I'm definitely going to skip watching this... If that clip is anything to go by this is going to be a complete cringefest.

Change it one more time..

I don't know why everybody's getting so up in arms about it all. Just enjoy A tribute to our favorite artist. It's one of many I'm sure Any tribute is a complete honor. I think it's going to be awesome. Just think its surreal that Stevie and Madonna are actually doing a tribute to him. Still hard to believe this whole thing

I love Stevie loads and don't mind Madonna. That in itself is a bit of a mindblowing mix.

.

I'll reserve judgement.

Just what the world needs, another rendition of "Purple Rain". Prince recorded over 30 albums and the best they can do is "Purple Rain"? I'm so sick of that song. lol

I wasted 5 minutes of my life watching Lady Gaga's horrible tribute to my #2 favorite artist David Bowie (and I actually admire Gaga's vocal talent). But I don't want to waste 2 hours waiting through the Billboard Awards (which I would never normally watch) to suffer listening to those shakey vocals through Purple Rain. I'll come back after its done, and if enough people say she actually didnt sound as bad as that clip then I might watch it online afterwards.

Change it one more time..

Well, we know who's singing Purple Rain with Madonna, but what about the guitar? Could still have a special guest for the solo?

purple rain is his signature song from his signature era. it's his anthem, what made him famous. i'd have been shocked if it wasn't performed in a tribute to him.

i hope madge knocks it out of the park!

Yeah, it will be tough. But it might be even tougher to get through all the crap performers first. It wouuld be great if they opened the show with this so that all of us real fans could go to sleep right afterwards.

No. Just no. Prince deserves better. Not in terms of Stevie, but the lady that's with him.

That Britney opening was brutal. Based on the first break to commercial, seems like the Prince tribute will be much later in the show.

They will have the Prince Tribute as the very last act - that way they will entice us to sit through all these other acts

Madonna is the biggest name scheduled, so yeah I'd expect her to be toward the end of the show. Not sure if it will be the very last performance, but you could be right.

I'm so embarrassed for Madonna that I'm watching this on mute. Big up Questlove every time! They knew he'd pacify our angry a lil!

I think Questlove was flustered and emotional. Madonna looks really sad, I hope she makes it through. Why did she pick this song?

Beautiful, Loved and Blessed

Thank You Prince

Not feeling the Madonna/Stevie bit. Seems uninspired.
