Sheila has been touring on and off for several years promoting Icon, her book, etc. The tickets are usually pretty cheap and in smaller venues. For her to mention that she will be doing some Prince songs in tribute is hardly a money grab. Do you want these artists he has worked with to become silent about him and act like they had no connection, while other artists who had no connection with him are out there doing his songs too? She is keeping his legacy alive and his family doesn't seem to have an issue with what she's doing.

I'm referring to the love symbol t-shirts, cruises, etc. There's no shame in making money, but don't suddenly try to make it seem, like some on here are doing, that Sheila is donating to charity everything that she has made since Prince's passing. That is simply not true.

The cruise was announced before Prince's death.

The cruise was announced before Prince's death.

Previously, it was a tribute to Michael Jackson.

She is still honoring Michael too on this cruise.
