I Have A New Best Friend. He Just Doesn't Know It Yet.

Have you ever seen or heard someone and had an instant connection to them? You just knew that you'd be friends? Deep in your heart, you know that if you were to meet this person you would be besties for life.

I feel that way about exactly two people: Prince and Paula Deen. I want to elaborate on Prince today because I think you all are smart enough to figure out that my relationship with Paula Deen would exist solely on a mutual love of butter. And I adore her impossibly blue eyes and her sweet Southern accent, but I digress.

Pretty much since 1999 (the album, not the year), I've been a Prince fan. He speaks to me. Sure, Prince is quiet and that comes across as kinda creepy, but he's arty and funky. I like arty and funky in a person.

Simply put, I just love that man's brain. Can't you just picture the two of us chilling on a purple velvet couch somewhere discussing our mutual love of all things paisley? I can so see that happening.

And let's be honest, Prince and I are so similar it's ridiculous.

Want proof? The man stands around 5'2" (without his kicky high heeled boots). Guess how tall I am? That's right. I'm 5'2".

Prince wrote his first song at age seven. I was seven when he had his first Billboard hit.

We could be twins.

In the early 80s, Prince opened for the Rolling Stones. Pretty sure that sometime in the early 80s, I opened a Rolling Stones cassette tape. I'm not making this up, people. It's factual.

And it gets even better: he's from Minnesota and I've been to Minnesota once.

BAM. Twins.

Prince is known for being very funky. Are you ready for this? I have a Room O' Funk. It gives you the chills, doesn't it?

The evidence pile is staggering. Yep. I'm pretty confident that Prince and I are twins. Or at least best friends. Well, we would be besties if we were to ever meet.

  1. I completely understand your logic, and in fact, used the same logic as my platform as to why Madonna (aka Madge to her besties like me) are BFFs. It's true!! She sleeps with a noise machine...I sleep with a noise machine. She adores plum and navy mascara...I wear plum and navy mascara. She constantly reinvents herself via hairstyles...you've known me long enough to know that my hair is never the same cut or color. And finally (drum roll please) she's an ageless goddess...I still pass for 27 and am a self appointed queen.
