Fans have been left scratching their heads after Prince mysteriously vanished from social media.
The Breakdown singer has deleted a @3rdEyeGirl Twitter band account that was launched in 2013, his Instagram account and has also got rid of most of the videos from his official YouTube channel. Just a couple of clips remain, including videos of the 2013 song Breakfast Can Wait.
The Facebook page the 56-year-old set up just a few weeks ago has also disappeared – with no word as to why.
Prince’s representatives have apparently declined to comment on why the star has left social media.
Prince has previously suggested he wasn’t too comfortable with the online world, talking about how he didn’t like making his music available online and once declaring: “The internet is completely over.”
Then last month he took part in what was billed as “an exclusive Q&A” session on Facebook – where he answered just one question about sound frequencies.
His sudden disappearance has left Twitter fans baffled.
