ROCK icon David Bowie “slept with with groupies aged just 13” but “refused to f**k a dead body”, a new book claims.
The upcoming biography — David Bowie: A Life— by British GQ editor Dylan Jones reveals details of how the late British star was consumed by sex addiction and a dangerous cocaine habit, The Sun reports.
It alleges he adventured his way from conquest to conquest, embracing gay sex, threesomes, teens and group sex, multiple affairs and even inviting others to watch him have sex with women.
He was once even offered a “dead, warm body” to make love to — an offer he declined, MailOnline reported.
Before his death, Bowie had confessed to being “incredibly promiscuous” and sleeping with a string of women during the 1970s and 80s.
Jones addresses Bowie’s alleged relationship with 70s singer Dana Gillespi, who described herself as his girlfriend when she was only 13 or 14.
Earlier this year, lawyers of the legendary singer urged his secret love children to come forward and claim part of his £80million (A$129 million) fortune.
His famously wild sex life meant he left open the possibility that he fathered a string of secret love children.
Bowie died of cancer on January 10 last year, three days after his final album Blackstar was released and two days after his 69th birthday.
He had told only those closest to him of his 18-month battle with pancreatic cancer, which is believed to have spread to his liver.
In a 2002 interview with Jonathan Ross Bowie described himself as “incredibly promiscuous”.
He once slept with his landlady Mary Finnigan, and had flings with actors Elizabeth Taylor and Susan Sarandon.
He met and married Angela, then 20, in 1970 with the pair both late to their wedding after having a threesome. The couple were married for 10 years until 1980.
In Angie’s memoirs she claimed both her and David had flings with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger and his wife Bianca.
Other Bowie lovers included singers Marianne Faithfull, Lulu and Ola Hudson, mum of Guns N‘ Roses guitarist Slash, actress Monique van Vooren and Oona Chaplin, widow of Charlie.
The late singer also married to Somali-American model Iman in 1992 with the couple’s first and only child Lexi being born in 2000.
