I put on a disco, and Iman brought a mirrored ball down with her, an electric one. The rest is anything but silence; it’s been very loud indeed.

He sculpts and paints, though he never paints on Mustique because, he says, “the light frightens me. The Writer’s cottage is a self-contained haven for those who want to follow in the footsteps of Kings. Star Trek 39. He brought to rock his own theater of the absurd with a succession of extremely dramatic personae—Major Tom, the androgynous Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, the Mephistophelian Thin White Duke.

Bowie has called himself an entertainer, not a musician. But of course. ‘Let’s get the Rolling Stones! Have you ever been to Indonesia?’ He’d had a romp through there, so he knew what I was talking about.
She’d quit modeling to endeavor to create a new career for herself, acting, a very brave thing to do.
