Hello all.. I've noticed Freddie's face has been getting fatter during the end of AKOM tour, and music videos from 1986 - 1990. From there it just got "skinny" again. Was it just weight gain? |
| Mr Faron Hyte 13.09.2007 23:37 |
Most likely a side effect from the medication he was taking. |
| Lester Burnham 13.09.2007 23:52 |
To me, he actually seemed "fatter" during the 1984 / 1985 Works tour, though that might have been because he tried to cram himself into pantsuits he hadn't worn since 1977... |

It was amazing how Freddie's head swelled during that short and infamous set. He looked perfectly fine when he took the stage; he belted several memorable tunes, and all was well. Then - horror of horrors! - his face expanded to grotesque proportions. It was a hideous and unmentionable episode, and Freddie was eventually carted from the stage in a wheelbarrow (which bowed from the weight of his obese, swollen features). As for why? Eh, these things happen. |
| mr bad guy 5656 14.09.2007 10:15 |
listen, Freddie was (nearly) 40 years old when Queen did the Magic Tour. To me, he looks just perfect. By the by, I think by the time Queen did the Magic tour Freddie had stopped taking cocaine, so it's not strange he didn't looked extremely sharp anymore. Starting from 1987, he had to take medication and then his face really got swelled up. Take for example a look at the promo-pics for I want it All. I miss that man so much. :-(. |
| MercuryArts 14.09.2007 10:27 |
You could see the fullness of his face on the original Barcalona album cover. First time I saw it, I thought he just gained a bunch of weight. The thought of AIDS wasn't even flash in the general publics mind. Ofcourse four years later we all knew differently. |
| skiqueen 14.09.2007 17:04 |
i think its just that he had a really big, manly, square jaw. it doesnt really look flabby...or maybe i just have to go back and watch wembley more closely.... |

It took them a few days to find him floating around. It wasn't until passengers in a commercial airplane were baffled as to see him hovering near their window, yelling for help. A flight attendant was able to stand on the wing of the airplane without being sucked away from existence, and lassoed him to her. She brought him inside the plane and others aided her in popping his balloon-head. They sowed everything back together and he was back to normal. It was indeed a terrible event. |

Innuendo1990 must be studying Aids in college because he seems obsessed with when Freddie was diagnosed with AIDS, what he was like before he died etc.Why not apply for a job with an undertakers mate! |
