Holy cow, Prince at the time was very jealous i guess?

Unless this quote is nonsense...

Michael Jackson's album was only called "Bad" because there wasn't enough room on the sleeve for 'Pathetic.

In all seriousness it sound like urban legend type joke to play on the PR rivalry between MJ and Prince. Unfortunately, the fans get sucked into this bullcrap. I have talk to an inside source that told me MJ and Prince had a secret relationship that including talking over the phone alot, jammin together, hanging out from time to time. They were not the best of friends but they indeed have a friendly relationship.

If that was the case, I don't think Prince would have performed The Way You Make Me Feel at some of his concerts in the late 80s. I think that's a fake quote, especially since it comes from a site called Basic Jokes.

Its a fake quote, Prince never said this, so I'm closing this.
