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.” Associated Press AROUND TOWN WEATHER Gainesville 5-Day Forecast #AccuWeather download the free app TODAY TONIGHT FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY MONDAY Showers and Plenty of clouds t-storms A morning t-storm Mostly sunny Clouds and sun A thick cloud cover HIGH: 68 c LOW: 59° 63743° 62743° 61748° 61758° RFT: 59° I RFT: 63°/39° | RFT: 64740° | I RFT: 62°/45° | I RFT: 62750° | Precip chance: Precip chance: Precip chance: Precip chance: Precip chance: Precip chance: 65% 25% 55% 5% 15% 25% RFT: The patented AccuWeather.com RealFeel Temperature® is an exclusive index of effective temperature based on eight weather factors.

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.
