PRINCE WRAPS UP LONDON SHOWS

Prince will tonight perform the last concert of his 21-day stint at London's O2 Arena, with two songs broadcast live on TV.

The legendary pop star has taken legal action to ensure no footage from his concerts appear on the internet and has banned video filming of the gigs.

But he will tonight allow Sky News to exclusively broadcast two of his songs.

He is reported not to be charging Sky to show the footage, which will go on air between 20:30 BST and 21:00 BST.

Prince has a history of using innovative methods to deliver his music to his fans, having allowed the Mail on Sunday to give away copies of his latest album, Planet Earth, in July.

His marathon set of gigs in the Docklands has also been a first – the longest residency ever at what used to be the Millennium Dome in Greenwich.

He also kept tickets for the gigs at the relatively low price of £31.21.

The 48-year-old surprised guests at London Fashion Week earlier this week after performing his track U Got The Look during the Matthew Williamson show.

The musician appeared at first to be simply joining members of the fashion elite in the front row for the show but then his hit was played and the two models walking down the runway began to dance.

Prince then started singing from his seat before jumping up on to the catwalk to the rapturous delight of the show's invited guests.
