Who Will Prince’s $300 Million Fortune Go To??

Prince’s Heir Remains A Mystery While the legendary pop/rock/r&b icon’s life is still being mourned and remembered by millions…the person who stands to make a major windfall by inheriting his $300 million fortune remains undetermined and foggy. Via Page Six : Prince left behind an estate worth upward of $300 million — but the lucky person who will inherit his vast wealth ­remains a mystery. Twice divorced, the icon had no surviving children, and it’s unclear if he even created a will before his death Thursday morning. “Hopefully, Prince executed a trust and indicated his intentions, both with respect to who his trustee would be and how he would want the estate to be disposed of,” celebrity attorney Dan Streisand told Reuters. “Prince was an incredibly smart person, he had great legal representation . . . so I would suspect that somebody along the way said, ‘Look, we’ve got to get you to execute some documents.’ ” One possible trustee could be Prince’s younger sister, Tyka Nelson, who arrived at his Paisley Park pad Friday with purple hair. “He loved you back,” she told the hundreds of fans who’d assembled around the fence that surrounds his estate. Wow. It will be interesting to see who comes out of the woodwork to try to claim these hundreds of millions that appear to be up for grabs at the moment… WENN Continue reading

Prince 911 Call: Disturbing Audio Released

Today, music legend and eccentric pop culture icon Prince died at age 57 . While police are still investigating the cause of his death, TMZ has obtained the audio recording of the 911 call made after he was found dead at his Paisley Park compound in his native Minnesota. In the emergency dispatch call, an operator is heard confirming a “male down, not breathing” at Prince's address. According to TMZ, the singer was found unconscious in an elevator in his home. Paramedics attempted CPR, but were unable to revive him. Prince was pronounced dead on the scene at 10:07 a.m., central time. Last week, after a concert in Atlanta, the singer was rushed to the hospital after his plane made an emergency landing in Illinois. Reps for Prince informed media he was battling a bad case of the flu, and that he had been treated and was back on the plane bound for home within three hours.  The “Purple Rain” megastar performed a concert the next day and assured fans he was fine. Now, fans are wondering if there may have been a deeper issue that the notoriously private celebrity was hiding. Some have speculated that he knew his death was pending, as he began penning his memoirs last month and made a eerie comment during a party at Paisley Park last weekend. “Wait a few days before you waste any prayers,” he told attendees.   Listen to the 911 call below:
