- Angela (Angie) Bowie, model-writer and ex-wife of David Bowie, is joined by late cabaret star Kenny Sacha in this rare half-hour interview with cable TV host Skip E. Lowe. Sacha, who died in 1992, played clubs across the country, appeared in several TV shows and impersonated Barbra Streisand in Bette Midler's "The Rose".
She should have been on ' ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS ' .
I have an old copy of Bette Midler's "Thighs and Whispers" album that has the name "Kenny Sasha" written in the corner, like people used to do to their albums so people wouldn't steal them, or borrow them and not give them back.
That was the strangest interview I ever saw 😁
I might not agree with all of her political opinions or viewpoints but I have a helluva lot of respect for this woman.
What are her polotics?
I had a good friend die of AIDS in 1989. Such a beautiful boy. We lost so many beautiful talented young men to that terrible disease.
I didn't know who this young guy was but I googled and discovered he died of AIDS. So sad. So young - what a terrible disease, it really did steal almost an entire generation of creative talent. I was young then and this was a blast from the past - I remember all those wacky cable shows NYC had (I guess LA too!) It's sad watching this and seeing Kenny for the first time and thinking what a cool and talented guy he seems to be and then finding out he didn't get a chance to continue bringing his talents to the world because of that scourge. It was sad, but I wasn't surprised, remembering what that disease did to the world.
I'm guessing you looked up Kenny Sacha and saw he died in 92? I did the same but didn't look at the cause of death, I just saw 92 and knew it was aids. It took so many great men and women.
It was the drug AZT that caused AIDS and killed people
@@looneytoons2878 you have been misinformed
@@JeffRebornNow Look up Magic Johnson and what happened to him
didn't anyone notice she was obviously coked up and obviously putting on a face British accent until the the other guy showed up?
sorry meant "fake"
Yes, she is definitely full of coke in this interview
@@graziameo-colombo7703 and lies. Never once have I seen her in an interview not blabbing about David. He was her only ticket to fame.
like it or not, she was who david needed when he was starting. Iman wouldnt have been able to handle ziggy stardust and thin white duke era
How can you know that Iman wouldn't have been able to handle it? She met David at one of his concerts in 1976 when she came to America.
@StardustMagic that's not true Iman said in an interview that they met on a blind date their friends set up.
@@jaclynseliner7860 no they met at one of his concerts backstage before that, but they had the same hairdresser who set them up on a date where the properly got to know each other

Happy birthday Angie
her son with david is the fabulous director duncan jones, he has not spoken to her since he was 13 its said.
i highly recommend Moon and Mute, 2 movies from mr jones, both are awesome, moving.
She changes accents every interview. RIP and happy birthday David!
Agreed. Her accents do vary. Her performance clip here is dreadful
She looks like Annie Lennox.
I thought Hazel O'Connor with her mannerisms?
Lies.... Annie Lennox is gorgeous.
I just learned that Skip E. Lowe ashes had been scattered at Ventura Pier although he passed from emphysema September 22, 2014 at the age of 85 he had been cremated and his ashes had been scattered at Ventura Pier in California on November 23, 2014. What a career Skip was in movies Black Shampoo, ( 1976 ) The World's Greatest Lover ( 1977), Cameron's Closet ( 1988 ) , and A-List ( 2006 ), in 2001 Skip authored The Boy with Betty Grable legs: A showbiz Memoir. On this cable show he did over 6, 000 interviews let that sink in a moment . What a career LaBella which Skip adopted the name LaBella later in his career. He also worked in stand up comedy. What a treasure truly. I hope to find the 6,000 plus interviews here on UA-cam. Next time your in California ( Ventura) walk the Pier say hello to Skip aka Labella ...Rip June 6, 1929 - September 22, 2014
His name was Skip E
always like her, she was part of the early days
Me too, she's funny and intelligent - and she helped David A LOT. It must be hard having creative yearnings of your own but being married to someone who is an artistic genius - she's definitely creative and interesting but she's not a performer - but so what?! Back then there was a ton of interesting performance art and a vibrant downtown scene. A lot of people weren't exactly geniuses either. If you have the guts to get out there and express yourself creatively, power to you!! Even if she were great, she'd still be lousy by comparison to the creative god she was married to! That would not have been easy. I think she has artistic talent in other ways, however - she helped Bowie fully realize Ziggy and worked hard to make him a star. She would have been an amazing agent! People who slag her forget - the same things they criticize her for may have been qualities that made Bowie fall in love with her. He clearly liked who she was until he outgrew the relationship, so you are in a way criticizing him too.
