Описание: Explaining why he declined royal honours in an interview with The Sun newspaper, Bowie said: “I would never have any intention of accepting anything like that. I seriously don’t know what it’s for. It’s not what I spent my life working for. It’s not my place to make a judgment on (Sir Mick) Jagger, it’s his decision. But it’s just not for me”. Bowie was then questioned on whether this stance was because he held a pro-Republic / anti-monarchy viewpoint, which he carefully deflected, by saying: “I’d only have a serious answer to that if I was living in this country”. While Bowie always kept his genuine opinion on the monarchy close to his chest, his refusal indicates he probably wasn't keen on unelected billionaire feudal monarchs. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_who_have_declined_a_British_honour Portrait of David Bowie at the Tweeter Center outside Chicago in Tinley Park, Illinois, USA on August 8, 2002 by Adam Bielawski adapted using the Wikipedia app w.wiki/9NP9
