CELEBRITY REPORT
Rami Malek explains how he dug
so deep to find Freddie Mercury
Rami Malek says he identified with the
immigrant side of Freddie Mercury while
tackling the role of the legendary Queen
frontman.
The first-generation American spoke
about his starring role at the New York pre
miere of “Bohemian Rhapsody” on Tues
day. The “Mr. Robot” star connected with
Mercury’s outsider passion for success.
“I set out to be an actor some, I don’t
know, over a decade ago. I think something
was possibly burning inside the both of us.
We had aspirations to live our dream. And
I’m getting a chance to do that right now in
this very moment,” Malek said.
While many aspects defined Mercury,
including being one of the best vocalists to
front a rock band, his flamboyant presence
and a penchant for taking chances, Malek
felt like he had to dig deeper to find the
beating heart of the Tanzania-born Mer
cury, who arrived in London at 18.
“In some way he became the Freddie
Mercury superstar that overcame every
obstacle imaginable to be the guy that we
all know can command the stage, and hold
us in the palm of his hand like no other,”
Malek said. “My family is from Egypt. I’m
a first-generation American. And somehow
I thought there were strings that I could
tether together with him.”
Malek’s performance has more than
impressed fans; it has impressed members
of the band too. Current Queen lead singer
Adam Lambert even feels the resemblance
between the two is uncanny.
“I love the heart that he brings to the
role, the sensitivity. I love that the music
of this band affects people in a way. And I
know it firsthand, you know, being on tour
with them for the past six years,” Lambert
said.
“You play one of these hit songs and
just watching the audience light up and
go through all their nostalgia and all of
their memories that they’ve shared over
this piece of music and they knew every
word and they’re laughing and they’re cry
ing and they’re dancing. That’s what you
want, it really unites people. So I think the
film is going to have that power as well,”
Lambert said.
And Malek has also captivated guitarist
Brian May, who says the actor’s perfor
mance, “suspends disbelief.”
“You believe he’s Freddie,” May said.
Mike Myers, known for head-banging
to “Bohemian Rhapsody” in his own film
“Wayne’s World,” has an ironic cameo
playing a record executive who tries to tell
the band nobody will play the song on the
radio.
“I spent so hard fighting to get ‘Bohe
mian Rhapsody’ into ‘Wayne’s World’ that
I thought there was unbelievable irony, and
such a crazy honor,” Myers said.
Andrea Bocelli teams up
with his son for new duet
Italian star tenor Andrea Bocelli has
teamed up with singers like Luciano Pava
rotti, Placido Domingo and Ed Sheeran
for acclaimed duets during his career, but
singing with his son Matteo is something he
hopes feels extra special.
“I hope it is a beautiful and enjoyable
moment for anyone who listens to it,”
Bocelli said in an interview last week.
“Fall on Me” appears on the maestro’s
new album “Si,” released last week. The
song, which reflects on the bond between
parent and child, also appears in the new
Disney film “The Nutcracker and the Four
Realms,” starring Keira Knightley, Morgan
Freeman, Mackenzie Foy and Helen Mir
ren. It opens in U.S. theaters Friday.
Bocelli, 60, and 21-year-old Matteo have
sung many times together at home, so
recording together did not feel strange,
the veteran singer said. Matteo is studying
music and likes to experiment with opera,
pop and a combination of both — two genres
his father has been extremely successful at.
“Matteo needs to finish his studies to be a
serious singer. When you go to the doctor or
to see a lawyer, you expect to find a serious
professional. The same goes for singers,”
said Bocelli, seated next to a smiling Mat
teo. “But Matteo has shown he has a gift. He
has something you don’t learn.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The best people to be around
aren’t the ones who nag you to
be different; they are the ones
who make you want to be better
by modeling a different way of
being.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Sometimes you’re the appren
tice, and sometimes you’re the
master. To help another person
give life to their dreams is a gift
to you as well, and vice versa.
The roles are interchangeable
and equal.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). What
you learn today will light your
way. Tomorrow will be better
because of it. If there’s some
waiting around or a little stress,
it’s par for the course. Life is on
track. Things are getting better.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Many appreciate what you do.
Not everyone. The ones who get
it really get it. Those are the ones
you’re aiming your best efforts
toward. Keep company with
those who uplift.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll
solve the problem by thinking
less and feeling more. Imagine
yourself as a coral-like receptor,
with the ocean flowing around
and through you. As you move
in response, how can it be any
thing but right?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There
are a few dynamics at play that
are no longer ideal for you, to
say the least. You can always
make a change. That’s an op
tion you have; you just have to
decide to take it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). To have
an awareness of your shadow
side is a start. But to know that
your shadow is actually just the
flip side of the best that’s in you
is the golden ticket to success.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Don’t
underestimate the detrimental
impact of too much serious
ness. A deficit of fun is a drain on
vitality. It may not be noticeable
at first, but letting the levels get
too low puts all that’s good in
jeopardy.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You won’t forget your manners.
You almost never do, and that
is among the reasons you’ll be
chosen for today’s task, which
calls for someone who can be
reliably polite.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
There are a few options on the
table, one of which seems
particularly appealing if not for
the fact that it will take a very
long time to realize. Don’t let
that deter you. The time will
pass no matter what you’re
doing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Nothing develops a person
quite like traveling. And you
needn’t go far. Even a visit in
side the next-door neighbor’s
house will fortify you. The
important part is that you learn
about others. Ask questions.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If
silliness is a skill, it’s an
important one. People need
silliness. It takes a certain
amount of confidence to risk
being seen as foolish. And it
involves an instinct for
guessing what will make the
other person laugh.
