Ben Stiller has spoken out to pay tribute to the late, great David Bowie after the pair starred together in the hit movie, Zoolander.
Stiller was speaking at the premiere of the sequel, Zoolander 2 - where he honoured the influence of the Thin White Duke and recalled what it was like for him to cameo in the now legendary 'walk off' scene from back in 2001.
"He was a huge influence on so many people, I think on our culture, in the last 40, 50 years - when you go back and look at how long he was making music and how ahead of the curve he always was and always taking chances," said Stiller, reports The Mirror. "So I think I'm like everyone else - influenced by him in that way."
He continued: "And it would have been great to have him in the second one. "But having him in the first was a very special thing, and I will always cherish that."
Zoolander No 2 features cameos from stars including Benedict Cumberbatch, Justin Bieber, Sting, Olivia Munn and Ariana Grande.
Today also saw the release of a beautiful Bowie covers tribute album by Amanda Palmer, featuring the likes of Anna Calvi and many more.
Meanwhile, this week also saw details of Bowie's will, fortune and funeral revealed - amid reports that he planned more music to be released before his death.