@@melizmatea Don't forget Rock&roll was a men's men word.
I have always loved Angie Bowie. Without her Bowie would have never become 'David Bowie'.
what do you mean. They got married so her name was Angie Bowie, actually her name is Angela Barnett. She took the surname of David Bowie.
@@Thanoslefthand652 Actually Bowie's legal surname was Jones. He had to create a stage name because there was already a Davey Jones in the music industry. He admired Jim Bowie so he adopted that and it worked well for him. About Angie Bowie, I just offered my own opinion on what an incredible influence she had on his career. She knew the people to go to, to get Bowie work, contracts, advertising.
@@Boris82much oohhh that's what you mean, I thought wrong because you said HER. That's right my mistake
Totally agree as she was integral to his success snd artistry. I have read many books on music and Bowie for many years and I was like 12 when I got into Ziggy via Creem magazine.
Beautiful 💕💕
Journalists who can’t research! He thought she was English! Honestly....
Big deal! There was no Wikipedia back then, and there might not yet have been a bazilion autobiographies about them either.
She's Polish, a Slavic lady.
I was thinking the same, it's embarrassing.
I lived in Cyprus , awesome 👏
Skip E. Lowe is the father of Jiminy Glick.
shes so unique. performers are a dream.
The perfect wife to Ziggy Stardust!
She moves like Bowie... Angie Bowie, I feel
I noticed Courtney's music sounded like Kurt's - mutual creative influence, maybe
“Oh, success” 🤣
Painful to watch … classic example of somebody out-smarting themselves … very, very glad she grew out of it
I never saw an interview with Angie Bowie before. She was rather unsettling. I can kind of see how she would have worked as a good partner for David in those relatively early years, but she does not seem like she had what it took to be a public personality on her own, although I guess she did want to be one.
Is this her David Bowie impersonation? Epic FAIL
9 mins in and I can't watch any more. Who is this woman? Is she possessed? Speaking with an English accent?? She's insane. Poor David. She helped at first, but I can completely understand why he couldn't stand her in the end.
As a french I prefer English accent to yankies one.
The barbara streisand face 😅
and she blatantly stole David Bowie's quotes and mannerisms in the first part.
It happens. When are you around someoneone so much.
Maybe he got them from her.
Anna Vajda Yep. That must be why she’s the world changing mega star and she isn’t. But still uses HIS pseudonym. Great point!
What?! I don't know what you are referring to. That's ridiculous.
Actually, no. She helped to create him and she does not ever get the credit she deserves for the early days. Mick Ronson's ex gives agrees Angie played a big part in making Ziggy. I am not saying she is a nice person but back then she was a creative force .
These people are all weird and so are the questions and so is the music!
She does remind me of my housemate who moved out georgina she hardly helped with house jobs though
What year was this.
Based on the play mentioned I’d say 1984.
21:29 Skip Lowe thought the Russian River was a club in San Francisco.
The gay man in this died a couple of days after I was born. August 92. Must have been aids. Lost so many great gay men in the mid 80s to mid 90s. 🥺
Congratulations on your new album with 'Mystery' records Angie. What's in your album? "umm"... [blank look.]
So you raise race horses. How many do you have? "Umm..." [blank look.]
An historical document.
This is from 1988
Oh bless her heart ,she's very coked up I think.
Looks more like smack, to be honest.
She is speaking with a fake English accent. How Bizarre!
I did notice as well, you think she fakes it ??.or she is out of order a bit ??
