Explore the rise, reinvention, and raw truth behind David Bowie—one of pop culture's most fascinating icons. In this Fame Factor exclusive, host Sonia Lambert takes you inside the mind of Bowie: the glam rock chameleon, the gender pioneer, and the spiritual wanderer. From Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke, discover how Bowie built his myth—and how that myth almost destroyed him.

We break down his impact on gender identity, his bold use of stage personas, and the dark period where reality blurred with fiction. Was Bowie a genius performer, or a man losing control? We also unpack the cultural significance of his music, his spiritual side, and the scandals that haunted him—like the controversial 1976 salute.

If you're curious about the truth behind Bowie's art, his fame, and his psychological unraveling, this episode is your deep dive into the man who sold the world—just to buy his soul back.
