Prince’sNew Girlcameo almost got killed by Kardashian feud, and here’s why
Remember that epicPrincecameo onNew Girlthat skyrocketed ratings? Turns out, it almost didn’t happen, and the reason is literally shocking. Buckle up, because this story involves reality TV royalty getting royally dissed!
It’s no surprise that the late pop icon had a strong distaste for the Kardashians. During the 2011 Welcome 2 Tour performance, he even refused to perform with Kim K andkicked her off stage.New GirlstarZooey Deschanelspilled the tea on Monday’s episode ofConanabout the sitcom’s behind-the-scenes drama.
Apparently, Prince had a very specific rider for his guest spot: absolutely no Kardashians and no stars of their TV showKeeping Up With The Kardashians.Deschanel revealed (viaNME):
It turns out that someone from Prince’s camp said ‘Who are the celebrities? I hope it’s not a Kardashian’. It’s really sad because Khloe Kardashian and Kris Jenner had very kindly come in and shot [a] scene… I felt so bad because everyone had gone out of their way to be there on that day, but Prince was running the show.
This came after the show had already filmed a scene withKhloe KardashianandKris Jenner. Here’s the kicker: to appease thePurple Rainsinger, the producers burned everything that showed the Kardashians were there, including scripts, video, and other evidence.

The drama, thankfully, didn’t scare Prince away. His appearance and performance made the cameo great, and theepisode got 26M viewers, which is a huge increase from the normal 3–4M. Although Prince wasn’t a fan of the Kardashians, this does show that even Hollywood A-listers have to bend the knee (or, in this case, ditch the reality TV crew) from time to time.