It sounds kind of natural, but I also watched a video of her being interviewed about David Bowie's success, etc. And she didn't sound English at all.
I know! Later on, she dropped the accent
What the matter with her accent, she's free to talk the way she wants.
Such an English sounding accent. Today she is full on USA. I live Angie but her accent in tbe clip is do fake.
She's out of it
Her eyes are all over the place so I think she's manic or bipolar something going on
There has to be a film called How do you live with a girl like Angie?. I find her impossible to like and very self obsessed, she may have been great for Bowie to feed off of but must have been impossible to live with too, it feels like she never turns off and that is an awful character trait but that is me, others may find her charming.
Angie Or is it Andrew.
drugs make you look old she's 66 now looks86
What an awful interview! The interviewer seems not to know anything at all about Angela or about David. Also, he doesn’t hide the fact that he is not interested in her, but wants the dirt on David. Also Angela seems out of it, either on drugs, or simply disinterested and not focused.
They are aware that men acted the women's parts in Shakespeare plays back then because women weren't allowed, right? Which is the opposite of progressive?
didnt know ken barlow was really a yank
Yes and a complete prick too
I didn't know Angie Bowie was an English rock star??
There's no such last name as Bowie. It was David's stage name only. It was not a legal name. So her taking the name in the first place was fake. After their divorce it was even more idiotic.
No, he literally change it, he doesn't born with it but it's his legal name since the late 60's I think
@@pisospicados3337 no it wasn't. He was David Jones legally. He signed legal documents as Jones. Bowie was simply a name he chose like some writers do for whatever reason that they only use professionally. In David's case he never changed it. That's why his daughter is Lexi Jones and his son is Duncan Jones.
The interviewer is more odd than she is!
this old queen has no clue who she is oh boy was that singing or a breakdown
Cringey-no?
Her accent suddenly changes to usa twang
Ugh.
🤢🤢🤢
She is fabulous looking for her age! She is what 29?
About the makeup it was not that heavy . He went
I had alway's saw Angie as a true survivor , and as an individual , I thought she had the heart of a poet .
I suspected that she had a great love for Art , Music and Poetry , and she most of all would of been one who I would of been most grateful too for allowing me to recite my original poetry too , I would of loved her to hear my poetry as if I could of dreamed it or as to have a wish in life that she could have . We all have dreams that goes beyond the material world and that would of been one for me .
Thank you for posting !
`Liked' !!!
Eso es precioso❤
Her audiobook is here for free and you hear her talking about all the things she spoke about with David and you realize it may have been she that actually educated him and caused him to really grow and become the entertainer he was in the early days and first few years of some of his greatest successes .
I just got done listening to the one here for free I think it was called backstage pass and I really do believe everything she wrote in the book and everything she says .
A lot of it made me sad and I believe he knew he screwed her over in the end and was harsh towards her especially with the gag order where she was not allowed to talk about or write about their relationship for 10 years afterwards .
I really do believe that she did all the things she said she did to help his career and I really do believe she made a massive difference where where it not for her being so organized and having the know how with marketing and with people that he might never have made it to that status early on and maybe would have sort of missed the boat as they call it
Also I think the strangest part of the book is when she talks about being at their friend's house in LA with the storm outside his window ... well it won't make sense now but when you hear it , it'll be kind of strange .
I think the woman did way too much for him looking back ... she was his mother his lover his cook his confidant , his manager , his organizer ... she did everything for him and got very little back in return ... very very little .
I also believe her when she talks about the time he choked her .
As much as I love David Bowie I do believe he was as clever and smart as she says he was and charming ... he was extremely ambitious and I do believe he was a bit of a social climber and used people yes I do believe that as much as I really admire him I did hear things about him being a user .
Sometimes she remembers me of Courtney...
Exactly same nastyness
yup both use they’re husbands for fame
@@lostcitybird David used her too
Yes her voice but she's way better than Courtney...
Yes her voice but she's way better than Courtney...
Maybe she picked up her British accent after living many years in Britain. Who the heck is this interviewer guy? “Women like horses”?
