Susan Sarandon nominates David Bowie for Ice Bucket Challenge

Susan Sarandan has taken the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, and then challenged David Bowie to do the same in her nomination. 

In a video posted on her Facebook page, Sarandon accepted the challenge from One Direction's Harry Styles, before going on to nominate Mellisa McCarthy and George Saunders alongside Bowie. 

The news comes after the award-winning revealed that she once had a sexual relationship with David Bowie earlier this year. Speaking to The Daily Beast, Sarandon revealed that the pair made the connection during the filming of 1983 vampire movie, The Hunger - in which she co-starred with The Thin White Duke.

"He's worth idolising. He’s extraordinary," she said. "That was a really interesting period. I wasn't supposed to have kids, and I'm the oldest of nine and had mothered all of them, so I wasn't ever in a mode to where I was looking to settle down and raise a family, so that definitely changes the gene pool you're dipping into. But Bowie's just a really interesting person, and so bright. He's a talent, and a painter, and… he's great."

We sincerely doubt that Bowie will accept the challenge - it's simply not his style (he might suggest Kate Moss do it in his stead though). We imagine he'll donate though, he's good like that.
