Mick Jagger, David Bowie: gay love affair?

By Tribute on July 10, 2012 | 3 Comments


A new book is stirring up quite a controversy. Christopher Andersen’s Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger claims Mick Jagger and David Bowie, who could’ve had any lady of their choice, set their sights on each other instead. Andersen’s book says the affair began in the ’70s. He writes, “Bowie and Jagger were spotted everywhere together without their wives, neither complained when a photographer snapped them in a moment of repose, Bowie tenderly cradling Mick’s head in his lap. Bowie also took Mick to gay films.” One particular instance mentioned in the book discusses Angie Bowie (married to David at the time) coming home after being out of town for several days to find the two men asleep in bed together. “Angie went upstairs to her bedroom, slowly pushed the door open, and there  they were: Mick Jagger and David Bowie, naked in bed together, sleeping. Both men woke up with a start.” The book, sure to ruffle feathers, is filled with stories and sources confirming the affair. ~Stacy Raivich

    this isn’t breaking news. I heard the stories back in the 70’s….pretty sure rod stewart was mixed into the picture as well.

    Heard about that years ago. Is it mith or reality? I don’t really care.
