I Just Found Out That Prince's Favorite Color Wasn't Even Purple And Now I Need To Be Comforted

But, what color is rain now??

Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'mma let you finish, but Prince was one of the greatest artists of all time! One of the best artists of all time!

While I enjoy all of the hits, including "I Wanna Be Your Lover," "1999," "Kiss," and "When Doves Cry," there's one song that's just a little more iconic than all the rest.

Hint: It's "Purple Rain."

Which was also a rock musical and album, in case you were wondering.

Ever since its release, Prince has been associated with the color purple, because DUH.

I mean, what color is his suit? Purple. What about his guitar? Oh yeah, purple. The stage? PURPLE.

Just try to tell me something different. I dare you.

Well fam, it looks like the joke is on us and that everyone everywhere was apparently WRONG.

In a recent interview with The Evening Standard, Prince's sister Tyka Nelson revealed that purple wasn't Prince's favorite color at all!

Alright, moment of truth. Nelson said, "The stand out piece [of his collection] for me is his orange Cloud guitar. It is strange because people always associate the color purple with Prince, but his favorite color was actually orange.”

I don't care what you say, "Orange Rain" does not have as good a ring to it.
