'New Girl' Cast & Creator Remember Prince's Appearance Fondly
Prince is rightfully being remembered for his contribution to music, but let’s not also forget his amazing stint on New Girl.
The late legend made a particularly memorable guest appearance on the post-Super Bowl episode of the show back in 2014, which was watched by over 25 million viewers.
The show’s creator Elizabeth Meriwether as well as star Jake Johnson both took to social media as soon as news broke of his death.
“Having Prince on our show was one of the best moments of my life. He was extraordinary,” Liz tweeted.
Jake wrote, “Meeting big stars is mostly disappointing in one way or another, but that was not the case w Prince. He was everything I hoped he’d be.”
