Help, My Idol Is Getting Old

David Bowie is ancient and has to rely on emergency heart surgery to keep him alive! :(

As though getting stabbed in the eye with the stick end of a lollipop weren't bad enough. :(

Wait wait lollipop what? When?

Lollipop.

Complete with horribly disturbing photographs of lollipop protruding from his eye and manager attempting to yank it out of his eye. So don't say you weren't warned. :p

A woman in the audience was waving a lollipop around, and someone else jostled her and knocked the lollipop out of her hand, and it went flying toward the stage and the stick end of it hit David Bowie in his eye and got stuck there. The fact that David Bowie has been mostly blind in that eye since he was punched in it during high school may have been why he didn't see it coming and reflexively blink in time to stop it from going into his eye.

David Bowie will never die.

I'll probably lock myself in my closet when he does. :/

And this happened in my lovely home country... oh the scandal. I'm sending good thoughts to bowie anyway... I'm afraid he needs it...
