reporters to record his interviews with any devices, revealed a couple of things that we may find strange.
For starters, he doesn’t have a cell phone (and thinks yours is pretty stupid). Nobody talks directly to him and the man is pretty much unfuckwittable.
Check out the excerpts from the V Magazine interview below.
On if he has an iPhone:
“Are you serious? ‘Hell, no,’ he says, before mimicking a high-voiced woman. ‘Where is my phone? Can you call my phone? Oh, I can’t find it.”
On his communication with the outside world:
This organization is different than most, in the sense that we don’t take directions from the outside world. It’s like a galaxy. The sun is in the center giving off energy, and everything revolves around it … Nobody really talks to me. Nobody talks to me a lot. I talk to her. She talks to you. She talks to Richard. And so on and so forth. If I trust her, then you can trust her.
On his production of music:
“This organization is different than most, in the sense that we don’t take directions from the outside world,” he explains. “It’s like a galaxy. The sun is in the center giving off energy, and everything revolves around it…Nobody really talks to me. Nobody talks to me a lot.”
On lip synching:
“People come to see us fifty times. Well, that’s not just going to see a concert—that’s some other mess going on,’ he explains. This music changes you. These people are not being satisfied elsewhere by musicians, you feel what I’m saying? It’s no disrespect to anyone else, because we’re not checking for them. But we don’t lip synch. We ain’t got time for it. Ain’t no tape up there.”
Well they didn’t name the man Prince for nothing! He is a Diva if there was ever a definition for one.
Be sure to pick up the August issue of V Magazine for the full interview.
