Prince Show with Shia LaBeouf - SNL

[@bbygalrea9682]

Prince sent an email to Fred Armisen regrading these skits... He said that he enjoyed the skits 🙏💜

[@nawfaleffendi9132]

really??RIP Prince

[@NiVi192]

That was one great sport!👌🏻

[@gstevens6948]

that's cool....

[@eschwarz1003]

was wondering what Prince may have thought. RIP great one

[@bluebear1985]

I think they actually did one of these sketches in 2006 when Prince was the musical guest. The host that night was Steve Martin.

[@WillWize]

I think this is by far the best Maya-Beyonce impression. It’s so spot on! She actually can sing too, she was even doing Beys runs. Everyone did a job👏🏾

[@notthefather3919]

That's Minnie Riperton's daughter.

[@burnyizland]

@@notthefather3919 Somebody told me last week she's the chick that sang loooooving youuuu is easy cause you're beautiful, do do do do AHHHHHHH! No wonder Maya grew up and went into comedy!

The head tilt, the vacant stare, the posing. Maya really knows what she is doing.

[@paulamiles9559]

Shes such a perfect Beyonce, sometimes I forget that she's Maya doing a flattering and loving impression.

[@motoknivesandgunsbyjt]

Her Mom was Minnie Ripperton who sang "Loving You". Show biz runs deep.

[@kkingmusic13]

This skit is awarded relevant to the fact that prince died & beyonce has the lemonade dress on.... It's like they already knew, snl already knew

Awkwardly

[@lucasgilmour7292]

It's an old skit form the late 2000's but they reposted it because prince died

Fred is a living legend and this is proof he's the best Prince impersonation ever

[@donniegrande9186]

prince show in heaven now!

[@yolandagee3925]

Hysterical! I loved Prince but the way Fred plays him... especially when he's rocking the guitar he just has him right. Lol.......

I have yet to *ever* disagree with Prince! Tobey Mcguire on a cupcake.

Did anyone see the Prince snl tribute? It had all of these! A great man we lost

[@anthonygordon9483]

I don't think the crowd knew that Fred was actually playing the Guitar.

[@palcada]

Prince did not own a cellphone but I'm pretty shure that if he had, his case would have a picture of himself riding a tiger while playing the guitar on a dessert.

Prince had a huge sense of humor and he found this, along with Dave Chapelle's portrails funny, he even makes references to them.

[@colorsofrain5158]

+Jasmine Bischof The episode of Prince on Chapelle's show was #1 skit of all time. But it was true! How great would it of been eating Prince made pancakes? Prince was so cool! (Shirts versus blouses---CLASSIC!) :)

He isn't makin references now chief.

[@WardNightstone]

in all honetly Prince is probabbly the only person Beyonce would have willingly played sidekick to

[@pedrosantos929]

+Ward Nightstone Wrong. Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, The Rolling Stones, Etta James, just to name a few.

[@pe3zus]

+Pedro Santos Michael Jackson??? You know those two had a feud that prevented them from even making music together? (Boy, did the world miss out!) +Ward Nightstone Why can't they be their own individual acts? They're not superheroes lol. You have to have an inflated ego to make it in their weird business anyway. It'd only be a matter of time before Beyonce pulled a "Destiny Child's-sans-Beyonce" again.

[@kiamaria331]

+Peezy S Prince and Michael didn't have a feud if that's who you mean. Michael and Beyonce? Did I miss something?

[@pe3zus]

+Kia Maria Google it. Apparently, it spanned over some years too. will.i.am was trying to get credit for "ending the feud" after the news of Prince's death broke.

[@kiamaria331]

Peezy S From the mouth of someone who knew Prince: Cassandra O'Neal, longtime keyboardist for Prince, said that in actuality the two didn't have beef. In fact, they admired each other. "Michael was a definite influence and inspiration for Prince," she told ABC News. "They both respected each other and that's the cool thing." "There was a place in [his] Paisley [Park residence] ... and there's a screen and nice big old couch and we would watch old clips of 'Soul Train' and he would talk about just the influences that he had," O'Neal recalled. "Michael and his brothers were definitely a part of that." O'Neal said their relationship is something to be modeled."We as musicians can take so much from that. Nowadays with social media, it's so competitive," she added. "'I'm doing this and your not.' They didn't do this. The ones that really had it like that didn't do that to each other. They embraced each other and he really made it a point to let us know that."

He said he was saddened because the guitar was actually given to him by prince and he was one of those celebs who got the chance to play ping pong and have prince made food. You can find the stories and videos online all about it. He said he won't get over it.

[@idadudenmanner]

"Nancy Grace, all your singing has scared Prince. He is hiding" cut to him hiding. I don't know why it's funny, but it is. That said the props department sure went all out with Prince's guitar, esp for a five minute sketch...

[@Mowmauf]

My question is did Fred really play I know he can

[@Ocker3]

As if Fred doesn't have a guitar like that already! ;)

[@gerritpeacock3571]

That was nice of them to do an homage to Prince's "while my guitar gently weeps" solo. His performance at the R&R HoF made lots of people readjust their best guitarist list.

Thank you, SNL. I've been looking for the old spoofs on Prince, but they've been difficult to find as every video link I pull up in Safari auto-switches to the NBC app when I click on it. Once in the app, I must re-enter the search. But it has yet to find one video. So THANK YOU for posting this!
