Prince | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

The Prince Estate is remembering the late icon two years after his death with a very special release.

The estate released the original version of “Nothing Compares 2 U” on Thursday (April 19), recorded in 1984 – six years before Sinead O’Connor‘s version.

The track was recorded at the Flying Cloud Drive ‘Warehouse’ in Eden Prairie by Prince‘s longtime engineer Susan Rogers, and originally created and performed by Prince.

The new version of the song is now available to stream, and comes with an official video featuring never-before-seen footage of Prince & The Revolution practicing choreography during 1984 in that same warehouse.

Some new details about Prince‘s cause of death have been released.

In a new toxicology report from the Associated Press, experts revealed that the singer, who passed away at the age of 57 in April of 2016, had 67.8 micrograms per liter of fentanyl in his blood. The toxicology report goes on to explain that deaths from fentanyl have been documented in people who have three to 58 micrograms per liter found in their body at their time of death.

“The amount in [Prince’s] blood is exceedingly high, even for somebody who is a chronic pain patient on fentanyl patches,” Dr. Lewis Nelson, chairman of emergency medicine at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, said in a statement.

In addition, the amount of fentanyl in Prince‘s liver was at 450 micrograms per kilogram. Levels higher than 69 micrograms per kilogram “seem to represent overdose or fatal toxicity cases.”

Prince‘s cause of death was revealed to be an opioid overdose back in June of 2016.

Rest in peace, Prince.

During the show, Justin sang alongside a large projection of Prince, singing his classic “I Would Die 4 U.”

Reports first surfaced over the weekend suggesting that Justin would be performing alongside a Prince hologram during his performance, which was denied by Sheila E.

A report emerged this weekend suggesting Justin Timberlake‘s Super Bowl halftime show would feature a hologram of Prince as a tribute to the late Minneapolis based artist.

There was almost immediate backlash to the news, as Prince apparently said he never wanted to be remembered via a hologram, according to his former drummer Sheila E. “Prince told me don’t ever let anyone do a hologram of me. Not cool if this happens!,” Sheila E tweeted.

Later on in the evening, Sheila E took to Twitter to confirm she actually spoke to Justin, and there would be no hologram used.

Family, I spoke w/Justin 2nite and he shared heartfelt words of respect for Prince & the Purple fans. I look 4wrd 2 seeing what I’m sure is going 2 be a spectacular halftime show. There is no hologram.

It was just revealed that Beyonce has written the forward to the new book, “Prince: A Private View,” by Afshin Shahidi.

While the book has not been released, EW obtained a one-line preview of the forward, which read, “Truth be told, the word ‘icon’ only scratches the surface of what Prince was and what he remains to me.”

Afshin was a friend of Prince‘s for 20 years and acted as his photographer.

Prince tragically passed away at the age of 57 last year.

The book will be released on October 17.

Jimmy recalled the time Prince stopped by to perform, but forgot his guitar, according to Variety.

So he borrowed one from The Roots guitarist Kirk Douglas and at the end of the performance he threw “the guitar up to the crowd but there’s no one to catch it…It broke in half,” Jimmy said.

But don’t worry, Prince did pay for it.
