Prince is coming to "The Voice." No, he's not a secret contestant or even a guest judge. But he is the subject of a special medley that will be performed by the judges when the show debuts Feb. 5, right after the Super Bowl.

I saw the performance on tape and it's a fabulous jam starting with Christina Aguilera doing "1999," followed by Cee Lo Green's "Little Red Corvette," Adam Levine's "I Wanna Be Your Lover" and Blake Shelton's "Kiss."

Prince should be beaming with pride.
