David Bowie is often mistaken for having invented the Bowie knife. Having in fact been invented by Jim Bowie, David Bowie perfected this machete-type weapon into the emo cutter. He is ... well known for his bisexual affairs with celebrities such as Oscar Wilde, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, and Billy Corgan (as well as his tumultuous marriage to Marc Bolan), but true Bowie fans know he just gays it up to sell records, and really Bowie is dead-butch. He also played a key role in the invention of the Lollipop, among other extremely important things. He lives in a sandcastle on James Bond Beach.

He still maintained "I'm Pierrot, I'm Everyman. what you see on stage isn't sinister. putting over the great sadness of 1976."
