He might have been cool but he was far from a good person.

One thing I give him is that he was on point with "I'm afraid of Americans."

There was an organization for underage groupies that brought underaged women backstage of his shows for decades, and he reportedly did have intercourse with at least a few of them. He was a pedophile.

The vast majority of rational actors, actually, you should probably seek therapy before you allow your unnatural urges to control you.

People across the USA constantly shame older men for dating women half their age and react with horror to learn that child marriage laws still exist in some parts of the USA.

The thing about "saying no" is that people below the age of 18 are not considered mentally competent adults and are incapable of giving consent. David Bowie was a serial rapist.

Michael Jackson never felt real so his death didn't change anything for me, and he was no Bowie

Both of them are idols for me: they were enigmatic musicians who defined themselves and loved by the world for doing it. They bucked against fashion trends. They spoke openly about their views.

I did drag for the first time that year because I didn’t want to be on my deathbed with regrets for not doing it. We raised money for kids with HIV. It was super fun.

I miss both of them.

"little is known about the exact amount of songs recorded, although a few figures have circulated in the press. This enormous unreleased catalog of songs was stored in a huge safe vault in Paisley Park Studios (In 2017, it was reported that tapes were moved from Paisley Park Studios to Los Angeles, California for cataloging, storage and digitization by archive company, Iron Mountain, on behalf of the company appointed to administer Prince’s Estate, Comerica Bank & Trust.)"

Anisocoria. His irises are the same colour but one is always dilated, making it appear darker.
