I got a question. Why do people say, Kim included, that Kim was Prince's stylist for 28 years. The math can't be that bad... 2016-28=1988. Kim always has said that she came around D&P, making her responsible for the typhoon. Earl Jones, Jill's uncle, was his hairstylist from circa 1982 to circa 1990. His name is found on all the receipts from the big tours where we have printouts of the staff like PR and all of that jazz. I understand that people forget dates when they're older (Kim isn't even old, honestly.) and Kim was never a Prince fan, or so she says because EVERYBODY liked Prince. If you didn't like him, you liked a song he wrote for somebody else, you liked one of his artists, or you like a cover/sample they did of his song... you were a fan unless you lived under a rock.

BUT ANYWAY, I can't see how nobody has corrected this yet. I remember one particular interview when Kim says that and the interviewer says, "Oh, so you came on board for LoveSexy?" and Kim was like, "Uh, no. I came with the straight press for Graffiti Bridge and Diamonds & Pearls.... Yes, ma'am, 28 years!" and I'm just sitting there like...

I like Kim but it secretly irks me that we keep saying twenty eight years when EARL JONES' NAME IS ON THE RECEIPTS

I like Kim but it secretly irks me that we keep saying twenty eight years when EARL JONES' NAME IS ON THE RECEIPTS. So, unless I'm wrong, which is very possible too, I'm gone keep saying that Kim Berry was his stylist for roughly 25 years and not 28.

And whoever is responsible for these fingerwaves has a special place in heaven

And whoever is responsible for these fingerwaves has a special place in heaven. That would be my man, Earl Jones. R.I.P💜
