Oh dammit NO! I hope it's something simple and fixable!

Oh FFS, I was only just talking about the recent spate of celeb deaths and I said Prince would be one that would hurt the most.

Hope he's ok, for my sake as much as his!

It's the flu and he's already been discharged. He was in the town where I spent the first 34 years of my life.

I'm not a fan. I like a few things, but that's it.

I was supposed to see his show in Atlanta last week and he cancelled due to the flu. When they rescheduled it for yesterday, I couldn't go (boo hiss!!!) but I remember thinking that a week out from the flu was probably not enough time to fully recover, so this doesn't surprise me. All reports from my friends that went said the shows were fantastic.

Hope he's on the mend soon!
