All the scandals of the Prince!
The legendary Prince will always be remembered for his music, but he left behind a series of scandals.
He made history with his music, and the death of the legendary Prince left an indelible mark on the music world. Just a week before his death, he held a concert that drove the audience crazy. His lifeless body was found in an elevator in his studio on April 21, 2016, and it wasn’t until two years later that the cause was found to be a lethal dose of Ventolin, a painkiller.
The singer had addiction problems before. In his biography, they recalled when he became addicted to drugs. On the tour for the album ‘Purple Rain’ Prince planned to sing the legendary song in a bathtub hung at a height of three meters. While rehearsing the choreography in the tub, it burst and the singer fell and injured his back.
‘ After that, his back ached day by day. He later slipped and injured his knee in Los Angeles. He received some medication to complete the tour, but I don't think his hip and leg ever recovered, 'said his then-manager Alan Leeds in his biography. These two injuries, Prince's friends say, were the beginning of a drug and drug addiction that led to his death.
Although we will always remember him for his hits, Prince left behind a series of scandals that are hard to forget.
One of the surprising facts about the musician is that he has been one of Jehovah's Witnesses since 2001. Once was written about a shocking couple from Minneapolis who opened the door when someone knocked and on their porch was no less than Prince with a copy of a religious pamphlet. It was also written that Prince was infected with AIDS, but because he was one of Jehovah's Witnesses, he never wanted treatment. These allegations have never been confirmed.
The famous musician had a son in 1996, who died a few weeks later due to a rare hereditary disease. It was Pfeiffer's syndrome - a disease that affects the growth and shape of bones. The boy's name was Amiir and they fed him through pipes every day.
The singer of the hit 'Purple rain' was at the center of the scandal when he released a recording from 1989 in which actress Kim Basinger is allegedly heard sighing. He incorporated the recording into his song ‘The Scandalous Sex Suite’. It is rumored that the recording was made while Prince and Basinger were in a relationship, and the actress has never denied that she is the one on the recording. But Prince shocked not only by his moves but also by his statements. One of the more shocking is the one about Islam.
‘It’s fun to be in Islamic countries, to know that there is only one religion. There is some order. Wear burqas and have no choice. People are happy with that,' he said. Mariam Sobh, the then editor of the Hijabtrendz.com portal, reacted sharply to his statement, calling his opinion medieval.
' He's really out of touch with reality. Maybe he doesn't know what a burqa is? I'm shocked that instead of sympathizing with women who are forced to wear it, he did this 'she said. Prince has also faced numerous lawsuits during his life, one of which was filed against him in 2010 by former lawyer Ed McPherson. He sued him for claiming the musician owed him $ 50,000. In the same year, they settled and the singer settled his debts.
Ghosts after Prince’s death were stirred by one sentence by singer Boy George when he said in October last year that he ‘slept with Prince’.
