Prince Challenged A Nervous Interviewer To Sing “Purple Rain” On TV

Prince had a way of being quiet and still commanding everything around him. One television host looked right at him and confessed, “I am nervous,” right at the start. They had been teasing each other about playing music during the commercial break. The legendary rock star just looked at her without moving a muscle. His interview shows exactly how he handled the media spotlight and his aura.

The nervous interviewer tried to be brave and asked Prince to play his most famous song. She told him he should sing “Purple Rain” for the audience. Prince quickly fired back with a perfect answer. He told her, “I do not know that one. You do. You lie. Okay, you sing it.” This quiet challenge was a funny moment.
