Prince rinsed: Sinead gobbed on pop royalty
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly June 8th, 2007

Lairy Irish pop-bint Sinead O'Connor has revealed how her and that Prince geezer had a right tasty set-to back in ver day.

"We wouldn’t be the best of friends – me and Prince," snorted O'Connor in this morning's Daily Mirror.

"At the time he had a lot of female protégées and I had covered his song without having anything to do with him. He invited me to his house in Los Angeles and started to give out to me for swearing in interviews."

If either of the two were to wash their mouths out with soap, I knew who I'd be passing the bar to. We all know about you Prince! You and your filthy 'lover's stoop'.

But that's beside the point. Relevance:

"When I told him to go fuck himself he got very upset and became quite threatening, physically. I ended up having to escape. He can pack a punch. A few blows were exchanged.

"All I could do was spit. I spat on him quite a bit."
