Blondie icon Debbie Harry, 79, has shared a candid anecdote about her recent flirtation at a Home Depot. In a new interview with The Sunday Times, Harry revealed her choice of location for engaging with potential partners, specifically highlighting the "big, strong men" working in the garden department.
Harry described a suggestive encounter with a worker at the US home improvement store, noting, "I found somebody there I thought was really sexy. He was working in the garden department. But he was busy." The interaction, she explained, was limited to a mutual exchange of glances.
This anecdote comes as Harry remains single, following her separation from former Blondie bandmate and collaborator Chris Stein in 1987. When asked about her dating prospects, Harry jokingly responded, "No! God forbid! I'm terrified." She then admitted to a potential interest in online dating, and after some prompting was convinced to check out the celebrity dating app, Raya.
"I had a friend who was an avid practitioner of online dating and she met a terrific guy," she said. "But I don't know if I'm in the right position to be dating online."
Beyond her personal life, Harry recently celebrated Blondie's resurgence, with the band enjoying a successful UK tour and performing at Glastonbury Festival 2023. Reflecting on the journey, Harry expressed amusement, stating that her younger self would have been critical of her continued career.
This interview provides a glimpse into the multifaceted life of a rock icon, showcasing both personal reflections and a continued commitment to her career.
