TRIVIA:
- Son of jazz pianist 'John L. Nelson' (qv).
- In November 2005 he was told by his doctors that he would need a hip replacement following years of energetic dancing on stage.
- He joins 'Sylvester Stallone' (qv), 'Roberto Benigni' (qv), 'Kevin Costner' (qv), 'William Shatner' (qv) and 'Tom Green (III)' (qv) as being the only actors to direct themselves in performances that would win them a Razzie Award for Worst Actor.
- Thrilled his hometown fans by performing three shows over twelve hours, only stopping when police shut him down. The Minneapolis native first performed at a department store to promote his new cologne, cramming nine songs into a 45-minute set. He then played that night at the Target Center arena. He capped the night with a return to First Avenue, the club he made famous in the movie _Purple Rain (1984)_ (qv). Minnesota's governor and the Minneapolis mayor issued proclamations honoring Prince, and fans flew in from all over the country to see the performer. After the Target Center, Prince waited until nearly 2:45 a.m. before starting the First Avenue show, the first time he had played at the club since 1987. The city lets music play until 4 a.m. He was 15 songs and 70 minutes into a 24-song set when he announced from the stage: "The authorities say we gotta go. We always listen to the authorities. I promise I'll be back." (7 July 2007).
- Was to duet with 'Michael Jackson (I)' (qv) on his album "Bad", but could not decide on the words to the song.
- Played the song "1999" for the last time at a New Year's Eve party in 1999, then announced he was retiring the song.
- Winner of the 1992 Brit Award for International Solo Artist.
- He was voted the 28th greatest Rock & Roll Artist of all time by "Rolling Stone" magazine.
