I was so mad I wasn't sitting at the stadium watching it [Prince' 2007 Super Bowl performance] in person. So when Prince came back to the box where I would have been after he performed, he said to my makeup artist, "Where's Stevie?"

He was not happy that I wasn't there, and now today I'm not happy about it because I should have gone and I should have walked in that mud for him.

I've always been a Pretenders fan... I'm very excited about this.
