I doubt it since Jermaine Paul is the winner of The Voice season 2 and AGT is now in that time slot...

I'm guessing that since Prince is in Australia on wis Welcome 2 Australia Tour that maybe, just maybe, the previous poster means The Voice on Australian TV, which is on Monday night!

I sincerely hope not after the serious butchering they did of Purple Rain and told the singers it was good! They not only tortured it then then took it out back shit it 15 times times backed up over it with a b double and then for triple measures ran ver it with a freight train!!!

If he was gonna do it it would have been last week with more shows to sell but with Melbourne on wednesday virtually a sell out and that being the last show no real point in doing so.

In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream

Would be cool if he does, but would kind of seem a bit redundant then given that the tour is almost finished. He should have done it last week in a bid to sell out the final 3 shows. Sydney wasn't sold out on Tuesday, and nor will Brisbane tonight from what I can see... Oh well, I'm sure they had good reason not to. He's never done a high profile performance piece on Australian TV. So many folks just don't know what they're missing sad

He gains pretty much nothing from an appearance now. Tour has wound down. Given his relatvely short attention span, his head has probably already left oz anyway. A vivid show would have been cool. So, one more show, possibly 2 with with Jannelle, and possibly 3 if Melboin's get lucky with an aftershow. If he did it just after the Ivy show it would have created a huge buzz and he may have had to add more shows.....more $$$ = 180*20000 anyone? Missed opportunity. I mean, where else can he charge so much for tickets and still manage to get around 120,000 people to attend in such short notice?

I stand corrected. If that's true he stands to gain quite a bit.
