Los Angeles:
Musician Prince is all set to be honoured with Icon Award at this year's Billboard Music Awards, joining Stevie Wonder and Neil Diamond.

Prince, 54, will mark the occasion with a rare live televised performance on the show, which will be produced by Don Mischer.
The legendary musician will become only the third artiste to be honoured with the award, joining inaugural winner Neil Diamond (2011) and last year's recipient Stevie Wonder.
