      Is that in reference to Bowie’s coked out era where he declared Hitler the first rock star? Or am I missing something?

        Many people don’t know what his personal life was, only know his hits and impact on music and his popularity. I’ve experienced it and was happy to drop the bomb that he married an African woman and had children with her.

          To be fair, he kept his personal life away from the media as much as he could. Especially later in life. So there’s a decent chance many of them simply didn’t know him beyond the hits and headlines.
