Mary Anne Hobbs

This morning, Mary Anne Hobbs is gonna party like it’s Prince’s birthday… and that’s because it is! The Purple Rain star turns 56 today and, to celebrate, his collaborator Lianne La Havas is on the show.

Award-winning singer/songwriter La Havas, who hosted a Prince press conference in her living room, joins Mary Anne to reveal a little about this mysterious musical legend.

Plus, there will be more special guests in this three-hour purple-themed celebration, featuring Prince tracks, Prince covers, and Prince secrets.
