Freddie Mercury

"I WANTED TO BE THE RUDOLF NUREYEV OF ROCK AND ROLL”

Freddie’s mercurial creativity and love of showmanship knew no bounds and his solo videos gave us some iconic looks. “Most of the stuff I do is pretending. It’s like acting… I go on stage and pretend to be a macho man and all those things. I think The Great Pretender is a great title for what I do because I am The Great Pretender! In my videos I go through all the different characters and I’m pretending again."

Which is your favourite look?
