Friday Night with Jonathan Ross2001

David Bowie:
I've got my own site, plus I got kind of an art site and the idea is to help graduate students find some kind of way to show their work, without having to pay huge commissions to dealers who usually take 50% of what an artist makes.

Himself - Host:
That's still a better deal than you had in the 70s isn't it? With your agency main man, you got about 10%.

David Bowie:
I wasn't that lucky, John.

Himself - Host:
Cuz you made nothing for years.

David Bowie:
No, nothing, I had a lovely wardrobe though. But fat lot of good it does you when you're trying to find a place to live when you're dressed like that.

Himself - Host:
[laughs] You mention 'Well can I look at the flat on the sign outside?' 'I'm sorry mate, we're full.'

David Bowie:
'He's got a knitted cozy and its legs' missing and its arms' missing and he's wearing like a fur thing, and he wants to know if the room's available!'
