Debbie Harry has insisted “most women” would have “died” to have David Bowie flash his penis at them.
Debbie Harry wasn’t upset when David Bowie flashed his penis at her
The Blondie frontwoman memorably revealed in her 2019 autobiography ‘Face It’ that offering cocaine to Iggy Pop and the late ‘Ziggy Stardust’ hitmaker – who died of cancer in 2016 – during a tour in 1977, her pal had thanked her by taking out his “notoriously” large member.
