Mercury of the legendary band Queen, passed away in 1991,  at the age of 45, of a complication of AIDS. Mercury denied his illness to the press for many years, only offering a statement a day before he passed

away. His statement reportedly read:

“Following the enormous conjecture in the press over the last two weeks, I wish to confirm that I have been tested HIV positive and have AIDS. I felt it correct to keep this information private to date to protect the privacy of those around me. However, the time has come now for my friends and fans around the world to know the truth and I hope that everyone will join with me, my doctors, and all those worldwide in the fight against this terrible disease. My privacy has always been very special to me and I am famous for my lack of interviews. Please understand this policy will continue.”
The band Queen first formed in 1971 in London. The band included Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon and Roger Taylor. With their release of albums Sheer Heart Attack and A Night at the Opera, they would become a household name around the globe and go on to release 18 number one albums and 18 number one singles. Some of their best known songs include “We Will Rock You” and “We Are the Champions” from News of the World.

 The One and Only QUEEN Is Back on September 5th
All hail Queen.

The compulsion to express one’s need to be understood is what propels the performer. Through masks, costumes, and characters, the stage becomes a magic carpet on which dreams become realities and realities become dreams.  Or as Michael Jackson sang, “the lie becomes the truth”. Which is the philosophy behind KATWALK. And Freddie Mercury embodied this.

 

Freddie Mercury, who would have turned 65 this September, influenced every stage drama Queen of today. And with the release of Queen’s 5 last albums this September, we’re compelled to put things in perspective.

When artists postulate on their harsh struggles (respect), recall the late and great singer-performer-songwriter Freddie Mercury, whose journey began when he was born a Parsi, Zorastrian in Zanzibar, Tanzania, moving to India then England as a teenager, and alas died of bronchopneumonia brought on by  AIDS 1991, one day after publicly acknowledging he had the disease.And in between became arguable the greatest rock singer, songwriter and performer of all time
