Can any ONE command as much as the Royal One?

If rumors are to be believed, Prince is getting about $4.8 million for his appearance at Coachella.

Can any other single performer command this same fee? Or greater?

When it comes to bands, I think the Stones could get mucho bucks. Led Zep could write their own number.

But -- could any other single performer get as much as Prince? Maybe Bruce Springsteen? But probaly not.

I can't imagine that the solo "superstars" like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Mariah, Elton, could get more.

Probably not! If Jimmy Hendrix was alive he'd be up there..As for Prince he's at the top of the list when it comes to real talented pop stars at the present...

Yeah, someone should shell out that kind of cash to see someone come back from the dead.
