Sinead O’Connor Posts Bizarre Prince Comment On Facebook

Sinead O’Connor has been absent from Facebook for almost a month after claiming that she was being spied on.
That ended on Monday afternoon at about 4 PM EDT when she made what appears to be an outlandish comment on the death of Prince.
The response from people on Facebook was swift and unrelenting, accusing her of just about everything under the sun and predicting a coming libel suit from those being named in the post.
Of course, O’Connor’s biggest and best known song was written by Prince, Nothing Compares 2 U, reaching number 1 in a majority of countries around the world.
That fact was the point of one of those on her page who said:
It has been quite awhile since we’ve heard any controversial talk from O’Connor but, it’s our guess, that this may be the start of a new round.
Update 5/2/16, 7:45 PM
A spokesman for Arsenio Hall has said that Sinead’s claims are “absolutely false, ridiculous and absurd”.
