Actress Taraji P. Henson showed some love to singer Esperenza Spaulding at Prince’s “The Purple Party” For LotusFlow3r.com in Hollywood last night following the Oscars. LotusFlow3r.com is a new website named for one of the three albums Prince will supposedly release this year.

At Prince’s party, Taraji was joined on the sofa by playwright/director Tyler Perry, singer Alicia Keys and her mother. If Tyler was a nice guy (he’s only nice if you’re “somebody”) — I would mention the fact that his movie “Madea Goes to Jail” topped the box office this weekend with an impressive $41 million, making this the biggest opening weekend for the “Madea” series and for the film’s distributor. But since Tyler is not a nice guy — I won’t bother to mention any of that.

Actress Meagan Goode was on the guest list at Prince’s party, but she showed up fashionably late as she always does. Still, Meagan wasn’t as bad as Prince, who finally arrived around 4:45 a.m. eastern time. At least he performed, which must have been some treat for his hand-picked guests.
