(Radio.com) Prince earned a number of nicknames through his decades of superstardom, but "The Purple One" really stuck: Purple Rain was such a career-defining career moment that his fans forever see Prince through purple-colored glasses.

Discussing an upcoming memorabilia auction with London's Evening Standard newspaper, Nelson dropped the surprising piece of Prince intel.

"It is strange because people always associate the color purple with Prince, but his favorite color was actually orange." Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. |
