Fleetwood Mac star Stevie Nicks finally reveals what life changing advice Prince gave to her

She spent the night working on a song that would end up becoming the lead single from Nicks’ 1983 solo album “The Wild Heart” and the single went to No. 5 in the U.S. Billboard Top 100.
After writing her song ‘Stand Back” she asked for a meeting with Prince and 20 minutes later they were introduced to each other for the first time in a studio in Los Angeles.
Nicks said Prince listened to her song, inspired by his “Little Red Corvette” classic and went straight over to the keyboard to start adding his own parts.
He then got up, gave her a hug and left.

“He spoiled me for every band I’ve ever had because nobody can exactly re-create — not even with two piano players —what Prince did all by his little self,” she said in the book “Rock Lives.”
Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.

Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.

“I really wanted a musical relationship, and I had smartened up, even then,” she explained. “You’ll break up and never speak again. But he wasn’t interested in just that.”
In turn, Prince’s “When Doves Cry” was inspired by Nicks’ song “Edge of Seventeen.”

The Fleetwood Mac star said that she was heavily into drugs when she collaborated with Prince.
“The eighties were pretty bad drug years for me,” Stevie Nicks told The New Yorker. “And Prince was not very into drugs. And the fact that he ended up being on a lot of pain medication just blows my mind, because he was so against it, and he gave me so many lectures about it.”
The “Gypsy” singer said Prince warned her about her drug use. “I’d talk to him every once in a while on the phone, and we’d talk for hours, and he’d go, ‘You gotta be careful, Stevie.’ And I’d go, ‘I know, I know.’”
Following his death Nicks said, “My sadness is that he did die of an accidental drug overdose. He’s up there looking down, saying to me, ‘Sweetie, I can’t believe it happened either.’”

It seems Prince was right to be worried at the time as Nicks ended up in rehab twice. The singer checked into the Betty Ford clinic in 1986 for her cocaine addiction, and then went to another hospital in 1993 for her addiction to Klonopin, which Nicks said she was over-prescribed.
But in 1986, Nicks spoke to a plastic surgeon about her nose. The doctor told her she had burned a coin-sized hole in her nose from her cocaine abuse.
“I said, ‘What do you think about my nose?’” the singer recalled. “And he said, ‘Well, I think the next time you do a hit of cocaine, you could drop dead.’”
Following her conversation with the doctor, Nicks decided to check into the Betty Ford clinic. The move helped turn her life around and arguably saved her career and her life.
Thank goodness she had a conversation that set her on the right path. It sounds like it came at just the right time.
It is, however, a tragedy that Prince couldn’t get off the harmful opioids that he was on. Nicks’ story just confirms the musical genius he really was and how generous he was with his talent.
He will always be a musical legend, missed by millions.

10 years after the fame: how has changed the life of the beautiful girl Honey Boo Boo after winning the beauty contest

When this little girl appeared on the TV screen, she captivated all viewers with her lively character and outstanding appearance. Honey Boo Boo delighted the audience at the beautiful children contest, where she took the main prize. There was no doubt that she would be the favorite. The audience was delighted with the child. Alana effectively posed for the camera, all her appearances caused a strong reaction from the public. And the coronation at this competition was only the beginning of her modeling and television career.

The little girl then started hosting her TV show ”Here Comes Honey Boo Boo”. From here came her nickname, which everyone remembered and liked. Growing up, the girl didn’t disappear from TV, at times she participated in various programs. But her real life was far from a happy fairy tale.

With her teenage period, it turned out that the beautiful girl was changing, and not for the better. Alana began to have difficulties with being overweight, and besides, there is a hereditary factor: her mother and sisters suffer from high obesity.

Alana is 17, she will soon graduate from school and go to study at a university as a doctor. Her dream is to work with babies, to be a nurse. She is still “starring as a star”, but her life plans surprise many immensely. And Alana also wants to be loved as a person, and not as a pop star Honey Boo Boo. For several years now, she has been asking everyone around her to address her by her real name and surname. In fact, she has no girlfriends and friends with whom she could talk heart to heart.

But not everything is so sad, the girl already has a fan. His name is Drelyn Carsville, he is four years older than Alana and supports her in everything. The girl feels joyful and happy, forgets about her problems being with him.

The girl is growing up and becomes wiser, and one can only rejoice about this, because not all star children were able to overcome this difficult period painlessly.
