Prince had no plans of throwing a party during the Oscars until he received an RSVP from the Academy Award winning French actress Marion Cotillard, following rumors in the media that he was to have “the Oscar bash of the century.”
When the “Purple One” got word that Cotillard, last year’s winner for Best Actress at the Academy Awards, wanted to attend his then-fictional bash, he decided to throw the party after the Oscars this Sunday and film it for all to see on his new website LotusFlow3r.com, Us Weekly reports.
Prince’s new website has been live for a while now, but there have been very few updates, aside from some cryptic promo pictures and a sampling of songs from his 3 forthcoming albums. His Oscar party telecast, though there is no word on whether it will be live or released after the event, will be the public’s first glimpse into his site’s new role as a portal for the release of his first recordings without a record label.
