Talked with Peyton Manning about this..One of his memories of winning that Super Bowl was Prince playing in the rain

I'm pretty sure he was a Jehovas Witness. They have some rules regarding medical treatment.

He was a pretty frail dude. I know he had epilepsy as a child and I'm pretty sure he had Lupus as well.

No, Robin Williams.

It was Raspberry Beret. I was 4 years old. Yes, 4. I remember that I instantly loved it. "Mommy, who is that singing?" Seems weird but it's true. More than a "once in a lifetime" artist... Just a ONCE IN FOREVER ARTIST. I'm still in shock as I write this and I feel this overwhelming grief. But, we should all turn away from that and HONOR this musician that changed all of our lives, our perspectives, our feeling, our whole being. From another planet? Probably. Royalty, for sure. Us worthy..? Laughable. They say don't meet your idols... That they let you down. But, some of my greatest, funniest (yes, he was hilarious), and most prolific encounters and conversations about music came from the moments that I spent with him. It would be silly to say that he has inspired our music... It's beyond that. He's somewhere within every song I've ever written. I am sad, but I will smile when I think of every second that I had the fortune of being in his company. We have lost our greatest living musician. But his music will never die. Prince, NOTHING COMPARES...

An alleged comment from Eric Clapton:

There are multiple reports that Eric Clapton was once asked what it was like to be the greatest guitar player alive, and he responded, "I don't know. Ask Prince."

Racist bitch (not you, the viewer)

I have some really sad news.

CNN just reported that Kayne West was found in his home alive.

This sucks.
