Famous people who have disappointed/Racist Bowie

[Drabarni]

I'm disappointed beyond belief, was a huge fan but no more.
Why do we find out after their death.
He was also a paedo, I hope they stop playing his music now.
Who has disappointed you?

My post is kind of pointless now.

Repeatedly stating that you are bi does not answer why you think Bowie's being gay "until his death, but people think he wasn't" is proof that he lacked good character.

Which family member told you he was racist - The Laughing Gnome?

Hahaha hehehe

Yes, but people said because he married a woman he couldn't be gay, and he was.

How do you know he was gay and not bi?

You've said categorically that he's gay. I don't think anybody on this thread has said he can't be gay because he had a wife.

They've said he was bi and that this is pretty common knowledge.

You're just being petulant instead of considering that maybe he was.

And you brought it up so can't snipe back to people with "it doesn't matter if someone is gay or not" when that's exactly why people called you out for bringing it up.

Very odd.

Yes, but people said because he married a woman he couldn't be gay, and he was

But why are you holding "what people said" and their (according to you) misunderstanding of his sexuality against Bowie himself?
And as has been pointed out to you, he was bi, not gay.

so nobody else disappointed in someone famous then? Ah is this really just lazy journo trawling?

Morrissey's said racist stuff for years. I'm sure he said something unpleasant about being black and getting on Top of the Pops, way back in the 80s. Now he's just a bitter old (racist) cunt. And that's how he'll be remembered once he pops his clogs.

You cannot compare him to Bowie.

Whilst I dont believe bowie was a racist, its ridiculous to say somebody cant be racist cos they have a black wife.

where has space and qatar and israel/liverpool now come from? confused

Just here to give you a OP. If you're going to claim things, then you need to back up those claims and cite your sources.

Or I could say that members of Bowie's family told me that they were only winding you up and that none of it is true. See, without providing the evidence, you can't tell me that that's not true. You can't prove it. And neither can I.

And I'm not a Bowie fan for the record. Always found his music a bit meh and didn't understand the hysteria over it, so I'm not here defending him.

so nobody else disappointed in someone famous then?

Yes, I'm terribly disappointed with Ghandi for being a racist misogynist and am going to completely disregard any context for these views and instead consider anything good that he might have done as an aberration because, of course, a person should be judged only on their worst behaviours.

Hardly 'news' - i'm always surprised at how many people worship him and ignore what he did wrong. Yes his songs were pretty great but that doesn't make any difference to what he did and actually i hear them in a different light now and often turn them off. As with Michael Jackson.

I had forgotten he'd died.

In that article she says she lost her virginity to Bowie at 15

As far as I can gather she is the only one who has alleged it. Given the way things have happened in recent years I would be fairly certain if he was into young girls more would have come forward by now. Or are we to believe he stopped at 1?

I'm sure his extended family, will be glad to hear they are all dead, they speak to me through the grave then.

Which family members?

Which family members?

5th cousin 4 times removed who must have the inside information direct from source

Im actually related to his drummer (woody) nothing to report though, ive never spoken to him in my life. We found his writing under some wallpaper once though

Assuming you're serious OP, it is always a capital mistake to confuse the artist with his or her art.

I'm disappointed in Bryan Ferry because his children seem to be massively entitled ultra right wing knobheads.

Bowie was openly bisexual, was he not? Fairly confident if he had in fact been gay, then he would have been just as open about that. The man strutted about in hot pants and knee high boots proclaiming himself to be an alien from another planet at one point. I really don’t get the impression he gave a fuck what people thought of him or his sexuality, to be honest.

Only one woman has ever come forward claiming he slept with her underage. One.

I've heard it on good authority (from the ghost of Charles Dickens' tobacconist's MIL) that Gaddafi once gave his gardener's brother's step-sister's brother in law a mint imperial. Other people say he was a murderous, terrorist, tyrannical cunt. I know which version I believe. ❤️ Gaddafi ❤️

I'm disappointed in Bryan Ferry

We're all disappointed with Bryan Ferry!

Im disappointed in Midge Ure for not looking how he did in 82 so I can longer fantasise about marrying him the bastard

He was not a paedophile. If he was anything he was a hebephile or an ephebophile. If you're going to make these assertions at least get the terminology right.
