Prince, Music, Religion  | | Does ANYONE.. anyone at all.. ANYONE ON EARTH.. know if he's still one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Now there's no need to jump on and start a JW bash-fest. I could care less about your opinions on the religion. I just can't seem to get a straight answer at all. I've asked around; I've searched the internet. Ok I saw that he and his wife divorced. So that makes me think maybe he's not..but doesn't necessarily prove it.. maybe SHE'S not a JW anymore..*shrug*. I haven't heard any of his newer music.. has it returned to raunchy, disgusting stuff like he use to do? That may answer my question if I knew that. I saw the superbowl '07 half time just now.. didn't look bad at all so I don't know.

I might go and have a look and see what I can find, I dont think he played up, I know he was building a stage show to put out/on. But all's quiet there also.
Who's got the Beret, oooooooooooooo

| | 2. drknlvly6781 (3163) | 2 years ago | I didn't even know that Prince was a Jehovah's witness. I knew that Michael Jackson was at one time. I think when people like this go into stardom, they renounce their witness status. Jehovah's Witnesses are against calling attention to themselves, and stardom, so both Michael and Prince's moves were a no-no to them.
Actually, Prince has retired. He had knee surgery a year or two ago, those heels did a number on them. He did one more album, and it wasn't as raunchy as the album "Little Red Corvette" was on. He also did a number for "Happy Feet" and that one was cute. After this however, he retired from the stage. He's just producing now.

drknlvly6781 (3163) | 2 years ago | The half time show he did for the SuperBowl was funny to me. He first came out in a scarf, because it was sprinkling and he didn't want to get his hair wet. It started sprinkling harder, and by the end of the show, he ripped the scarf off like "F*ck it. Hair's already wet anyway. Hairdresser gon be mad at me, but she's just gonna have to do it over for the after party!" lmao.

primalmom (505) | 2 years ago | Well Michael's mother was a JW. All the kids went down totally different paths. Prince was actually Seventh Day Adventist until he converted to JW in 2001.

primalmom (505) | 2 years ago | OH and there are those who are famous and still have managed to balance out and adhere to their dedication. Larry Graham is one.

| | 3. TheMadMonkey (70)  | 2 years ago | People...if you don't know what you're talking about, please keep your thoughts to yourselves. Why come to a discussion about Prince when you obviously know nothing about him?
He did convert to JW after his divorce from Mayte Garcia and the loss of his newborn son...a dubious conversion at best...thank you, Larry...jerk. He married a "fam" named Manuela Testolini and they got divorced a couple years later. Shortly thereafter, it's said (again, no substantial proof) that he had renounced JW. Where his belief structure stands, if this is true, is uncertain at this time. That's about the only answer you're going to get, unless he goes back onto Larry King Live and touts his latest religious fascination again.
Now...onto the people who think they have something to say about someone they know nothing about... There is no conclusive evidence that he has had any hip surgery done. It's just as much a rumor as his supposed baldness. He is still performing and is still making albums. The only thing he keeps threatening to retire are his hits...and he never does that. It's what made him a star in the first place and the drek that he's been releasing as of late just doesn't make the cut. So, in the future, please do some simple research before you open your cyber-yap...okay?
That last comment was not directed at you, primalmom. You have the sincere common sense to ask and find out before saying anything.

primalmom (505) | 2 years ago | Thanks MadMonkey. I'm sorry that you're bothered by the others' attempts at helping; however it does sound like you do keep up with the Purple One.:0) I don't know whether I agree that his conversion was dubious. Considering the hostility and opposition that comes with being associated with JW's as well as the lengthy time of studying and the entire process to even get to the point of baptism into that name, it's hardly something that can be done "off the cuff" or "overnight" as it were.
I do appreciate the input. I still have no answer as you made clear unless he himself says something. I thought perhaps I'd missed something as there is much speculation but no real answers. I did a lot of research but have found nothing that confirms one way or the other.
Happy posting!

primalmom (505) | 1 year ago | Jehovah's Witnesses have no dictates as to what one eats. Some are vegan or vegetarian and others are not. It's not a part of the religion itself. As I understand, Prince was raised Seventh Day Adventist.. they are vegetarians.

shooie (3548) | 1 year ago | Yep I read he was at one time Seventh day as well and thanks for the clear up on the vegan thingy

| | 5. alharra (326) | 11 months ago | The answer to your question is yes Prince is still a JW. The divorce was from his first wife after the birth and death of a child from some sort of genetic defect. Prince has opened a club in Vegas, 3121, and is doing shows there. From what I have read he is plannikng on releasing three albums this year. And I wouldn't necessarily call his most recent stuff raunchy.
