The death of music icon Prince sent shockwaves through the world on Thursday, and many fans took to their social media accounts to pay tribute to the icon.

Hours after Prince's passing, late night TV managed to remember the late singer, who passed away at the age of 57. Stephen Colbert, James Corden, Jimmy Kimmel and Trevor Noah all took time out of their Thursday night shows to remember Prince and the profound affect that the musician had on all of their lives.

On "The Late Show," Colbert took a moment after his monologue to turn his entire studio purple in honor of Prince. The host talked about how he first discovered the musician when he was in high school. Colbert called himself "just a fan" of Prince and turned over "The Late Show" tribute to his bandleader, Jon Batiste, who, along with several members of Colbert's houseband, Stay Human, had the opportunity to actually work with Prince before he passed.

"He had a huge aura," Batiste said. "His energy and presence in a room, just kind of filled everybody's hearts."

The Prince tribute did not stop there on "The Late Show," Colbert and both of his guests, Tom Hanks and "Hamilton" star Leslie Odom, Jr. both shared their own memories of the singer.

On "The Late Late Show," host Corden had already completed his interview with the stars of "The Huntsman: Winter's War," Jessica Chastain, Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron, when he heard the news that Prince had died at his Minnesota recording studio. Corden got very emotional during his tribute and said he didn't even "know where to start when I talk about Prince as an artist, because to be unique in this world is impossible."

"What a thing to have been alive when Prince was making music. We are all incredibly lucky. We will miss you Prince," Corden said. "You are truly one of a kind."

The British host ended his eulogy of the late singer by quoting some of the lyrics from Prince's song "Sometimes in Snows in April" and said, "Sometimes I wish life was never-ending, but all good things they say, never last."

Noah, the host of Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," dedicated the show's "Daily Zen" to the singer at the end of the show.

"Today, as you all know, we lost more than just a man. We lost an icon. We lost a leader. We lost in many aspects a genre in itself. Prince, we'll always remember. We will always love you. Your music changed our lives and I think it will continue to do that," Noah said. "Today we would like to dedicate our Zen to you."

The show then ended with a clip of Prince performing an acoustic version of his song "Reflection" from an episode of "MTV Unplugged."

Kimmel took a little bit of a lighter approach in the way "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" remembered Prince and made fun of CNN host Wolf Blitzer's tribute to Prince for saying "Purple Haze" instead of "Purple Rain."

Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers and Conan O'Brien were all on hiatus.
