Having been extremely bummed for the last two days, I can't stop laughing at this. It's celebrity Big Brother contestant Angie Bowie telling Tiffany "New York" Pollard that "David is dead" and Tiffany freaking out because she thought Angie was referring to housemate David Gest. I'm listening to Miracle Goodnight right now. I know it's from his uncool era, but it was on the radio when I was 14 so I have fond memories.

I think I'm sorry that Davie BOWIE isn't here to hear about this; I hope he'd appreciate it. Maybe not, since Angie was such a relentless, negative famewhore for the last few decades. Anyway, who else but New York, when Angie BOWIE says "David died" thinks she means David Gest.

Funny stuff like this is why reality tv won't die! You can't make this stuff up.

Yeah, thank you New York for making Americans look even more stupid to the Brits.

Hey, those Brits invented Celebrity Big Brother and supplied a long list of home-grown pieces of trash to appear on it, so they've got no reason to feel superior. I actually think if I were New York I would have thought "David" referred to the housemate they were currently living with and not Angie's ex-husband from 35 years ago whom none of them had ever met. My favorite part is New York thinking David Gest dropped dead of cancer in the other room without any warning whatsoever.

Oh that was cringe inducing! I feel for Angie because famewhore that she is, I'm sure there's still feelings for her ex (and they have a kid together if I'm remembering right) But she should have known not to go to New York with her sorrows, good gravy.
Has Angie Bowie ever done anything besides be David's ex? I remember her going on Howard Stern and telling the world that she caught David in bed with Mick Jagger. Which- maybe that happened- maybe it didn't. Part of me loves the idea of future generations watching the video for 'Dancing in the Streets' and saying 'You see those two! They totally did it!!!' the way folks today gush over the tantalizing possibility that Walt Whitman and Oscar Wilde probably had at least one wild night together. (And again, maybe they did- maybe they didn't)
But aside from fueling rumors about her ex and Mick Jagger... and now confusing poor clueless New York into hysterics- has Angie Bowie ever done anything beyond be crazy and be David's ex?

I think Angie has another child, a daughter, who also doesn't speak to her. She seems personality disordered.
And now I want to see Walt Whitman and Oscar Wilde dueting in Dancing in the Street. We used to call my mom whenever that video was on because it just made her laugh and laugh. But with her arms and legs crossed defensively; she was not a fan.
A woman in Italy has started a petition to god to make David Bowie not dead. Interesting concept, but there was a human behind all the masks and alien imagery. He's been quietly cremated in New York.

Last I heard, Angie's daughter speaks to her, but I'm sure the girl's upbringing was toxic and her life is probably a mess. A few years ago, she reported that she was beaten up and raped by a drug dealer. Per her mother's instruction, she told every press outlet that would listen about it, identifying herself as David Bowie's step-daughter, which she isn't. Subsequently she sued and received a settlement from the Staten Island police department, claiming they'd had her pose for lewd photos as part of their investigation.
As for Angie and David's son, he hasn't spoken to Angie in over 30 years. He doesn't talk about her much, but he did say recently that he decided when he was 13 that she was not a healthy influence on his life, and as an adult, he believes that decision was correct. It's kind of a Courtney Love/Frances Bean situation where every time he tries to be nice and write her a letter, she runs to the Daily Mail to tell them all about it and weep about how David poisoned their son against her...

They might have sleep slept together; or passed out after a bunch of drugs. I don't think either of them has confirmed or denied it either way.
