Omg Omg Prince Has A Crush On West Side Story Star Karen Olivo

Pocket-sized singer Prince has apparently become quite taken with Tony award-winning singer Karen Olivo. The artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince had apparently been watching the Tonys at home (Neil Patrick Harris’ mother and yours truly were the only other people doing this) when he caught a glimpse of Olivo and positively queefed a teaspoonful of purple glitter. 

Prince immediately fetched his crystal pegasus and rode away to the award show’s after-parties, where he met Karen. He decided, then and there, that he wanted to ruin West Side Story for everyone else:

He decided he had to meet her that night, and used his Princely ways to track her down. After a few minutes at the rooftop party, he sequestered himself in a corner with Olivo and several other girls from the show. A very reliable source tells us Prince plans to see West Side next Tuesday. He’s asked for a spot in the balcony and wants to buy twenty tickets so no one can sit near him.

Go ahead. It’s not like 20 other people in Iowa are currently planning a New York City vacation expressly to see this musical. You insensitive but magical jerk.

This isn’t the first time that Prince has been interested in a Latina. He used to date actress Vanessa Marcil and even wrote a song to Valentina Pinault about the possibility of him doing sexytimes with her mother, Salma Hayek. In any case, he certainly has a thing for olive-skinned, doe-eyed women who… look just like him?
