Supermodel Iman fell for music legend David Bowie after realising he had impeccable manners, and insists the colourful rocker is just a normal husband.
The pair has been married for 20 years, and the beauty reveals Bowie is plain old David Jones at home, despite his outlandish on-stage persona.
And she'll never forget the time Bowie proved he was different from his rock peers - by bending down and tying her shoelaces in the middle of a busy street.
She says, "I am married to David Jones. David Bowie and David Jones are two totally different people.
"I did not want to get involved with a rock star. No way. It is not a sane thing to do but David changed my mind. He wooed me.
"I remember once the laces on my trainers came undone and David was down on his knees in the middle of the street tying them for me. I thought to myself, 'This one's a keeper.' He's not an enigma at home!"

David made Gaga relevant, you mean.
Just two small examples:
Bags and shirts with his face on them have been popular before Gaga made her great entrance, and his music was being played at the same clubs that now play Gaga on a regular basis before and after she became popular.
I mean, I realize you're trolling, but STILL.
i have increasingly seen men give a second glance, pondering whether or not they should hold the door open for ladies.
some guys just press the handicap button to keep the door open instead, because those extra three seconds it takes to hold the door open will ruin the trajectory of their entire day.
along the lines of saying "excuse me," and waiting in line (not cutting in front of someone) even if you just need change
What I've heard from several guy friends is that the girls that they were dating would get offended if they tried to pay for the date or held the door open for them or made them wait in the car so that they could open the car door for them. they would start rambling about being able to take care of themselves and they aren't weak and can do things by themselves, etc.
They take that info and unfortunately apply it to girls like myself who are the complete opposite. I like when men are 'chivalrous' and idg why that has to mean you are a 'weak woman' if your boyfriend or dates does things for you.

Manners/gentlemanliness/etc go a long way
That being said, I think it should work both ways. I'm not a princess, but I do want to be treated nicely (as most people do) and I understand that my bf expects the same kind of treatment from me.
And as for manners in general, I usually hold the door open for someone, depending on how far away they are. I always ALWAYS hold a door open for a woman with a baby carriage, even if I'm passing by the store and don't intend to go in.
Although if you have seen Labyrinth, it's no surprise. LOL
