    the image of PRINCE sitting alone, eating mac n cheese, and /still/ being sassy about it is everything lol

  • @cathleenrocco4804
    @cathleenrocco4804 3 роки тому +2366

    I suspect Prince had an incredibly dry sense of humor, and the fact that no one could ever tell if he was joking or not was part of the fun for him.

    I love how Hader gets a big kick out of stuff. That guy loves to laugh.

      I’d put him up there with Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Eddie Murphy and Phil Hartman in terms of best SNL cast members. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are also two of the greats.

      Bill Hader's laugh should be bottled as a cure for depression.

  • @picklesthewise
    @picklesthewise 3 роки тому +451

    Prince's response was cute. He just wanted to be a regular guy at the party enjoying his mac and cheese. It was totally meant as a joke.

  • @KrisHoppz
    @KrisHoppz 3 роки тому +492

    Prince was clearly joking, chill Howard. I laughed so hard listening to the story.

  • @moirarose4754
    @moirarose4754 3 роки тому +214

    That totally sounds like something Prince would say. Since he was 17 years old, people have told him how amazing he was. Surely, he had to have a million ways to respond to people constantly coming up to him with praises.

  • @clarissar1528
    @clarissar1528 3 роки тому +1352

    Why is Howard being so damn pessimistic about Princes’ response. I think he was being funny and snarky and Fred didnt know how to react to it.

    • @thestever
      @thestever 3 роки тому +212

      I thought the exact same thing. Even Fred was trying to be like "no it wasnt like that". Howard was probably projecting his own anxieties

    • @rubyrayne8
      @rubyrayne8 3 роки тому +75

      I know! I was thinking Howard must have social anxiety or some other issues where he thinks of the worst case scenario in a social situation. I don’t get how saying “do you know what I think the greatest is? This Mac n cheese.” is in no way belittling. Objectively there’s nothing negative about it. The story Fred told was funny. If I was there if he like “really it’s that good?! Ill have to try some.” But damn Howard must distrust ppl and their intentions. Howard be acting like prince knew Fred wanted confirmation from him and activity with and it.
      Or dude doesn’t like prince.

    • @willisryanbrown
      @willisryanbrown 3 роки тому +13

      Probably because Howard is such a people person. He can’t imagine someone not engaging with fans.

    • @sogiki

      Howard should understand more than anyone bc he hates compliments.

  • @timac5507
    @timac5507 3 роки тому +87

    I actually cannot imagine a cooler response than "you know what I think is the greatest? - this mac and cheese." How perfect is that? What else is he supposed to say? He's Prince. He had people telling him that crap every day of his life. As someone who's been around the absurdly famous for as long as he has, I'm surprised Fred (or Howard for that matter) didn't appreciate it on that level.

    "Why did he say that?"
    Because he was a normal guy with a good sense of humor! Jesus, have you ever see an interview with him?

    • @jaydubya3698
      @jaydubya3698 3 роки тому +13

      IKR? I don't know what's wrong with Armisen or Howard for thinking that was a weird response. To me it sounds like he was just trying to make Fred relax and say, "Yeah, welp...can't disagree with that. Lemme get a blow of that...it looks like it's the shit" and then have a laugh. Instead, Fred gets all weirded out. I don't get it.

    I think Prince was being sincere too! I think he lived a life where he had to acknowledge the impact he had on people, but was always aware he was just a dude that wanted to play his music.

  • @EduardoASaad
    @EduardoASaad 3 роки тому +124

    I think Prince was deflecting praise, instead of inflating his ego with it. (And, also saying he was enjoying his mac n cheese.)
    I really like Bill, and Seth, and Fred.
    I think that what was out of Prince's hands, is what F, S, B and, especially H would do with his answer.
    It surprised me how no one in the video saw what I saw, and instead turned it into something else.
    (Granted, he also may have been suggesting he might have wanted to be left to enjoy his mac n cheese).
    I think he was being cool about it.

    "it's the Prince Shooooooow, Prince Shoooooow" Prince was just being funny and sweet w the mac n cheese. It's actually just a humble thing to say and divert the convo from seriousness of how awesome he is / was.

    • @TTatham
      @TTatham 3 роки тому +11

    • @stanmalone7745
      @stanmalone7745 3 роки тому +47

      He likes to tell a story about when he went to an intimate, small, private Prince concert, and Prince insisted on performing with the lights out so no one could see him. I think he was insulted and felt like he wasted his time. He may even claim to have walked out - I forget the details - seems like maybe there were no chairs, either. So yeah, he probably does have animosity towards him. Howard's ego is as big as anyone's in show business.

    • @sttarch5150

    • @marioe6714
      @marioe6714 3 роки тому +11

      Howard told a story where Prince performed at a private party but had the lights turned off and this pissed Howard off. He's a big fan of Prince's music.

    Howard is big time projecting. Or doesn’t like Prince. To say prince was trying to humiliate him bc he said “you know what I love? This Mac n cheese.” is just kinda sad. Seems exhausting to always think everyone is out to get you or humiliate you.

    • @katebadley5464
      @katebadley5464 3 роки тому +7

      I agree. I think he was poking holes in fame. A commentary on the absurdity of celebrity. It’s why he disassociated the man from the symbol(ism). Cerebral man. He got it.
