Prince actually LOVED Fred doing impressions of him and would watch all of them. He thought it was the funniest effing thing he had ever seen and that no one could do him justice like Fred did. Prince was weird, but he was so chill.

@@gregorybell3479 I agree. Prince had a deep speaking voice and a much better singing voice. This skit is funny but way too much of the weird Prince. None of the self-aware humor/irony of the real Prince.

@@sdatkins2676 From all I know. Every Star has had some weird story about prince. But the funny thing about it is the hoops and hurdles they had to go through just to meet him. So I think the skit hits the hammer on the head. Most celebrities would sit on a snowmobile for no reason just to meet Prince. Look up the video on Foo Fighter singer Dave Grohl and what he had to go through just to meet prince. Crazy stories.
Maya little smile and shrug when her hoop falls off at 1:08

I've been watching SNL since 1975. I think the Prince Show w/ Beyonce is one of the funniest recurring pieces I have ever seen on the show. There is so much love and admiration for Prince in the skits. I'm glad Prince got to see them while he was still with us. RIP Prince Rogers Nelson.

I have always been a huge fan of Prince, hence my avatar, but never seen these skits until today. Omg they are hilarious! Prince mannerisms are spot on, the set is perfect. Maya is gorgeous, her voice in these is so sexy and alluring. De Niro vroom vrooming on the pseudo Purple Rain motorbike .. classic! ❤❤❤❤❤️🔥❤️🔥

Robert de Niro certainly didn't do alot of SNL sketches. The ones he did do, he had to have plenty of tolerance built up as he's a real no-nonsense kind of guy.
