Brian May could not be happier with Adam Lambert fronting Queen and he’s not afraid to let critics know.
The Queen guitarist continues to defend their new singer, who fills the shoes of the late Freddie Mercury, joining the iconic band back in 2011.
“Adam can do all the stuff that Freddie did and more. It doesn’t matter what you throw at Adam — he can do it,” May revealed to Guitar World.
Defending against charges that the former American Idol contestant is a replacement for Mercury, May notes, “He’s a born exhibitionist. He’s not Freddie, and he’s not pretending to be him, but he has a parallel set of equipment.”
