Gay Tony Prince

Background

Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince is an American nightclub entrepreneur born around 1958 who grew up in Dukes, Liberty City. After decades running venues there, including Maisonette 9 and Hercules, he was known as the long-reigning king of Liberty City nightlife, despite arrests, rehab stints and heavy debts. By 2018 he has moved his business interests to Los Santos. He is voiced by D.B. Cooper.

Role in GTA Online

Tony returns with the After Hours update in July 2018 as a partner in the player's nightclub business, working alongside English Dave and Lazlow Jones. He lends the venture his name and experience, comments on how the club is run, and frequently bickers with Lazlow, whose vanity tests even Tony's patience. The club's resident DJs, including The Black Madonna, perform there, and Tony is often found around the venue.

His GTA Online vehicles carry personal touches: a black Schafter V12 with the plate "PR1NCE", a white Patriot Stretch with the plate "PR2NCE" and a chrome Buzzard.

Personality

Tony is theatrical, self-deprecating and quick with a cutting line. Years of excess have left him world-weary, but he still knows exactly how a club should feel.

Trivia

• He first appeared as a minor character in Grand Theft Auto IV and The Lost and Damned before headlining The Ballad of Gay Tony.
