Yeah apparently he's saying that it was a misquote.
Unfortunately quoting Pink Pig again (sorry
)
Contrary to what a recent interview with the New Yorker is reporting, a source close to the rocker tells us that Prince was grossly misquoted and
misinterpreted as not down with gay rights.
Apparently, the interviewer did not even use a recorder when she spoke with His Holy Purpleness, and that when she called his people to fact check, it turned
out she had several factual inaccuracies, including a little bit about Prince recovering from hip surgery, which he never even had. Like Prince is really made
of bones or something and not nebulous gold glitter - come on!
What His Purpleness actually did was gesture to the Bible and said he follows what it teaches, referring mainly to the parts about loving everyone and
refraining from judgment.
That sounds better, considering he's a man who caused his own Controversy!
"We're very angry he was misquoted," says our Prince insider.
