She's not playing country music, or classical. Whatever it is she's screaching is, in some respects, rock and roll. Therefore, if you're going to go out into the world to play rock and roll, I expect you to at least know the names of those who rocked hard before you.
And I'm not saying she needs to memorize his whole catalog either. Basic information about someone as influential as David Bowie is fine:
His beginnings as Ziggy Stardust
The titles to a few of his songs.
And how to pronounce HIS FREAKIN' NAME.
