“It is with profound sadness that I am confirming that the legendary, iconic performer, Prince Rogers Nelson, has died at his Paisley Park residence this morning at the age of 57,” [his publicist] said in a statement. “There are no further details as to the cause of death at this time.”
I did not want to believe this, but multiple sources are reporting. RIP Prince.
