Eins og kunnugt er fannst tónlistarmaðurinn Prince látinn á heimili sínu í morgun. Fjölmargir hafa minnst hans á samfélagsmiðlum og er fræga fólkið engin undantekning. Missy Elliott, Barack Obama Bandaríkjaforseti, Billy Idol og Niles Rodgers eru aðeins nokkrir sem hafa notað Twitter til að minnast goðsagnarinnar.

Listinn yfir þá tónlistarmenn sem voru undir áhrifum Prince er gríðarlega langur og er ljóst að missirinn er mikill fyrir tónlistarlíf um allan heim.
