The anti-cupid? Prince helped a man break up with his girlfriend during a live broadcast of The Arsenio Hall Show on Wednesday night
The stunt began with a long-haired man called Steven taking a seat next to the musician onstage.
He told the story of his relationship with a woman named Keegan, and she had cheated on him when he moved to Los Angeles and she remained in Portland, Oregon.
Prince was given the task of breaking the news to Keegan, and he did so over the phone.
'Listen, Steven’s a good guy, but I have a message for you, from him,' said Prince.
'Should I be nervous? she asked.
Having fun: Prince was game and passed on the message to the girl over the phone
'He's a good guy': Prince stood up for Steven, praising him for being 'a good guy'
'No, no, it’s a good message. In this
relationship, things are much harder than in the single world. Keegan,
in this life you’re on your own. Keegan, this is what it sounds like
when Steven breaks up with you.'
But Keegan didn't seem too phased, and asked Prince if he was available, to which he answered, 'no.'
Arsenio then chimed in, and said, 'I’ll tell you, if you’ve gotta have your man break up with you, this is a great way to have it happen.'

Prince also chatted with Arsenio during a sit-down interview.
He was asked by the talk show host what he would be doing 'if he weren't Prince.'
'When
I was 16, I was completely broke and needed to go get a job and I got
the Yellow Pages out and I couldn't find one thing that I wanted to do,'
he said. 'So I decided I was going to push as hard as I could to be a
musician and went at it.'
He then said later, 'I think I'd want to teach in some capacity. There's a lot of fine musicians in the group right now, and I'm learning from them. So as much as I'd like to teach, I like to learn.'
Off the market: When Keegan asked Prince if he was available, he said no
Prince performed three songs - a new on called FunkNRoll along with She's Always In My Hair and Mutiny.
His appearance gave the show a huge ratings boost, with a 56 percent spike of the show's February average, according to Variety.
It was announced last week that Arsenio's show will be renewed for a second season.

He is starting to look like Howard Stern. At first, I thought it was Stern wearing a wig.
