And he started to talk about an afterlife and he said, categorically, that he didn\u2019t think there was one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tilda revealed she formed a solid friendship with the &#8216;Heroes&#8217; star and they often shared jokes together. <\/p>\n<p>She recalled: &#8220;I remember that while making &#8216;The Stars (Are Out Tonight)&#8217;, a music video directed by Floria Sigismondi, I\u2019d found a silly, anatomically deformed carrot in my salad at lunch \u2013 we talked about that, it kept us going for days \u2026 &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added: &#8220;He was always sending me images \u2013 sometimes silly, sometimes not. I used to be amazed at how aware he was of what we were all doing: he was so switched on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nTilda previously admitted she&#8217;d been a fan of Bowie since she was a teenager and thought of him as a &#8220;cousin&#8221; because of their similar looks.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe told the Daily Beast: &#8220;My whole relationship with Bowie started when I was 13, and I bought a copy of\u00a0&#8216;Aladdin Sane&#8217;\u00a0when I didn\u2019t have a record player.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I had this record for a year before I could play it, and it was the image &#8211; not the sound &#8211; that I was attracted to. I just saw this image and thought he was my cousin. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;He just looked like me, and looked like someone from the same planet as I did, and that was a great comfort to me at the time when I was 13 and 14 looking like that, that someone not only looked like that, but felt proud enough to stick themselves on the front of an album with a zig-zag across their face and a dewy collarbone. He\u2019s always felt like a cousin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added of Bowie: &#8220;He feels like my cousin; like the cousin I never had.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/david-bowie-gave-verdict-afterlife-tilda-swinton-1388312.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>13 November 2023 Tilda Swinton has revealed David Bowie three years confessed he did not believe in an afterlife three years before he died.
