Glamberace Is Not The New Freddie Mercury

There's a hurtful, soul-murdering rumor going around that's making staches frown and rhinestones cry. The Daily Star, an esteemed British journal that tops The Daily Mail as the most reputable news source in the world, has threatened all of us by publishing a story today that claims Glamberace will screech his nipples off as the new leader singer of Queen. The quote they used from Glamberace has been scientifically proven to cause a bitch to slowly wall slide while letting out a silent cry of noooooooos.

"The intention is to pay tribute to Freddie and the band by singing some fucking great songs. It's to keep the music alive for the fans and give it an energy that Freddie would've been proud of."

Don't fall against the wall just yet, because apparently The Daily Star lifted this quote from a press conference for the 2011 MTV EMAs. Glamberace performed with Queen at the EMAs that year. Queen's label, Hollywood Records, told Rolling Stone that Glambace is not slipping into Freddie Mercury's latex ass huggers, but he might perform with them for one or two dates:

"The Daily Star item only mentions that Adam may perform with Queen at Sonisphere. This is not confirmed. Nothing has been signed. However, if this were to happen, Queen would be returning to the setting of their final concert with Freddie Mercury, which took place in 1986."

So put a handful of glitter in your mouth and exhale out a glittery sigh of relief, because we've just dodged THE WORST THING THAT WOULD'VE EVER HAPPENED TO MUSIC!!!!!! Okay, okay, maybe I'm turning on the dramatic cunt theatrics, but blame it on the humidifier next to me. You know what smoky vapors do to me. It makes me type in a Phantom of the Opera voice and just makes me EXTRA dramatic.

The truth is, Queen has been touring for years ever since Freddie Mercury floated up to the giant Spandex spool in the sky and I've seen them about as many times as I've eaten broccoli without mayo on top. ZERO! And how many times would I see them if Adam Lambert sang with them? ZERO! So this doesn't really affect my ass. But you know, I'd probably pull myself away from the lure of my humidifier to see Queen if Christopher Lambert (as The Highlander) sang lead.

Queen is an enormously interesting musical act. Freddie is actually an Iranian Indian born Farrokh Bulsara and an English Subject. He was classically trained in piano and voice from age 7. He also graduated from college in London with a degree in Art and Graphic Design.
_______________________________________________

One correction: Freddie wasn't Iranian Indian. He was a Parsi Indian, born in Zanzibar (making him an English subject). His parents were Indians from Gujarat. I think often times people get Parsi and Persian mixed up. Parsi is the Indian way of saying Zoroastrian, possibly because Zoroastrianism came from Persia, but as far as I've read, his parents were pretty much Indian through and through.

The truth is, Queen has been touring for years ever since Freddie Mercury floated up to the giant Spandex spool in the sky.

UM.....Freddie died in 1991 and Queen has toured ONE TIME without him since....but don't let facts get in the way of a non-story.

Well said. I ♥Queen♥ & ♥♥Freddie♥♥, but also like Adam and his persona on stage. Never watched American Idol, so not talking about that. Said it already, no one would dream of replacing Freddie, Adam and others, should be allowed to sing if the band members have extended an invitation!! Queen wants to perform and people want to watch them!:D

While I love Queen and agree that no one can replace Freddie...Adam Lambert is one talented bitch! Seriously. I listen to his album all the time and not only are his songs fun, his voice is amazing, so amazing that I've forgiven him for that terrible performance from that awards show a few years ago. I think Adam is very tongue in cheek with the makeup and costumes, I don't think he takes it too seriously. So if loving Adam is wrong, I don't want to be right. Hahaha :)

Every time Freddie Mercury is mentioned, I think about the opening segment of this performance of Live Aid where he interacts with the crowd:

Really, Ka? Then I guess you never saw a production of We Will Rock You, one of the worst, most egregious examples of a "jukebox" musical (or any kind of musical) ever, that took the Queen canon and shat all over it and was completely endorsed and glorified by Brian May.

Better they would have sold a song to some corporation to use for a commercial than to bilk the fans out of hard earned cash to sit through that massive tripe that was constructed for no other reason than to line the songwriters' pockets with cash.

Reading through these comments makes me sad. I'm guessing no one posting here has ever met Adam Lambert? He is an incredibly talented, warm, and giving person. Have you ever heard him sing? If you don't like him because he is gay, that is one thing but to say he can't sing is just delusional. Maybe you should listen to him sing with Queen, or you tube him singing on Broadway for the Ten Commandments or Wicked. Queen has already asked him to sing with them once and he did an awesome job and it will most likely happen again as he is very talented. And under the make up is a stunning looking guy.

Doing this to Queen would be like having Justin Beiber fill in for John Lennon with the Beatles.. shit is just wrong on every level.

Just because this poseur sucks dick it does not elevate him to the level of Freddie Mercury.

One thing most people don't realize about Queen is that they were run by a corporation for years. The band themselves were only one face of it. "QUEEN" became such a massive money making venture, so many livelihoods were bound up in it, that to leave it to four artistic sorts, money-minded as some of them might have been, would have been foolish, given that they didn't get along so well and all had pretty massive egos.

So, to put Glamberace at the front makes some sense, just in terms of trying to squeeze more money from the brand - and the band members wanting to relive their glory days by any means necessary. And who could blame them, really?

Hotmami, thanks for posting. I remember him looking so frail at the very end. It was so sad!:( But, he is beloved still and his legacy lives on. It's not hard to understand why his bandmates want to keep playing the music forevah!

LOL!!! Ugn, ugn, ugn.. take that bitch, you like that?! Ugn... ohhhhhhh... yeeaaahhh... so tight.

I love Glamberace, but I was screaming a huge haaaaayl no when I first heard this.

I once saw something written by Freddie's partner about the last months of his life. I was in tears by the end...very touching. He was loved enormously.

Charlie, thanks for sharing that. They are certainly an interesting group of band members. It's always a surprise when musicians/actors turn out to be so academically gifted on top of the talents they already have.

mk, the reason you have never been to a queen concert or care is because you were still shuffling around grade school when then last played.

Not a Queen fan, but I can see why one might be annoyed at the thought of this idol twink being anywhere near it.

And I think the singing competition shows are definitely not helping the state of music.

Sorry, but there tons of people who make it past Beyonce as 'The worst thing that has happened to music'...Ke$sha, lana del ray, lots. Anyway, this is great news, cause no way could this poseur take the place of the great Freddie Mercury!

Freddie Mercury is irreplaceable. NO ONE would ever try to take his place, they'd just be keeping his spot warm. But I like Glambert's personality, so good as any in my book, since Freddie isn't here. And like MK, THE NEWS DOES NOT MAKE "me type in a Phantom of the Opera voice" while I shout CATASTROOOOOOOPHE!!! HAhahaahHAHAHAAHA

Queen was unique and could only exist in tribute to itself. I guess that's okay if it's what the fans and the band want. They should be above that, in my opinion. It never works when the singer is the missing person and they are a better band than Van Halen, for example, and should bot take the Lynyrd Skynyrd route.

It's hard because the band wants to play and people want to hear it, and I can see why they can't respect the casual fan's wishes that they would stay frozen in time. Queen can't be anything than the four original members though.
