Propaganda: “My first crush on a real person (cartoon characters don't count) was on David Bowie in Labyrinth. My father heard me say how attractive he was and immediately went and fished out his copy of the Ziggy Stardust album to show me the cover and liner images as though this was going to somehow make me LESS attracted to Bowie. It backfired spectacularly. I have loved this man for nearly my entire life. 80s Bowie gets memed on a lot but he was still beautiful and iconic and deserves a place in this tournament.”

“In 1986 Bowie blessed us with the Goblin King himself. No further comments.”