She can't maintain the fake accent once Kenny joins the interview.
She even says she wasn't a model in the interview, so I'm left wondering did you even watch this yourself, as you state model / writer in the bio lol...
She has a repellent personality but Angie Bowie was a main creative force as David was an emerging performer.
D.B. was charming and talented but he had a history of dispensing with people when they were no longer useful to him.
I like her, and I love Bowie but there are proof that he treat her poorly
I love Bowie's music but he did seem to be a bit cold.
But he stayed married to his latest wife for a long time.
That's debatable...she's complicated but not completely repellant
Despite being high here Angela was hot!!!
I think YOU must be high!
It's a shame really but she could never move on from David
Makes you wonder why Duncan never kept in touch with her
spoiled brat? LOL
@stacyyoust Morr like she was a horrid mum
@@mister3566 because good parents always get custody
@@stacyyoust Bowie did a good job
@@mister3566 oh thanks for Xplaining!!
She seems a bit drugged up, or at least that's my impression, or she is just a bit creepy, what she does with the eyes, the facial expressions...
All famous people are a bit strange... I don't believe Angie was a druggie, more of a hysteric drama queen.
Bowie would never be without this odd woman and people should always keep that in mind
Suzi Fussey and Freddie Burretti were his stylists, not Angie. Please give credit where it's due. Angie set some deals up for him and pitched in backstage. I guess she was more of a marketer/PA until Coco came along and did a more professional job.
Heroin. Personality disordered piece of hell and fulltime Psychological vampire.
I'm 99,9 % sure that she's on coce here
@@heavymeddle28 Not at all.
Angie has beautiful teeth
Yes. That alone makes her stand out not being British. The English have such horrible teeth, Bowie included. Something in the water? 🐝
She is faking the British accent, watch other videos of her she obviously has an american accent
Angie's been a victim of negative PR over the years, much of it undeserved. Along with Mick Ronson, she was responsible for much of David's early success. Like Mick & many others she was eventually discarded in the wake of David's meteoric rise to the top. Angie is fondly remembered by many of David's early friends in Beckenham & Bromley.
really ......... her own son wants nothing to do with her .....guess bad pr ........ her son calls his nanny his really mother ...guess that down to bad pr .........she took over 700k in the 80's off bowie hence the gag order he basically paid her money to get his son away from her because he was cleaning up and she was still pumping heroin into her veins , he married her to give her a visa ......... also friends of people are not testament of that person either they don't see the bigger picture and what happens behind the curtains she reminds me courtney love and that is not a compliment at all
Welcome to the dystopian, cocaine fuelled world of David Bowie aka The Thin White Duke! Angie Bowie was airbrushed completely from David's life & anyone who mentioned her became persona non grata. Ironically, as David descended into the mire of drugs, sex & alcohol Angie began to seek a world of greater normality. By then David was living a hedonistic & addictive parallel life. It became almost impossible to gain access to her husband who would indulge in drug fuelled sex with men or women in hotel bedrooms. Lori Mattix & friends have some interesting memories from that time! Not good PR & never mentioned. Bowie's security would prevent Angie from entering David's hotel room during these sessions...I'm sure that hurt to the core! Bowie once told Gail Ann Dorsey that he was glad she never knew him during those days, he said he was not a nice person. Angie may not have been a saint but the fact that she has been damned since 1980 is grossly unfair! Like Ronson she remained largely uncredited by Bowie for any part in his early success....but hey, that's showbiz!
James Hyman i
Read her book, love. Angie was wilder than he was.
James Hyman: You do not know the whole story. That is just what you have read and heard from the son, Duncan. You do not know what really happened. Do not judge until you know the facts and you do not. 711honved has it right.
@@jameshyman418
For a minute I thought Skip was Ken Barlow !!!
She looks like Paula Yates...Or vice-versa. She gets a lot of hate, but David wouldn't have had the career, the looks, The style, the ambition, or even the music, without Angie.
The Stones would not have the song Angie either which was written after she caught her husband in bed with Mick.
