David Bowie voted greatest entertainer of 20th century by BBC poll, Alan Turing deemed greatest scientist
David Bowie died just about three years ago, but the work he had done as a musician and an all out legend made sure that he will be remembered for a long time. He was remembered renewed in a BBC fan poll that named him the "the greatest entertainer of the 20th century."
The British voted for Bowie ahead of other 20th century entertainment giants such as Charlie Chaplin, Billie Holiday, and even Marilyn Monroe.
Along with Bowie's greatest entertainer, people also voted on greatest leader (Nelson Mandela), greatest explorer (Ernest Shackleton) and greatest scientist, which was given to Alan Turing, the subject of the movie 'Imitation Game'.
January 10 marked the third death anniversary of the Ziggy Stardust/many things creator, who passed away from a battle with liver cancer, just two days after he celebrated his 69th birthday.
