MIDTOWN— Let this be a lesson to all reality TV stars who find themselves face-to-face with music royalty: When Prince says dance, you dance.

Prince booted a bashful Kim Kardashian off the stage during his sold-out show at Madison Square Garden Monday after she refused to dance with him.

"Get off the stage!" Prince said to Kardashian as he waved her away.

"Welcome to America," he said afterwards.

An audience member posted video footage of the interaction to YouTube Tuesday.

"I was so nervous I froze when Prince touched me!!!!" Kardashian posted on Twitter.

Apparently, she went back on stage later in the show for a second chance.

"Went up on stage AGAIN!" the reality star tweeted. "This time I redeemed myself! We all danced while Prince played the piano! Wow! What a night!"

Kardashian, star of E!'s "Keeping up With the Kardashians", opened up a SoHo boutique with her sister, Kourtney Kardashian, last year.

Questlove, drummer for The Roots and "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," also snapped a photo of the on-stage diss.

"Prince calls for Kim to dance...kicks her offstage for lack of knowhow," Questlove tweeted.
