(TV) TV OT - a message from sylain about Cyrinda Foxe
Cyrinda Foxe 1952-2002
Another New York Doll Died today...
Cyrinda Foxe (born Kathleen Hetzekian) was the inspiration behind the David
Bowie song "Jean Genie." She was also the hottest Andy Warhol superstar
ever! She really brought glamour
to rock 'n' roll music with her self-invented Marilyn Monroe looks. The
Armenian
girl left Texas with the brightest red lipstick for New York City and became
the self
made star that she knew she always would be. When New York Doll David
Johansen first saw her at Max's Kansas City, he wanted her so "BAD" that he
wrote the song "Looking For A Kiss" ! It didn't take long for their romance
to sparkle. They became the super star couple of the Manhattan rock scene.
I traded Foxe for her golden stretch lame` capri pants. She took my three
piece gentleman's dandy suit which I had purchased in London. Cyrinda loved
wearing my suit! I fashioned the New York Dolls famous glitter rock
signature look from Cyrinda's own pedal pushers. Taking apart her pants to
make a pattern, I then helped whipped up the look for the band. David
johansen wasn't the only David in her life. When Bowie first stepped off the
Q E 2 arriving in New York City, the first thing he wanted to see was "The
New York Dolls" and he came to the Mercer Arts Center . Like an alien
abduction, Billy (Doll) Murcia and Cyrinda Foxe vanished into Angie and
David Bowie's suite at The Plaza Hotel, only to re-emerge several long
nights and short days later. David Bowie was now in love was with Cyrinda &
Angei had a new lover Billy Doll! However Cyrinda chose to marry David
Johansen. Their romance was the envy of everyone. Including Steven Tyler,
whom she married in 1978. Johnny Thunders loved Cyrinda too! They had an on
and off love affair for years!
After Johnny Thunders died in spring of 1991, she came to one of my shows in
New York City. It was so beautiful to see her again! She asked me to play
the "Courageous Cat Theme" which was the instrumental that she loved and
launched the glitter rock tour in 1973. She danced in front of the stage!
Bouncing up and down just like It was the old days again.
All I can say now is Cyrinda was such a special part of my youth. She turned
me on to so many things that I'll always carry her in my heart everyday of
my life.
Today heaven is a much cooler and glamorous place.
Bye Sweetheart (((((Cyrinda))))) You will always live forever!
