Quote: DaButt @ 22nd April 2016, 3:48 PM BSTTMZ are reporting that Prince was treated for an overdose a few days ago. He was famously not a user of drugs or alcohol, but I wonder if he managed to acquire a painkiller addiction or something. I guess the autopsy will get to the bottom of it.
I was thinking the same. I don't think he was the typical drug taking rock n roll hedonist. He was too much of a control freak for that sort of thing. But I've read a few years ago that he was suffering from serious hip/knee/joints problems after years of dancing (and wearing high heels?). Maybe you're right and he has been taking strong painkillers because of that.
