Triple M grabs live Prince chat

Triple M’s Melbourne breakfast show The Hot Breakfast have pulled off a near exclusive by getting rock star Prince to do a live radio interview.

The show – presented by  Eddie McGuire, Mick Molloy and Luke Darcy – got through the switchboard at the hotel where Prince is staying after being tipped off by one of his dancers on the pseudonym he was checked in as. They woke him up and bantered with him on air for around six minutes before he eventually hung up.

The musician is notoriously shy and almost never gives interviews.
