If someone manages to attain a splendid physique once, it remains marked as a milestone in the history of bodybuilding. This sport expresses admiration for all the trophy-like bodies, just like any other form of art, and pays tribute to those who trained themselves to craft it. Dorian Yates holds the title of six-time Mr Olympia consecutively. Besides winning contests, he has left the world full of exemplary body statements from his peak career days.
The bodybuilding legend’s Pro-debut had called for a professional photo shoot. Yates talks about his encounter with a Blondie member that very night.

In his recent Instagram post, Dorian brings back an old memory from the past. In 1990, shortly after his debut at Night of Champions, he was taken to the Better Bodies Gym in New York for a professional photography session. He wrote in the caption of the post, “Whilst I was at Better Bodies Gym, I actually met Debbie Harry from the rock band Blondie, who was every boys crush back then! So that was a great moment too!”

Debbie Harry, the lead vocalist of the famous rock band Blondie, surely had the charms to win millions of hearts. Dorian’s comment, “That was a great moment too!” raises quite a few eyebrows, allegedly keeping him on her fan list.
The year 1990 was a very crucial one in Yates’s life. He had worked extensively on himself to make his pro debut a success. The recorded photo from back then also attests to the same justification.
