Part of being a Jehovah's Witness requires that members go from door to door spreading the religion's philosophies, which can be a little dangerous if the person toting "The Watchtower" literature is a world-famous music icon.
"Sometimes fans freak out. It might be a shock to see me, but that's no reason for people to act crazy, and it doesn't give them license to chase me down the street," says rock star Prince, who converted to the religion in 2001 and says he makes personal visits to strangers' homes.
He tells USA Today that he also carries a Bible with him to business meetings before making any deals.
"There are all kinds of possible deals artists aren't privy to," he tells the newspaper. "I love to bring the Bible to the table. I start by asking if they believe in God, then: 'What kind of business do you want to conduct: Transparent or hide the ball?' I'll do tours and albums if the deal is clean."
If he came to our house, we'd be convinced he was selling Mary Kay cosmetics. How about you?
