How could it be otherwise, the singer Madonna has taken advantage of his social networks to mourn the death of Nick Kamen and pay tribute to his protégé during the second half of the eighties. The singer and model, who became known in 1985 for his physical work and that angelic face that led him to star in one of the most suggestive ads of the jeans firm Levi’s , has died at 59 years and after a long battle against a disease of which no more details are known.
“It breaks my heart to find out that you are gone. You were always a very sweet and caring human being, and I know you have suffered too much. I hope you are happier wherever you go, Nick Kamen ”, reads the moving message posted by the Queen of pop
on your Instagram profile , to which he has added a photograph of both working in a recording studio, an image that probably dates from the year 1985 or 1990.
It must be remembered that, after the publication of the successful True blue (1986) -one of the most acclaimed and best-selling albums of the diva’s discography-, Madonna
asked the then model oy aspiring singer -which she herself would assure decades later that she had a prodigious and sensitive voice- to record one of the songs, “Each time you break my heart” , which he had to discard from the aforementioned album , even offering to do backing vocals for him.
However, the consecration of Nick Kamen on the record scene, and in the Olympus of those stars whose songs transcend their time to become in timeless classics, it would arrive in 1986, when he published the acclaimed and very romantic “I promised myself” . In that new decade, his spectacular underwear physique still appeared frequently on television, in the mythical and already mentioned advertisement for Levi’s , but his professional profile already stood out mainly for his foray into the genre of melodic song. However, no one could deny that undeniable appeal to which his stage presence, his ravishing smile and his penetrating gaze also contributed.
