Prince

HIGH DEFINITION RESTORATION

[mostlymarilynmonroe]

 When I arrived the next afternoon for a second session she immediately asked to postpone our talk. She was tired out, she said, from negotiations with 20th Century Fox over resumption of Something’s Got To Give. But she hospitably offered me a drink and we chatted. She was obviously upset. But there was no hint of morose despair. She was electric with indignation and began talking angrily about how studios treat their stars. Then she paused, said she needed something to help overcome her tiredness and got a glass of champagne. I asked if she had ever wished that she were tougher. She answered, “Yes - but I don’t think it would be very feminine to be tough. Guess I’ll settle for the way I am.”      We were interrupted when her doctor arrived. Marilyn bounded out to the kitchen, returned with a little ampule, and holding it up to me said, “No kidding, they’re making me take liver shots. Here, I’ll prove it to you.” By then she was willing to talk on, and it was nearly midnight when Marilyn jumped up and announced she was going to throw a steak on the grill. She came back to say there was no steak and no food at all. Before I left one of the last things she said was, “With fame, you know, you can read about yourself, somebody else’s ideas about you, but what’s important is how you feel about yourself - for survival and living day to day with what comes up.” -“A Last Long Talk With A Lonely Girl” by Richard Meryman for Life Magazine, August 17, 1962

Nona Gaye shares her fondest memories of Prince

April, 21 2016  |  9:00PM

ROLAND: On the phone lines right now is the daughter of Marvin Gaye—the actress—Nona Gaye. Nona, welcome to TV ONE.

NONA: Thank you so very much Roland. Thank you for having me.

ROLAND: This has to be a very difficult moment for you. We certainly— our prayers go out to you as well. just share your initial thoughts about Prince Rogers Nelson.

NONA: My initial thoughts, uhh, were, um, really just that I couldn’t internalize the fact that it was real when I heard it from my mother; my mother gave me the news. And um, I have just been, uh, going over memories and um, you know uhh, things that he use to say and do and that we use to do together and Um, just really, I’ve just had a very tough-tough day. Um, probably one of the toughest days I’ve had since my father passed to be really honest with you, you know. He was an incredible man… an unbelievably, unfathomably talented artist—we all know that. He was also a beautiful, beautiful man. I miss him and I will miss him for the rest of my life.

ROLAND: Nona, how long were the two of you together?

NONA: Uhh, About three years—three years we were together.

ROLAND: I had a conversation earlier with Anthony Hamilton and one of the things he said was he said Prince had an amazing sense of humor.

NONA: Yeah (giggle) He did, He was actually quite funny. He really was. He made me laugh all the time. and I know people um kind of, uhh, think of him as being very shy. If you didn’t know him—yes, he could give that off. But if you did know him, he was quite silly and very funny and would crack a lot of jokes, and umm(Nona starts to get choked up) and I’m sure that’s another thing I’ll miss a lot.

ROLAND: He also was a very private man

NONA: Extremely. Extremely private. Umm, it’s funny that you use that word because the very first time that we spoke, I said “I know that you’re a very private person.” Umm, because he had asked me to kind of, um, write em’ a letter. And, umm, uhh, you know, so I did, but It was very, it was kind of a very private thing—our correspondence. And, umm you know. I think he kind of enjoyed his privacy. It was very, it was very interesting for me, because I was 17. I’d never experienced anything like…him. and you know, I never will again. He was amazing and one of a kind and we’ve lost an incredibly wonderful and talented man—an icon.

Like I said, it’s been very difficult but he’s in a better place now. He’s with everybody else, who’s left to early, you know?  I think maybe there up there jamming. I hope so. That’s what I like to think about is everybody together; my father, Michael and now Prince. You know. Being free of anything that’s painful or uncomfortable on this earth. That we uh, have to deal with.
