Did iTunes Goof Reveal Prince As Secret Live Earth Performer?

So, the iTunes homepage is now featuring this nifty little Live Earth playlist packed with a hot track from every artist on the bill according to the accompanying blurb. In addition to songs from Madonna and the Chili Peppers, curiously, Purple Rain is track four. The funny part? Prince hasn’t been announced for the event. Our theory: Organizers have mistakenly leaked one of their surprise headliners. The singer, whose album Planet Earth comes out July 24, would add a little oomph to the New York lineup, which includes The Police and Kanye West, but kinda drops off after that.

wasn't there a comment from 3121.com awhile back when the 7/7/7 show was announced that it was part of a 24 hour event?

yeah, but i thought it meant it was part of a princey-planned 24 hour event, with macys and other "surprises" in MPLS and online, etc., happening that day. but i also assumed there'd be some kind of live earth tie-in as well. shrug

seems weird to put on a live show in a major venue on that date and not at least be added in as part of the bill. but, u no prionce shrug

they'll probably just do a satellite feed into the live broadcast just like they did back with LIVE AID when they showed his pre-taped "4 the tears in your eyes". Since the networks are covering it, they'll probably cut away to a Prince performance for a song or two at the minnie venue. Since the whole Planet Earth concert is going to be jumping around all day with networks airing different parts of every show.

i'm guessing if prince is going to do a "surprise" telecast performance for live earth, it's gonna be something special. even if they're just showing him do the let's go crazy medley, it'll be exciting for me to know it's being simulcast to where my ma will get to watch for a while from home at the same time! touched
