An eagle-eyed David Bowie fan claims to have discovered another ‘secret’ or ‘easter egg’ hidden within the artwork of his last album, ‘Blackstar’.
Some fans had already found that exposing the artwork to sunlight unveiled a galaxy of stars.
Then another fan found that after placing the artwork under a UV blacklight, it glows a luminous blue:

Now, as Spin reports, another fan has counted the total number of points on the six black stars in the CD album booklet, and realised they total 69 – Bowie’s age when he died.
Even more secrets from the album’s artwork have been unveiled this week – check them out here.

Meanwhile, earlier this week a special tribute concert was announced for Bowie’s birthday in his birth place of South London.
The ‘Heroes’ icon will be celebrated with a unique show at Brixton Academy on January 8 – led by a host of friends, collaborators, former bandmates and special guests.
The London gig will include an appearance from Bowie’s close friend Gary Oldman. The actor featured in his video for ‘The Next Day’ and gave an emotional tribute speech to The Thin White Duke at The BRIT Awards earlier this year.
Speaking to NME, Bowie’s former drummer in Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars has recounted his last contact with Bowie and the music icon’s final days.
