Daily Inspiration Quote by Rachel Perry

“David Bowie was awesome” lands like a fan squeal, but the real tell is the back half: “the easiest, coolest interview I have ever done.” Rachel Perry isn’t just praising a musician; she’s underwriting a particular kind of celebrity encounter where the power dynamics briefly flip. Interviews are usually a controlled collision of agendas: publicists, talking points, the host’s need for a usable moment. Calling it “easy” is code for access without friction, a star who doesn’t make you pay for proximity with anxiety or humiliation.

Bowie, crucially, is a safe name to idolize in public. He’s canon. He’s credibility. In celebrity culture, to say Bowie was “cool” is also to position yourself as someone who recognizes cool correctly. It’s a status signal disguised as a compliment. Perry’s phrasing is breathless, almost grammatically casual, which reads like authenticity-by-speed: she’s reproducing the feeling of the encounter rather than curating a perfectly poised testimonial.

The context matters: Bowie’s late-career aura was equal parts legend and gentleman, a figure who could grant legitimacy to whoever sat across from him. For an interviewer, that’s gold. Perry’s line functions as both personal memory and professional endorsement, a reminder that charisma isn’t only what performers project onstage; it’s also how they treat the people paid to extract a narrative from them. Bowie, in her telling, didn’t just perform cool. He distributed it.
