David Bowie's Twitter Punks Everyone

There are a few David Bowie rumors to put to rest. Number one: he doesn't have a Twitter account, despite reports that surfaced last week announcing he was back in Berlin, making music, which originated from an announcement via Twitter. Number two: he's not playing Coachella as his '70s alter-ego Ziggy Stardust.

"The story goes that David was in talks to perform his Ziggy Stardust album at the festival this year, the rumour really took hold and the 'news' was reported online around the globe and in the English press," reads a post at DavidBowie.com. "I'm sure the majority of you saw this tale for what it was anyway: poppycock!"

"We feel duty-bound to deny this particular story, lest [website] members be fleeced of their hard-earned [money]," the announcement continued. "While we're about it, David Bowie does not have a Twitter account."
