Crowds covered in purple from all over New York gathered in Brooklyn this afternoon for one epic outdoor celebration in honor of the late Prince’s upcoming June 7^th birthday. VIP guests such as hosts Spike Lee and Sway Calloway, actress Rosie Perez, and NBA stars John Salley and Cleanthony Early spent the day in the sun dancing to the music icon’s hits while staying cool sipping white goblets of Moët Ice, the first champagne designed to be served over ice, garnished with fresh fruit.
