Mars offered chance to play Prince in Netflix biopic
Nicki and Cardi’s rap battle in NY
A film insider tells me the singer has been approached about portraying the legend in a Netflix project.
Bruno, 32, is a huge Prince fan and gave an impressive tribute to the star when he performed Purple Rain at the 2017 Grammys.
