David Cameron “Cried with Joy” at David Bowie’s BRIT Acceptance Speech

UK Prime Minister has spoken of how he happy he was that David Bowie, who currently lives in New York, used his BRIT Award acceptance speech to ask Scotland to not leave the UK, as the country’s bid for independence from the UK and its Conservative government continues.

Bowie’s acceptance speech, which he delivered through model Kate Moss who accepted the award for Best British Male on his behalf, read: “I’m completely delighted to have a Brit for being the Best Male. I think it’s a great way to end the day. Thank you very much – and Scotland, stay with us.”

Speaking to the Telegraph, Cameron said of the speech: “I was watching the BRIT Awards and when I saw Kate Moss leap to the stage and utter those words I have to say I did let out a little cry of joy. I’m sure that maybe someone like David Bowie might be able to reach parts of Scotland that perhaps I can’t.”
