Though Prince is forging his own path, he hasn’t forgotten his roots. When Entertainment Tonight’s Brooke Anderson said in a preview clip that she thought he was “so much wiser” than his peers, Prince paid tribute to his late father Michael Jackson.

“That was all thanks to my dad. He raised me right,” he said.

Brooke also gave the newbie reporter a few tips. The preview shows the two doing push-ups together to calm any nerves he may be having.

“If you’re relaxed, they’re gonna be relaxed, and they may give you something you didn’t expect they’d do,” she told him.

Prince also shared that rather than follow in his father’s musical footsteps, he’d like to get into the film industry and become “well-rounded as a producer, director, screenwriter and actor.”

Ambitious goals for such a young kid! 

We wish Prince the best of luck with his Entertainment Tonight segment!
