Yesterday I just saw Purple Rain with a friend.  It was the first time
I had been able to see Prince close up and in color.  It's obvious he
wears eyeliner, mascara, and occationally I noticed during the film
he was wearing (you guessed it!) *purple* eyeshadow.

Now, I was already positive he wore the eyeliner when I went to see
the movie, however, the rest was pretty subtle.  The eyeliner has
a dramatic effect that can't be ignored, while the rest, you have
to be looking out for.  *I* thought it looked good, and didn't feel
it made him effeminate.  It was there to bring one's attention to
the eyes (the same reason women wear it).  I *know* everybody's
saying he is gay, I don't know how the rumor started or if I believe
it, but he's not gay because he wears makeup.  So chalk up another
one for saying guys wearing makeup is okay (under the rules of
common sense, as with the ladies).

(for those interested, I've reviewed the film in net.movies)
