Fox 411 story about Prince at Oscar party

From Fox411 online

Elton John Parties Like It's 1999

Yes, that was Prince at InStyle's Elton John AIDS Foundation party on Oscar night. And no, despite rumors that he would play with his band, Prince — ever capricious, whimsical and diminutive — passed on the chance to entertain the invited guests.

Had he done so, Prince might have found an interesting group in Sting, wife Trudie Styler, Sir Ben Kingsley with newish wife Alexandra, rocker Gavin DeGraw, new singer Joss Stone (who gave Elton's guests a hot 45-minute set earlier in the evening), plus Elton's companion David Furnish, Tim Allen, and newly svelte "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson, who told me that both Elton and Paul McCartney have agreed to appear on the show as celebrity judges next month.

Me, I'm still holding out for an all-classic soul night on "American Idol." I'd like to see the contestants handle "Soul Man," "When Something Is Wrong with My Baby" or "In the Midnight Hour."

Kingsley — who likes to be called Sir Ben, by the way — told me he has five movies lined up, one after another.

"I'll be working straight through until 2007," he said, with directors like Ridley Scott and Jonathan Frakes, the latter on the highly anticipated "Thunderbirds."
"If a man is considered guilty for what goes on in his mind, than give me the electric chair for all my future crimes"
