Prince Was Likely Dead for Hours Before Being Found at Paisley Park Estate: Report
I just read that a few minutes ago. It was reported that he had been dead about 6 hours. So sad.
From that article:
"I cared deeply about him, and I am not ready to speak publicly," Ellis-Lamkins told the Star Tribune. "I also know how much he valued his privacy and want to respect his wishes."
Thank you.
Dan,
I haven't been here much the last week. Thank you for posting this for me! You are one in a million.
Well, I just watched Madonna's tribute to His Royal Bad*ss. Her rendition of Nothing Compares To You was good- I felt the emotion from her. But, they screwed up Purple Rain. Could've been an exquisite moment by singing his signature song with audience participation but they opted for a 'Las Vegas' quickie.......
THis is very cool. Syncopated Ladies tribute to Prince.

I hope this brings this issue publicity. That is one evil drug.
The first I heard of it was when a friend's son OD'd.
Very sad that he took those drugs for the pain he was having.
...given the addictive property of the drug....he should never had had it in his possession, he should have been going to a pain clinic and having it administered.....or, had his own staff physician who could have gone with him on tours....he certainly had the money and smarts to have attracted a very good MD.....again, no one is a winner in this sorry mess....
This is all completely true, Scott, but he was in the 'public eye' and was probably ashamed that he had succumbed to the addictive qualities of these drugs. He would fire musicians if he found out that they were even smoking weed, let alone taking any other harder types of drugs, if they refused any type of treatment that he himself would pay for. These drugs are insidious in their addictive qualities. I still am finding it very hard to believe that he died because of this. He was a smart man and this is what makes it so hard for me to believe that he died this way. I didn't personally know him, even those in his 'inner' circle are stunned about the overdose.
....given his quirks, he was I'm sure doubly ashamed of his hypocrisy and addiction....this is why drugs are the self-administered free passes to the devil.....I don't frown on him for what happened....it just shows he was as fallible and weak as the rest of us....my heroes all have warts.....
Why did they let him fly off after the emergency landing in Illinois?
It was said that they didn't have a private room to put him in, so they let him go home.
