23 January 1976: One of my favourite albums is released Oh, you thought this column was written with objectivity? Hate to break it to you, but this column is written by a flesh and blood journalist. I know that sounds like an oxymoron. Regardless, that means that when a day comes around and it’s the anniversary of a release that I personally think is important, you’re damn right I’m gonna focus on it. On this day in 1976, David Bowie released the often overlooked dynamite of an album that is ‘Station to Station’. The early 70s had been good to Bowie. His first hit single ‘Space Oddity’ landed ...

A campaign has been launched by a UK museum to locate a missing dress once worn by David Bowie. Bosses of the Museum of London Docklands are appealing for help locating a number of iconic items of 20th-century clothing created by Jewish designers which have vanished over the years including the frock worn by Bowie on the UK cover of his 1970s album 'The Man Who Sold the World'. The dress was created by noted designer Michael Fish - who created the Mr Fish brand - and the museum's fashion curator Dr Lucie Whitmore says the Bowie costume would be "an absolute dream piece to find". Museum bosses ...

10 January 2016: David Bowie, English singer-songwriter and actor, died on this day. 2016 went down in many people’s memory as a year of tragic shifts. The UK voted to leave the EU. The US voted in Donald Trump as president, and a notable trend of beloved celebrities shifted off this mortal coil. But before any of that happened, the first star to pass may have been the brightest. Born David Robert Jones in 1947, Bowie would become one of the most iconic parts of the British music industry. It all kicked off with his 1969 single ‘Space Oddity’ released days before the Apollo 11 moon landing, it...

La exmodelo Iman, esposa del fallecido David Bowie, siempre se ha caracterizado por su hermetismo y su deseo de vivir lo más lejos posible de los focos, al menos desde que se casara con el ídolo de la música en el año 1992 y abandonara definitivamente el mundo de las pasarelas.

Su deseo era precisamente el de llevar una vida tan ...

Iman doesn't worry about ageing. The 67-year-old model - who was born in Mogadishu in Somalia - actually believes that the obsession with ageing is "a very Western mentality". She explained: "I come from Africa, we celebrate getting older. A friend was telling me there’s been a rise in cosmetic surgery, all because [people] have been looking at themselves in Zoom meetings. "I’m like, ‘If you are worried about that, just put the camera up [so it’s tilted down on your face], for God’s sake!'" By contrast, Iman insists that it's not something she's ever worried about. She told British Vogue magaz...

The public reaction was simply “too much,” Iman said. “We lived a very private life and suddenly it felt like there was a target on mine and my daughter’s head. It got to the point where we had to leave our home because the public were always at the front door – which I admire. I get it, but there was a point where it was like, ‘OK, go home now.’ “You had people who would take your picture, sell it and then come to...
