We are really looking forward to this show for so many reasons. We knew Maya was funny and had the genes to be a singer (daughter of soul/jazz legend Minnie Riperton) and we love her take on Beyonce among other singers. But who knew she was such a Prince head, like us? Well, we will certainly be in the house and know this will draw an interesting crowd, if nothing else. This should be fun. See you there.

Here she is as “Princess” doing a cover of Darling Nikki in Los Angeles a while back:
