Prince Sued Over Book Deal Gone Bad

No one ever called Prince an angel -- especially when it comes to his money. According to TMZ.com, a literary agency filed a lawsuit against The Purple One in Los Angeles Superior Court because of the skulduggery he displayed in their business dealings.

According to court papers, Prince chose the agency to be his "exclusive agent with respect to the negotiations of a publishing deal" for a book called 21 Nights and a special limited edition version. However, in the final stages of the deal, Prince stopped calling them back and went behind their back to finish the negotiations.

The agency is taking Prince to court to get the 15 percent he screwed them out of -- which roughly amounts to about 200-thousand dollars.

Prince's Party Pooped -- Big Time!

We told you all about the exclusive and elaborate post-Oscars party that Prince was supposedly throwing on Sunday evening. Well, if you didn't make it, sources are saying that you didn't really miss much. Apparently His Purpleness decided at the last minute to move the shindig from his house to Club Avalon in Los Angeles. Not only could anyone get in -- provided they could pay a hundred bucks at the door -- one insider said that there was no open bar -- not even in VIP.

Prince Party in Possible Limbo

When it comes to Oscar after-parties, apparently Los Angeles isn't big enough to handle two -- at least as far as Prince is concerned. We told you last week that His Purpleness was holding a soiree at his house after tonight's big event. However, if MSNBC's The Scoop is to be believed, his decision is contingent upon whether Madonna throws one.

Last year, Prince's party was second only to Vanity Fair's post party in exclusivity. While the plans are still in place for this year's affair, a source close to the planning was quoted as saying, "It will literally be decided at the last minute. If [Madonna] has a party, he just won’t do it." Stay tuned...

***UPDATE***
I guess Madonna decided to forgo the pleasure of her own party because Entertainment Tonight has released more details about Prince's super secret post-Oscars soiree . It was originally reported that the festivities were going to be at his house. However, that's apparently is not the case. While several VIPs have already RSVPd, the actual location is very much on the hush. We'll keep you updated on this story...

Partying with Prince Takes Patience

E! Online is reporting that Prince will be holding his annual ultra-exclusive Academy Awards after party at his home in Los Angeles, and he’ll be performing. Of course, guests have to be prepared to stick it out for the long haul if they want to be rewarded with his musical musings. Last year’s soiree, which included Stevie Wonder and John Legend, didn’t get started until 1:30am.
