The androgynous, sexy, self-destructive glam rock superstar that happens to be the main character in Todd Haynes' movie Velvet Goldmine. That's what you get when you mix 75% David Bowie and 25% Dorian Gray. Also known as his stage alter-ego Maxwell Demon. Played by beautiful Jonathan Rhys Meyers.
Bowie fan: Isn't David Bowie awesome?
"Velvet Goldmine" fan: Yeah, but I prefer Brian Slade.
Bowie fan: Erm, that guy doesn't exist, he's just a bad copy of Ziggy Stardust.
"V. G." fan: I don't care, he's freaking awesome!
