Radio presenter announces David Cameron dead not David Bowie

A radio presenter accidentally announced David Cameron had died this morning.


Heart FM presenter Fiona Winchester was reading the news when she got mixed up, reading out the Prime Minister’s name instead of David Bowie, who sadly passed away from cancer last night.

‘David Cameron has died,’ she said, before quickly realising her mistake.

One Twitter user said: ‘Very smooth from the radio news lady. ‘David Cameron has died. David Bowie, I mean David Bowie.”

Another added: “Lassie on Heart FM just read out the news and said ‘David Cameron has died’ instead of Bowie.”

The Prime Minister has already tweeted about the death of the music legend , writing: “I grew up listening to and watching the pop genius David Bowie.

“He was a master of re-invention, who kept getting it right. A huge loss.”

The official news of Bowie’s death was posted on his official social media account his morning .

A short statement read: “David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18 month battle with cancer.

“While many of you will share in this loss, we ask that you respect the family’s privacy during their time of grief.”

David’s son, film director Duncan Jones, 44, also confirmed the news via Twitter.

Underneath a touching picture of himself as a toddler being carried by his famous father, he wrote: “Very sorry and sad to say it’s true. I’ll be offline for a while. Love to all.”
