I feel sad for him that people didnt just let him get on with his personal life. The journalist there says he's dissapointed in Freddie for not coming out and helping young men like him, but you know, why should he? And he was probably thinking of his family also. I know it was a different time but still, he was a nice guy, giving the world his talent, why did he have to aknowledge what went on behind closed doors?
You really realise how young he was when he died when you see that pretty much everyone who was close to him is still well alive and kicking to this day. So sad.
@Robin360 Lung Cancer is an opprotunistic infection/disease of people who have advanced HIV lol. Jim had HIV ever since the 80s. he lived 20 years with HIV/AIDS. You didn't know he had got it from Freddie? Freddie got it from Nicholai Groshinovich, and gave it to him, kenny everett, and pepe. But yeah..jim died of AIDS and the disease that killed him was cancer.
Freddie was gay. Completely. Not bi (though earlier there were girls). He had no problem with it, but did not publicly announce it. Put it this way: Everyone who knew him knew he was gay and that was ok, but the public speculated. However, only he knew that he had AIDS and his friends speculated.
he was bi but with a preference to men. he had a short fling with barbara valentin. but if a man flutter their eyelids at him he would always go that way.
Hey people could you please tell me what Freddie says about being honest? I'm not a native speaker. So intresting to know if he really admits of being gay. Too fast for me to understand...( 4:24
I used to read he'd never agreed to the fact of his homosexuality.
he says "maybe i have a wider sexual taste than most people, but thats a far as i want to go to actually sort of come out with saying im gay, is to be honest, a bit beneath me"
what he means by "beneath him" is - it was his business & he didnt see the need to get into a messy debate or perpetuate any tabloid discussion which would only seek to destroy his charachter & personal life - thats what it kinda meant
I read somewhere it was Elton John. It said also that he was pissed off about it and backstage he told freddie something like great show but fcuk you for doing it before my turn...
Freddie's sexuality was his own damn business. Yes, it might have been helpful if he had been 'out' as a role model, but maybe he just didn't want to confine himself in that way. After all, the love of his life was a woman - even if their sexual relationship was not a long-term thing. I don't really care who he slept with. It's not important - his music is!
That journalist Jivani and other people should respect that Freddie wanted to keep his private life private. If it was the record company who was behind it, I agree it's a shame, but in the end people should just mind their own buisness. Freddie's sexuality was and is irrelevant to the public, the music is what matters
sei il più grande di tutti non per la voce non per le note magiche che ci regali ma per l'immensa persona che sei, thank you greatest man of everytime
Great documentary of Freddie. Hardly a day goes by I don't hear a popular song on the radio and think of how much better Freddie would have sang it lol. I do, however, take some comfort in knowing that television in the UK is similar to that in the US: 5 minutes of programming, 5 minutes of adverts...
This was made over a year ago , and a first attempt. The adverts are there to stay as so many have fav this video removing it and uploading it would lose alot of connection. Get faster speed internet.
don't sell depp short. he's a fairly remarkable actor. i also heard he wanted to play jaco pastorius. (bytheway, wherever did you hear anything about depp playing freddie?)
yeah,I'll say! I mean,mr depp is a very successful actor and he would act freddie mercury successfully,but,I completely agree with what you said.
freddie mercury is irreplecable. I am sure johnny depp thinks the same way,too.But this would just kill some undescribable things about the magical legend of freddie mercury.
Johny Deep should act him in the movie...If you look closely he has eyes like freddie....a lot of things. But Borat (Sacha Coehn) will be playng him :(
Actual, on multiple sites the FMB is debated on who will fill those shoes. Cohen has relased denile and other sources say Depp is in talks. Hopefully by the time "Sweeney Todd" is released we'll know! Deep for Mercury '08!
People keep moaning about the adverts, im getting sick of people on here moaning, my first attempt if dont like it, dont watch it getting sick of removing trolls. Not got the time ill remove the vidoes
I hate how people get so worked up about Freddie's sex life. If he was gay, then he was gay. Big whoopdeedo. Get over yourselves and concentrate on his music. He was so talented, is it really worth worrying about his personal life. I hate to break it to you, but it's none of your business.
The people in this documentary. Well, I actually wasn't directing it at anyone in particular. I'm just sick of hearing about how Freddie was gay, etc. ect., you know? It just makes me mad.
Yeah I can understand that I look more towards his music, But I feel this documentary is a nice collection of his life and that's why I uploaded it. Try not to look to much in to it and see his life story which is in this documentary as well.
oh freddy we miss you soo much we did you have to go?
you were just the best...but i don't think you were ''the great pretender'' you were brave enough to tell everyone that you were gay and that's just awesome. WE'LL NEVER FORGET YOU
I guess this is the one that didn't turn out so good...Because it talked more about Freddie's parties, sexual life and promiscuity which is not what should be celebrated about such a great man... But, I haven't watched the whole thing, so how am I to know? And that's just what I've heard from BM.com...
Beautiful video quality, thanks very much for uploading it RecordedtvUK.
No I could not I am new to this I and I cut and compressed it in Windows Movie Maker, it splits all the movies in to sections not sure how to cut bits out. But you're the only person who has moaned about the adverts I have had a lot of thanks for uploading this, so it's not bad for a first attempt. All I can say don't watch it again and you should hope someone uploads it without the adverts. Can see you added as a favorite through cant be that bad.

Why is his sexuality so important to you guys?
Because of people like you he had to hide the truth. 18 years after his death people still discuss his sexuality instead of his musical genius.
And because of people like you even today homo- and bisexual people feel uncomfortable talking freely about it.