@@AnnaLVajda Yeah, I'd heard that story, too. What a site.
Personality disordered piece of hell. Psychological vampire.
@@AnnaLVajda They make it with another name.
Who in the hell would buy her album
God bless her she looks strung out here. I feel for her.
Yeah in her autobiography she says she was using heroin around this period.
Busy girl. She met Bowie at age 19 and claims she was an actress, uni graduate...Which didn't exist at the time and she is labelled a rock star. She certainly didn't master an accent. What a lark!
I don't get it. He doesn't seem to know anything about her
Skip E. Lowe allegedly inspired Martin Short to create Jiminy Glick. He idolized celebrities and was known for asking bizarre questions. Research was definitely not his strength.
In Gavin Geoffrey Dillard's memoir "In the Flesh: Undressing for Success," he devotes an entire chapter to 'Angie.' HYSTERICAL!!!
‘Rockstar’ Angie Bowie? Jesus fucking Christ.
I get the point, but next time say Mohamed Efiin Islam ! Thanks
She's not English. Why is she speaking like that?
Bowie was floundering: Anthony Newley imitator, 2nd rate folkie imitating Dylan, and Simon and Garfunkel (Give a listen to Cygnet Committee, and Letter To Hermione respectively). Angie and Mick Ronson pushed him into rock and roll and androgyny with "The Man Who Sold The World" album. and evenmoreso with "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" .
Wonder why her son takes nothing to do with her.
She was bowies controller for that key period
Wow I love this, and the interview, I am 63 years old and I most likely will take LSD and Heroin again !!! so I can comprehend this whole interview. What happened ? What a load of bullshit.
Thank God she has toned down the pretentiousness in later interviews.
l didn't know she'd been a member of the Royal family
Why the hell is she speaking with an English accent here?
Because she is smug and pompous
She has an American accent 😂 must have put this on 😂
Don't do drugs.
Onyetbiewer is a bit of C.
I'm sure here Angie is stoned, just a guess.
She is American
What year is this?
i saw one photo of her in the moonage daydream new film, bowie was potrayed as being single but he was married to Angie, would have liked to hear just a bit about that in the film
I'm sure Iman has complete say over his estate and probably didn't want any time devoted to her
@@allisonchainz82 Time wasn’t devoted to Iman in the film either.
Brett Morgen, the director of “Moonage Dreams” concentrated on Bowie’s work and ethos not so much his personal relationships.
As for Angela, this is one of the more truthful interviews I’ve seen her do and it was a breath of fresh air.
@@danielkerwin2337 No there's a section about Iman
@@allisonchainz82 Yes, I watched it again and you are right. Approximately 3 minutes was spent on his relationship with Iman. Angela got one pic ( great dress design!) and a scene on the interior staircase of the Amstel Hotel. Probably 1.5 minutes in total.
You know Kenny was known for Buffy the Vampire Slayer in (1992) and Simon & Simon ( 1981) also Madame's Place ( 1982) Kenny Sacha January 22, 1953 - August 1, 1992 . RIP
What's w/ the accent?
She likes different accents, so what!
Behind every man ..
Angela could have played Gozer in Ghostbusters
I despise the way she treated her own son. Heartless.
She is so amazing
She’s certainly no performer but that’s only my own opinion of what I’ve seen 😬🤷♀️ so fake! Such a shame people have to pretend what they not are 🙄 and half way through she’s American?!?
Margaret Galbraith your comment was a waste of space
I'd have to say every successful performer pretends to be what they are not...! Don't kid yourself!
He asked her where she was from at exact moment that I was wondering "Where is this fake British accent coming from?".
From spending 10 years in Britain. People disrespect her - she was on UK CBB - and she was cool and she was decent - can you imagine being dumped by the person you love just as they become famous? Angie is great. And David wouldnt have it said any other way.
Linda McCartney, too. Though that might have been more of a patrician "boarding school" accent
@@MARSBELLA1 Unhappily it happen so often when a guy became famous, almost in those days.
Is there any blood left in her drugs?
