Freddie was a private person and a sensitive brilliant man who kept his opinions on religion, sexuality and politics to himself and didn't abuse his platform like the egomaniacal entertainers of today. There will never be another mega talented and class act like Freddie Mercury.

My favorite video was "I want to break free". Absolutely LOVE it! I remember when mtv banned it but it didn't last long. True American fans got it and loved it... still do to this day! RIP Freddie 🙏 We love and miss you ❤

Freddie, was a genius!! A musician, writer, opera singer,charismatic extremely sexy handsome man, and above all he was funny. His personal life is nobody’s business. His was an imposing figure on stage and “I Still Love You!” The greatest Legend in the world forever. Thank you Freddie for all your hard work in giving your fans a party every time you performed. So very missed and still loved. RIP darling, sing with the Angels. ❤❤😢😢💔💔

Sadly, I didn’t really discover FREDDY MERCURY until I was 70 yrs old. Prior to that, although I recognized the big stadium hits like WE WILL ROCK YOU and Bohemian Rhapsody, I wasn’t big into Rock bands. When the movie about Queen came out is when I discovered FREDDY. THEN, I FELL IN LOVE . I deeply regret that I never saw QUEEN live when they came to NY. I ADORE THE BAND AND I ADORE FREDDY MERCURY. I CANT GO A DAY WITHOUT LISTENING TO QUEEN.

Completely agree- while he never denied or hid his sexual preference he was also an intensely private person who did not want to talk about or discuss his private life because it was just that- private. As you hear from those very close to him he was never ashamed of who he was he lived his life his way but he was never interested in becoming some political icon or pin up figure either. It was always about the music, the band and the fans that was what he loved talking about and he gave everything to it which is why every single person who was at one of Queens concerts had such mad love for him, the music and the band. He is legendary because of his immense talent that captivated and inspired billions around the world THAT is his legacy and what he wanted to be remembered for and his wishes like his music and achievements should be respected. Love you Freddie ❤

Stop hijacking Freddie's memory and legacy in order to promote your agenda. The man chose to keep his private life just that...... private. If he wanted otherwise, he would have done so himself while alive. And before any of you say he couldn't, remember we're talking about Freddie Mercury. He did whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted, wherever he wanted.

I’ve seen this interview and Brian May not too long ago referenced it that Freddie never hid he was gay. In 1977 he openly said he was gay as a daffodil and another video of him in in interview he calls himself a Persian pomping jay. Facts. He is a legend. Nobody before him had his talent and I highly doubt anyone else in the future will match it. RIP Freddie ❤ I still love you. I hope you and Jim are reunited and happy.

Freddie Mercury was actually showing signs of having HIV as early as 1982. He probably contracted HIV in New York City between 1977-1979. On average symptoms can begin around 3 or 4 years after being infected. He was said to have been very promiscuous. The first people that got HIV/AIDS didn't even know it existed. I miss Freddie Mercury so much. He is my favorite singer and Queen is my favorite band.

Does anyone actually think Freddie Mercury would have joined any group and cried out for sexual orientation? For him it was the most private act ever. Before anyone accuses me of anything, as long as something is done voluntarily / sex of any kind should be OK and not punishable. But to grab one as an organization, and then even a dead one, as a "pioneer" is simply cheeky. An organization that has managed to ridicule its legitimate concern through a large number of actions. Actions that often only stand for carnival for outsiders. So sexual freedom in dictatorships etc. is done a disservice. Freddie Mercury and many others would not be taken in by this organization, at least this ..... "public relations".
