Overview

• Lulu told Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast that this is the first time she has explicitly said she had sex with Bowie.
• She described the relationship as “deeper than sex,” saying she was seeking love and recalling a hazy first encounter after meeting at a Sheffield hotel.
• The singer said she chose to walk away because Bowie was taking a lot of drugs, adding that she left for London despite still admiring his talent.
• Providing historical context, she noted their 1974 collaboration on her cover of The Man Who Sold the World, which Bowie produced and sang and played saxophone on.
• Her remarks align with promotion for her memoir If Only You Knew, where she also discusses alcoholism and long-term sobriety, including a last drink in November 2013.
