David Bowie’s Famous Scene From The Movie Zoolander [Video]

David Bowie has played many roles in film over the years, but his stand in as a judge in Zoolander will never be forgotten.

Perhaps you remember the first time you ever watched Zoolander. I sure do. Complete with the Library for Ants, the blue steal and brainwashing techniques, every scene had its glory. Yet, if you were down with the way of the Bowie before his untimely death, you might have been pleasantly surprised with his cameo in the movie.

It’s deemed as one of his most memorable, in which Bowie, playing himself, acts as the impartial judge for a walk-off between Derek Zoolander and Hansel.

Introducing himself in the most Bowie way, when the pair of models request a judge, Bowie emerges from the crowd, whips off his sunglasses and says, to a chorus of gasps:

 I believe I might be of service.

Please enjoy.
