It was bad enough when Prince became a Jehovah's Witness that he stopped performing all his sexy dirty songs, but now apparently he's all up in the gays' grills too.

According to the New Yorker, when the Purple Prince was asked about gay marriage and adoption the musician "tapped his Bible" and said "God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever and he just cleared it all out. He was like, 'Enough!'"

Meanwhile, this is coming from a man who sang "Am I black or white, am I straight or gay?", who wears midriffs and high heels and moves his hips like a stripper on ecstasy.

But his Holy Paisleyness now says he was misquoted and he simply implied that he follows the teachings of the Bible. Which is, apparently, wearing the gayest of gay ensembles and not singing about sexy times. Ruffled shirts accepted.

Since he won't play them anymore, here are some of Prince's dirtiest moments of clever:

Prince 'Erotic City':


Prince 'Gett Off':


Prince 'Sexy Motherfucker':


Prince 'Little Red Corvette':

Prince not performing his best songs is definitely not a change for the best.

speaking of god like figures. does anyone in Melbourne Town know what the go is with the giant gold Buddha-like statue on the banks of the Maribyrnong River. in between Footscray and South Kensington stations. Was just a heap of pillars sticking out of the ground for ages. not any more.

I pass that Buddha statue on the train every morning. Overheard a couple of guys talking about it earlier this week: "You'd get shot for putting that thing up anywhere else in the world." Though that was brilliant... As for Prince, I love his back catalogue, too bad he's become a bible bashing homophobic asshole. Oh, and Erotic City is particularly awesome.

So kat let me get this straight the beastie boys don't play girls anymore because it's sexist but prince not playing songs about all types of unchristian dirty orgies hes had with man/beast etc, now that he's changed his evil ways he's wrong?

Yes, that is why the Beastie Boys don't play 'Girls' anymore, but I never said that was a good or bad thing. The songs Prince doesn't play aren't particularly sexist, racist or homophobic; they're just about sex and it's lame that he doesn't play them because they're fucking fabulous Meanwhile, Mikolai, yes it is!

Since when do Christians hate sex? There'd be none of them left if it weren't for the holy act of copulation. It's a shame songs about sex aren't allowed alongside his religion, because Prince was amazing at making them.

Pashoncoop, I don't think it's an issue of good vs evil, I think it's an issue of awesome vs non-awesome. Prince used to be awesome when he was all sexy and now isn't, funk doesn't work nearly as well when it's not filthy-sexy. Plus 'Girls' is a terrible song anyway. The Beastie Boys don't play it cos they have better songs.

The road to redemption is long and confusing, rock starts should not over stress their drug and alcohol swiss cheese minds with such crazy talk. "Shhhhh Prince, shhhhhh, sleep now"

I think Jesus was probably fab-u-lous in the sack and Prince is an idiot for drawing a line through some of the best songs ever written. Hell any man who writes songs like "Purple Rain" and "Lets Go Crazy" CAN wear black lace body suits and hot pink leg warmers and prance around like a Kansas City Faggot while fucking Vanity 6 - and make you believe THAT is a religious experience! Leave the bible in the motel room!

Jesus didn't have sex while on earth.He didn't have time to get married instead he had a mission from god.

Dust your bibles off before ridiculing me.You give me the scripture where it states Jesus got married or had intercourse.

Dust off your history books and tell me where it says that dinosaurs didn't exist- the bible might not have all the answers. Anyway, this isn't about Jesus having sex or not, it's about Prince denying the world his talent.

If people can only listen to Prince if he sings about lewd sexual acts then there's something wrong with you people.

Word, Freeak. Besides, politics and religion are both interesting topics and shouldn't be avoided just because people are bound to disagree. Where's the fun in that?
