Sheila E. on Prince's use of pain medication

Larry King NowJul 25 '16

Famed drummer Sheila E. talks with Larry King about Prince's cause of death, which was officially classified as an accidental overdose of the painkiller fentanyl. In particular, Sheila reveals whether or not she had ever seen Prince use or abuse pain medication.


Larry King: Did you know about him taking medication for pain?

Sheila E.: Not necessarily, I’ve never even seen him take an aspirin or a tylenol, I’ve never seen him take anything, you know. I know that he was in pain because I’m in pain half the time. You know, I've got injuries, I've fallen on stage, there's times where, you know, some of the pieces of the set have fallen on my head, hit my arm, yeah. I was always getting hurt and so was he. I mean just think about it, if you look at him jumping from one riser to another like this in those heels, I don't even know how he did it. And then in the splits and turning, yeah.
