Biblical figure Salomon who has many wives by his side has inspired Prince to take advice from him.
Prince's hero is King Solomon - because he had a thousand wives. The flamboyant musician, who is a Jehovah's Witness, admires the Biblical figure because of his enormous number of lovers.
Prince - who is renowned for his sexually explicit lyrics and penchant for the opposite sex - said in an interview with Giant magazine: "The Bible is like the guidebook to help men and women with their sins. If I'm going to get some advice, wouldn't I want it from Solomon? That man had a thousand wives. I mean, I want to talk to the guy who had a thousand women!"
The 49-year-old singer also revealed he is considering writing a symphony for his next album. Prince - who over the course of his 29-year career has released almost 40 albums - said: "I might try a symphony, I might try composing something with flutes. At this age, it starts to more be about what the gift is and then what your role is."
The 'Purple Rain' singer - who is currently in the middle of a 21-night residency at London's The 02 Arena - sparked controversy last month when he gave away his latest LP 'Planet Earth' for free. The record was distributed with Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper and is also handed out to everyone who attends his concerts.
