He also has a separate trademark for candles and candle accessories.

Meanwhile, Lionel Richie also paid tribute to Prince and Micheal Jackson, Wednesday (April, 27).

While performing during the opening night of his Las Vegas residency at Axis at Planet Hollywood, the 66-year-old singer rolled out several songs including the hit song ‘We are the World’, which he collaborated with Micheal on.

He said: “We lost them way too soon. Prince’s talent was best in the world. I’d find myself writing harder just to keep up with his genius, and I thought mine was pretty good”.
