Twitter users are dragging The Washington Post's after they tweeted a review entitled 'Debbie Harry proves she’s more than just a pretty blonde in tight pants'
| Posted on 2 mins agoThe Washington Post has made, all about her hair colour and the elasticity of her trousers. Publicising a review of the memoir, the newspaper wrote on Twitter 'Review: In her memoir, Debbie Harry proves she’s more than just a pretty blonde in tight pants'.
Unsurprisingly, Twitter users have taken to the platform to drag The Washington Post's problematic editorial decision. One user wrote ' I’ve never heard David Bowie referred to as a pretty blond in tight pants. Or even as a pretty blond in eyeliner and mascara. He was both, but his talent is why he was so famous and why his memory endures. But he was a guy, so…'. Multiple others tweeted about Debbie Harry's pivotal influence in the punk and new wave genres.
Debbie Harry herself has remained quiet over the controversy, only mentioning the review in a retweet publicising the release date for, first-person essays by Harry are blended with interviews by journalist Sylvie Simmons. The book also delves into the band's creative and commercial journey, and covers Debbie Harrys relationship with guitarist Chris Stein who struggled with pemphigus, a rare autoimmune disease.
'There are many more stories for me to tell; some funny, some scary, some warm, some chill to the bone,' Harry said. 'And ifappeals to people then I will get to telling more of the anecdotal bits of the story of Blondie – like the time I met Rita Hayworth and Penny Singleton backstage at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles.'
