The SXSW weekend festivity drew some very popular singers but it lacked a special diva factor to make the fun complete. So, the Samsung Galaxy promoters called on the don of high heels himself, Prince, to bless the show with the magic of the ancient ageless vampires.
Usually, our Way Back Wednesday special highlights great performances and videos by artists across the industry, and we rarely compare those works. However, this week’s edition is an all out war between male and female entertainers in our very first battle of the sexes!
Last evening, the stars aligned and cosmos trembled as two of the greatest artists of our time appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Big brother and little sister, Mariah Carey and Prince, both graced the stage of the show and unleashed the sweet nectar of the glorious divas from the heavens.
The 2013 Grammy Awards are merely days away so you should expect several major news breaks to occur later this week. The first of those announcement came earlier today when it was revealed that Bruno Mars, Beyonce and Prince will all make appearances at the big show.
When Beyonce shared footage of her rehearsal for the 2013 Super Bowl Halftime Show, I joked that the scenes of her on a laptop were telltale signs of her surfing the web for inspiration from more original entertainers. Little did I know that I was right on the stolen money.
Did you know that Prince was the most prolific hit-maker on the Billboard Hot 100 during the 1980s and 1990s?
In case you didn’t know, Prince is one of the most talented artists to ever strut across a stage in a pair of pumps. So, just imagine the excitement that erupted across the industry when this legend finally embraced the internet, launched his own website and released a new song called “Screw Driver”.
Prince will be honored with the Icon Award and perform at the upcoming 2013 Billboard Music Awards, so it’s quite fitting that he covers the latest issue of Billboard magazine. In case you didn’t know, the ceremony will air live via ABC on May 19th.
