Prince is a purple pain
FORMER superstar PRINCE needs a reality check.

Forget The Artist Formerly Known As — I’m now calling him The Artist Formerly Known.

The tiny singer arrived in London yesterday for The Brits amid massive secrecy — still labouring under the illusion that anyone cares about him.

Prince has flown in to possibly play at tomorrow night’s big event at Earls Court — if he fancies it, that is. Organisers are still waiting to hear if he’ll lower himself to perform.

They’ve had to leave a blank space in the running order while they wait for his decision.

Everyone else — including KANYE WEST, COLDPLAY and JAMES BLUNT — has been preparing their sets for weeks.

I’m amazed Brits bosses are willing to jump through hoops for him.

Of course 1984’s Purple Rain was genius but Prince’s big head now overshadows any talent he once had.

His last hit was a re-release of 1999 — back in 1999. Before that he got to No33 with Purple Medley in 1995.

Prince has always been full of himself but yesterday’s antics reached new levels of arrogance.

The musical midget flew into Heathrow and insisted on having decoy cars driving off to throw the fans off the trail.

The trouble was, I’m not aware of anyone turning up to see him.

The driver of his actual car was ordered not to look at him in the rear-view mirror — because it would make the pretentious Prince feel uncomfortable.

He also had various hotels on stand-by so he could avoid these imaginary fans he believed would be screaming for his autograph.

A source told me: “Prince had rooms booked at The Metropolitan Hotel, The Royal Garden in Kensington and The Dorchester.

“He had a greeting party waiting at The Royal Garden at 3.30pm — the hotel pulled out all the stops.

“He planned to sweep into a car park and wait there until the paparazzi had gone away.

“But there were no photographers waiting at all.

“He then got cold feet and made a last-minute decision to go to The Dorchester.

“He messed a lot of people around. I don’t know who he thinks he is.”

Just in case you do fancy a sighting of Prince — he’s the little bloke staying at The Dorchester and acting like royalty.

I thought someone already posted this?

Yeah, they have
