SPONGE BOB SQUARE PANTS DAVID BOWIE



David Bowie is set to star in cartoon series 'Sponge Bob Square Pants'.The music legend begged bosses to let him voice a part for the children's animated show because his six-year-old daughter, Alexandria, is a big fan.The 59-year-old wrote on his internet blog: "At last, I've hit the Holy Grail of animation gigs."Bowie will play the role of Lord Royal Highness in a new special episode. SpongeBob is a friendly sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea, with his pet snail Gary. This is not the first time Bowie has worked with fantastical creatures.The 'Heroes' singer starred in Jim Henson's 1986 cult classic 'Labyrinth', as Jareth, the king of the goblins. Wearing heavy make-up and singing several songs specially written for the film, he appeared alongside a teenage Jennifer Connelly - who went on to win an Oscar in 2003 for her role in 'A Beautiful Mind'.
