The Prince Basketball Story is True

I had no idea!

After all these years I thought the legendary Chappelle Show skit was made up. Prince really could ball and beat Charlie Murphy in a spontaneous game at his house one night in 1985.

So Prince was the top?

I always imagined him as a bottom.

Prince was only 5 ft 2… that’s some confidence!

I've never wanted a man as much as I wanted Prince.

I’m with you, R3. I had a deep sexual attraction to him in my teens and twenties. I’ve written here before that he’s the only black man to whom I’ve ever been attracted.

I loved him. The final years were sad.

I hear this all the time, and I've never understood it.

I have never been sexually attracted to Prince.

By chance R3 and R4, are you both tops?

I am, R6, though I’m not a fan of anal.

by Anonymousreply 7September 7, 2025 3:35 AM

Now they're both dead.

I always found him creepy and not at all attractive, sorry. Weird sleazy vibe.

by Anonymousreply 9September 7, 2025 3:37 AM

R6, I'm R3. Yes, I'm a top. My partner is a black man with a gorgeous ass. I've compared him to Todrick Hall. Anyway, I first fell in love with him when his first album was released.

All of Charlie Murphy's stories were true, that's why they were called "Charlie Murphy’s True Hollywood Stories." Rick James even confirmed the stories about him were true.

Of course it’s true. Prince was hilarious. And awesome, hot, talented, smart. I really wish he’d gotten real help for the pain instead of tainted rx drugs.

“Of course it’s true.”

Who on earth would think Prince of all people was a basketball player?

Prince was very short, but honestly some short guys can be really talented at basketball. You just don’t ever see short guys in the NBA. I think there was a guy who was 5’8” at one point and people acted like he was a midget.

I'm from the DC area and grew up watching 5'3" Mugsy Bogues playing for the Bullets.

So was it really the Shirts vs. Blouses?

Game ... blouses.

It’s not just the fact that he was short which makes it surprising, it’s the fact that he’s PRINCE for goodness sake. Who would think Prince of all people excelled at any sports, let alone something as gritty and physical as basketball? That’s what made the Chappelle Show skit so funny.

Thank you R24. If R17 knew anything about Prince or had read any of his biographies he or she would know this.

by Anonymousreply 25September 7, 2025 11:34 PM

He was closeted @R23

by Anonymousreply 26September 7, 2025 11:52 PM

Based on what, R26?

by Anonymousreply 27September 8, 2025 2:42 AM

He outplayed all those other guitar players at the Concert For George too. Why he hiding some of his lights under a bushel?
