Graham Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 http://www.tmz.com/2016/04/21/prince-dead-at-57/ The above website are carrying the story that Prince has died today, nothing on BBC or the Guardian yet, so will wait for confirmation from another source. I've never been heavily into Prince, but I know a fair few on here will be upset if it's confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
