Major Tom And His Missus Not Getting Spaced Out

The article from The Observer, October 8th. Penned by Oliver Marre, pooh-poohed by David Bowie.

Rumours and lies, and stories they made up...Part 386

When I spied the above story in the Observer on Sunday, it didn't seem quite right to me, so I ran it past DB and he confirmed my suspicions thus:

"This must be Branson going for some cheap PR. And how cheap can you get. It's Total Tosh, of course."

It seems that there were very few MB posters who believed a word of the story either, but just to make sure, DB reiterated there too: "What bollox, not true of course."

I thought it worth posting his denial here, as I have already had a couple of people outside of BowieNet asking me if it's true that David and Iman are spending £230,000 on this trip into space.

As David says, it's not true ...and so it gives me great pleasure to be able to declare the Observer piece, Officially "Total Tosh"!
