Emma Roberts has a special souvenir from her first Prince concert - she keeps the singer's guitar pick as a good luck charm.
 
The actress, 18, saw her R&B idol performing live on U.S. TV's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in 2008 and managed to beat the crowd to grab a pick the superstar had thrown into the audience.
 
And now the guitar accessory takes pride of place in Roberts' home.
 
She explains, "I was in New York once and I saw him walking through a hotel at like two in the morning and that was pretty exciting.

"This was the first time I saw him perform and I actually have his guitar pick that he performed with because he kind of threw it in that Prince manner that you would throw a guitar pick when you're done playing, and it landed on the floor and no one saw it, so I went and I picked it up.

"Now I have it as a good luck charm."
