Very true

Rosie was so good at interviewing... she was truly star struck with her guests and so very kind.

What made him so sexy was is shyness and awkwardness, but he has such a sense of humor. Miss him

Prince was so shy. It’s was the “ eye covering” for me when Rosie called him cute. RIP The Purple One💜

He was so soft spoken.

Prince rarely did television! Thank you for uploading this interview!

omg just seeing this makes me miss him so much! rip prince…💜

When I reflect back over the years. Rosie is actually a better interviewer in my opinion than Oprah, Barbara, and Whoopi. More sincerity, genuine, and more relatable.

Absolutely. She made her guests feel like they were just having a conversation with a friend. Even when she asked personal questions, it didn't feel intrusive.

What a sense of humor he had!! RIP Artist

R.I.P. Prince!!! This is gold right here!!

You did good here Rosie. He was a tough one to get an answer from and I think he enjoyed your humor.

He's seems shy but intimidating

Love this man and this song, and even better him doing it live Alright now I just found this love it. 😍

I'll miss Prince forever. I was such a huge fan. As a kid I remember seeing Purple Rain numerous times in the theatre . Typically you see a movie once then waited for it to come out on vhs but Prince was the shiznit!!❤️❤️❤️ He was truly gifted and talented. I still play his music around the house.

Oh my heart breaks, what a shame. --- that smile!! We Miss you sweet Prince!!

He was a beautiful man. Wow.

He was in the prime of his life here on this appearance.....makes me feel sad knowing the heartache he would later endure. I still love you everyday. R.I.P. my Prince.

I think that I saw the tail end of it in history class back in high school and man was it such a special treat to see him on TV performing especially in those days.

Great to see Prince with Rosie O'Donnell.

I have loved this man forever. Seriously miss him.

So happy 2 see it in pristine quality ! Wish the performance was included...

Beautiful soul. So talented.

Great interview Prince!! Sweet man and handsome tooooo💜💜💜💜

I f*n adore this side of Prince, so playful. 😄

He’s Gorgeous!❤

I feel his spirit… It appears that he’s turned off by appearance related compliments or anything about his personal life… Very Private just like Michael and Janet Jackson

Good job with Prince, he's gotta be a hard interview if you could even get one. He's missed.

Love you Prince!!! Very much missed!!! Gone tooooo soon!❤️❤️

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰Thanks Rosie

Love him.

Rip prince gone too soon just like Michael Jackson. 😢. Wish they were still here alive !

I miss this show 😢

Of the greats! Miss his being here.

RIP Prince 🙏

I love how Rosie pisses him off repeatedly.

Prince is so cheekie luv him

I miss prince 💜

Strange, when this was happening he was older than me. Now im older than him.

What’s the point of him sitting down in a talk show, knowing he’s going to be questioned, and then barely answer the questions and act uncomfortable as hell? What an enigma.

Prince loved music and the art of making it and performing but i feel like he hated the superficial showbiz side of it. The expectation to present oneself a certain way... the "fakeness" of Hollywood.

He had a very difficult childhood. Maybe it made it difficult for him to relax around and trust people he didn't know well. Nothing to do with his sexuality.

It doesn't cost a thing to be polite and he chose to be rude and stand-offish. He always struck me as someone that tried so, so hard to seem deep and intelligent but he accomplished that by attempting to make others feel as uncomfortable and broken as he clearly was inside. I actually felt sorry for Rosie as she tried so hard to make this work despite his rudeness.

@kadrae5277

Rude? OK. Here's the thing. At that time, much of mainstream media often made fun of the symbol name. You can see that he was bothered when Rosie called him TAFKAP. Then, she called him TAFFY. I would say that although he was upset, he still handled himself very well as opposed to other guests who might've cussed her out, damaged her stage, and walked off the show. IJS.

Wanting respect is rude now? Okay let someone call you something you don’t like in a meeting at your job. You just sit there and smile while being mistreated. That’s your choice. Prince handled it with humor but also let her know that he’s not one to be made a fool out of. Some people have something called self-love/respect and won’t compromise it in order to seem nice.

It was much more her that was being kind of rude. He was probably doing his best to hang in there & not just walk off on her. This has always been an interview that bothered me. Letterman was like that with him once. Notice that he never did their shows again. He pretty much only did the Tonight Show from then on
