You know you've hit icon status when you can run around and make hotels redecorate and add your symbol to their walls. Who does that? Prince does that! Prince recently played a series of concerts at L.A.'s famous Roosevelt Hotel and made them redecorate the penthouse. Can I make my landlord paint a big "J" on the wall of my incredibly small bathroom with the broken shower door? I'm delusional.
"He made the hotel recarpet the penthouse suite in white shag carpeting and place a huge purple 'Prince' logo on one of the walls," our insider says.
Prince is bound for Europe after he finishes up his US shows. White shag? That's some Rick James shit! Hopefully there were jheri-curled hookers in really big platforms languishing on that white shag. Thoughts of pretty u and me, erotic city come alive!
Ruby Jackson says:
C'mon, he was RAKING the money in for that hotel- I'm sure their cut equalled a LOT of money-- enough to carpet and paint that room a thousand times. This does not seem like a big deal.

Oh, J. Harvey "if we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time" because your posts just kill me! Seriously, our iPods should do lunch.
I have zero problem with The Purple One's demands. He's one of the rare few who can justify them with talent.
Azraelle says:
Prince doesn't do that anymore, he's accepted Jesus as his personal savior.
Seattle Prince Fan says:
OMG! White Shag? I love it - that is my Prince!!
