Prince To Have Leno Residency

• 13th Mar 2009

Following U2's recent five night residency on David Letterman's 'Late Show' to plug their new album 'No Line On The Horizon', Prince has confirmed he will play three nights in a row on rival US TV show, 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno'.

The artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince will appear on the Leno show to promote the previously reported release of his two new albums 'LOtUSFLOW3R' and 'MPLSoUND' which, as also previously reported, will be released as part of a three CD set alongside the debut album from his new protégé Bria Valente. The album will be sold via Prince's website and, in the US, the Target retail chain from 29 Mar. We're not sure if the album will get a physical release over here just yet.

Prince is also expected to reappear on the 'Tonight Show' in May for what will be Jay Leno's last time fronting the talk show.
