VTV 13,982 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 This is a late news but I just found out that Posh! The Prince (born as Francois Ronique Veira) already passed away last Dec 10, 2024. https://www.articobits.com/obituaries/willie-a-watkins-funeral-home-inc/mr-francois-ronique-bozeman-veira-obituary Context for new gen fans: For all the 2010 shows, Posh played Tamborine and was also a character (as himself) in the storyline of The Monster Ball. His role was taken over by Victor Rojas in 2011 with Ian McKenzie puppeteering The Fame Monster (angler fish) during "Paparazzi". Posh fit so well with the MB sotryline. He's in his own lane vibing with the tambourine and all. It sucks that he wasnt able to be part of the HBO special. Share your stories/best memory of him onthis thread to honor a fallen angel. 1 6 3 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anton 181 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 (edited) What is the Monster Ball really all about without this legend ? Edited July 14 by anton 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagzus 23,458 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 (edited) He was also the inspiration for Posh Life! The song is inspired by his coming out and being made homeless by his parents because they were religious. RIP legend you are sorely missed and are a core memory for us who went to the show.

Panchecco 17,894 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 oh... I didn't know this. I loved how much acting from the dancers she included during the Monster Ball. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage 1,813 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 This thread isn’t getting nearly enough attention. 😔 POSH! was not only an essential piece of The Monster Ball, he was one of Gaga’s good friends in the earliest days of her career—we’re talking pre-The Fame. What a terrible loss, may he Rest in Peace. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepingSun 1,435 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Rest in power, Prince Posh! I remember seeing him radiate freedom and glamour on countless Monster Ball fan recordings We live a posh life. We're nothing but our leather and our dreams. You gotta trust in the future of us. Believe! Posh life.

Lord Mayhem 3,450 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 (edited) How was this not bigger news? I had no idea! Ugh that's horrible! Was Gaga even aware? I'm surprised I dont remember her saying anything but then again maybe she privately was grieving Edited July 26 by Lord Mayhem 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
