Two women admit to having had flings with David Bowie when they were just 14 and 15-years-old but insist it wasn't sexual abuse
David Bowie is the Starman who flew down from heaven, gave us some awe-inspiring music, and then left us feeling empty when he died in January 2016. GQ Editor Dylan Jones, the author of one of the many books written about the musical genius, even said that Bowie is a "continually expanding balloon that refuses to burst". The idea, then, is established that Bowie was one-of-a-kind. That's why when comedian David Baddiel spoke of a middle-aged Bowie as a man who seduced teenage groupies on his podcast, it left the listener with a jarring sensation.
Baddiel said in the January 28 podcast that he had been told of a story by one of his female friends of an alleged "romance" with the singer and Rolling Stone frontman Mick Jagger while they were on holiday in Mustique, a private island in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. He said: "This woman was 16 at the time and Bowie would have been in his 40s."
