THE COUNTRY ISSUE IS OUT NOW!

Confessions of a FILM FOX

Hollywood is infatuated with darling David's...unique talents, in fact he's becoming a regular Pal Bowie to tinsel town. Although the fling with D.B. hasn't fanned into a full blown affair yet, he is being offered a motley assortment of scripts, since completing his sci-fi flick, The Man Who Fell To Earth (in which he also wrote the score and sings the title song).

Confessions of a FILM FOX

Hollywood is infatuated with darling David's...unique talents, in fact he's becoming a regular Pal Bowie to tinsel town. Although the fling with D.B. hasn't fanned into a full blown affair yet, he is being offered a motley assortment of scripts, since completing his sci-fi flick, The Man Who Fell To Earth (in which he also wrote the score and sings the title song). Palomar Productions is currently prodding David to costar with that naughty lady from The' Night Porter, Charlotte Rampling in I Never Promised You A Rose Garden. Another studio has offered our hennaed hero the starring role of a ray gun playing opposite that wonderfully wicked Wayne County who is, cast as a runaway Sputnik in the remake of It Caft\e From Outer Space. He's given neither company the nod yet, but is looking for a backer for his projected Young Americans, yes folks based on the "soundtrack." He already promised Iggy a "small but meaty role" in the bi-centennial epic, so he seems pretty confident in the incoming bucks. The show biz bug has filtered far into the Bowie camp, the London heiress Savrina Guineas who is David's Girl Friday (but who is David's Boy Friday?) and former nanny to that terrorizing preteen, Tatum O'Neal, has applied for membership in the Screen Actors Guild in anticipation of launching her Hollywood film career. For a minute it looked like Elvis was going to be doing the Funky Chicken in style, that is in the air. He was seriously thinking about buying a Boeing. 707 private airplane featuring a sauna, a gymnasium, and a dance floor. But the million plus price tag was a little hefty, for our now padded "Pelvis." Meantimes, Presley's Priscilla flew off to Hawaii with her heart throb (and Karate instructor) Mike Stone. But pretty Priscilla returned home alone to house clean, sweeping her star boarder out of her house. More Kung Fu Fighting: Linda Lee has charged Allied Artists Motion Picture Company and three other firms with a legal suit for 3 mil, for invading her privacy for inaccurately portraying her personal and private life in a movie about her late husband Btuce Lee called The Dragon Dies Hard. Bruce is certainly receiving alot of posthumous popularity because Barbra Streisand's Jon Peters is producing The Life and Legend of Bruce Lee starring *Don Knotts.
