*In the latest issue of GQ, Matt Damon and his “Jason Bourne” co-star Julia Stiles recall the time the actor tried to make small talk with the late, great Prince…and was unsuccessful.

Julia Stiles: After The Bourne Ultimatum came out, there was a premiere in London. Prince actually came to it, then got tickets for the cast to come see him [perform]. We were summoned into a room to meet him [after the show]. Matt said, “So you live in Minnesota? I hear you live in Minnesota.”

Damon: Prince said, “I live inside my own heart, Matt Damon.”

It wasn’t clear if Matt Damon was being sarcastic, because who didn’t know that Prince lived in Minnesota; or if he was just nervously reaching for the easiest topic to chat about.

He didn’t Damonsplain any further.
