Prince's age on american bandstand

ok at the start of the video it says 'january 26th 1980' but when dick clark asks him how old he is, he says '19' but wouldn't he have been 22?
unless they put the wrong date on there cos its a proper 1970's looking video lol

I remember reading somewhere that in the beginning of his career WB wanted to market him as a few yrs younger to make him seem that much more unbelievably talented because he could sing, write, and play 26 instruments.

High school graduate vs. Working for the man for a couple of years and playing gigs on the street to make ends meet I guess shrug
