Prince was found dead on April 21, at age 57. Found dead In an elevator at his Paisley Park estate in Minnesota.

"I'd love to say that Prince himself did it in 1988 or something, instead of me in the bathroom this morning," she told the Washington Post before the dinner.

Mirren won her best actress Oscar for playing a monarch in 2006's "The Queen."

The hand drawn symbol is temporary, but the actress still wanted to honor the singer.

"I admire great artists, and he was a great artist," she said, according to The Posts Roxanne Roberts.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.
