Confusion arose in Celebrity Big Brother when contestants mistakenly assumed that their fellow housemate David Gest had passed away after being informed of David Bowie’s death.

David Bowie was a music icon that influenced many, even right here in the Red River Valley.

Lazarus was released on Bowie’s 69th birthday just two days before his death.

Ms Cook said people attending the screening are more than welcome to dress up as Bowie or their favourite “Labyrinth” character.

Meanwhile, friends of the singer are continuing to express their grief, with Sir Elton John sharing a picture of a young Bowie on his Instagram page, with the caption: “I am still in shock”.

Several other Bowie albums suddenly appeared or re-entered near the top of the iTunes charts including “Nothing Has Changed”, his career-spanning hits collection released in 2014. “As a teenager growing up in Suburbia, I was very much the odd one out and Bowie was the light at the end of a very grey tunnel”, he wrote for DailyMail.com. “He said that because he knew that he may not always be able to be around”, Hove told NOS.nl station.

The two were married for 10 years and had one child together, son Duncan Jones. “And I realised that it might be the last time I saw him”, said Van Hove.

Blackstar and Lazarus – both from the Ziggy Stardust star’s latest album which was only launched last week – also made it into the top five, which was completed by classic Life on Mars. I knew for a year that this was the way it would be.

Rough Trade, the taste-making British store that also runs New York’s largest record shop, said it would donate all proceeds from sales of Bowie’s work in January to cancer research. He will always be with us. It ended with this sentence: “Thank you for our good times, Brian. I realise now he was saying goodbye”.
