Prince played a month of shows in London this year who they're obviously copying. But he's been actually working most of the past 25 years and always could perform 3-4(or more) hour long shows. And has enough material.
I'm not sure if Michael or Whitney could do a two hour show in their prime. In 2007 it would be a medical miracle if either lasted 30 minutes on stage.

Cocao Pebbles is a tasty tasty treat.

Yeah, and Prince is like a real musician. He could just play his guitar for an hour each night and it would be amazing.

I don't see Michael or Whitney being able to have near as good a month long show as Prince. Not even close.

@5: Prince actually set up camp in Vegas for quite a while before he did the month in London. That model seems to be working for these people with huge fanbases.

But yeah, Prince is an incredible musician with lots of stamina and a catalog that could be used to produce a week of great shows without repeating a song.

I like a lot of Michael's music, but it doesn't stand alone. It's hard to see him doing the sort of pyrotechnic state performance that he's famous for night after night without totally falling apart.

We'll see.
