Is Prince coming to Atlanta; Toni Braxton can start back ballin'. 

By Art Terrell

Could Prince be headed to the ATL? Nobody but Prince knows what's up with the rest of the L.A. shows so ATL could be in the realm of possibilities. Keep your fingers crossed on this one.

What’s up with the rest of Prince’s scheduled shows in Los Angeles? Apparently, even organizers at Live Nation are in the dark.

With four concerts already in the can, there’s been no word on when or where the remaining 17 shows in his announced 21-night stand will take place, according to Billboard.

“Everything comes from Prince,” says Mark Campana, co-president of North America concerts for Live Nation.

Prince’s current leg began on April 14 at the Forum; his most recent show was at the storied arena on Saturday.

“He has not discussed anything beyond L.A., and L.A. was decided literally as the trucks were leaving the Carolinas (at the end of March),” Campana says. “The drivers needed to know what direction to go and Prince said, ‘head west.’ By the time they were halfway across the country, they were told to go to Los Angeles and we were announcing the shows and putting them on sale for the Forum. So spontaneity is in play on all levels. We’re all waiting with bated breath as to where’s he going after Los Angeles.”

Campana expected the rest of the L.A. shows to be played at the Forum, but then again … “We are taking direction, not giving direction,” he said.

Toni Braxton can start back ballin'.

Toni Braxton has taken another step in getting her financial house in order by completing a court-ordered course on money management.

The singer, currently appearing with her sisters and mom in the We TV series “Braxton Family Values,” filed for bankruptcy for a second time last year amid allegations her debts ballooned to between $10 million and $50 million.

She was ordered to take a course about money matters as part of her case — and she passed the class on April 15th, according to TMZ.

Braxton’s certificate, obtained by TMZ.com, reveals she completed an “internet instruction course concerning personal financial management.”

The singer-turned-reality star, who previously filed for bankruptcy in 1998, has blamed her cash flow issues on the cancellation of a series of Las Vegas shows, which were scrapped due to her heart problems.
