CBB Screens Bowie’s Ex-Wife’s Rection To Starman’s Death
It also means that David’s friends and family won’t be able to say goodbye to him at a funeral.
It has been reported that music legend David Bowie “has been secretly cremated in America without friends or family present”.
The singer died from liver cancer in NY just days after celebrating his 69th birthday.
Since news of his passing, Bowie’s back catalogue has experienced a phenomenal surge in United Kingdom downloads, with 14 of his albums occupying the iTunes top 20.
As an alien in The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) or scientist Nikola Tesla in The Prestige (2006), Bowie embraced the eccentric in films as well.
Lyrics in the haunting song include: “Look up here, I’m in heaven”.
Although “black stars” are usually found in the breast, and can show evidence that the radial scar they form around is benign, rather than cancerous, for many fans the discovery has significance with Bowie’s choice of album title.
David Bowie died from cancer on Sunday, aged 69.
Tony Visconti, who produced the album with Bowie, released a statement this week confirming Blackstar had been Bowie’s “parting gift”, and a direct acknowledgement of what was coming. Van Hove says Bowie told him about his illness during the early stages of working on the show, in November 2014, and asked him to keep the information secret.
During her time in the Celebrity Big Brother house, Angie has spoken to her housemates about their relationship and claimed she hadn’t seen her ex-husband in 40 years. “Like an oddball or a freak… his music was always inspiring but seeing him live set me off on a journey that for me I hope will never end”.
“I just really hope people are aware of what we’ve lost”.
Bowie will be honoured in a tribute at next month’s Brit awards, and a memorial concert will be held at New York’s Carnegie Hall on 31 March.
