Freddie Mercury (real name  Frederick Farookh Bulsara), lead singer of the legendary rock band Queen, died of AIDS at only 45 years of age on November 24th, 1991. How tragic! It was alleged that Freddie Mercury had homosexual lovers all around the world.
On the anniversary of the Queen singer's death in 1991, Clash presents 10 things you never knew about Freddie Mercury. As the flamboyant front man of Queen, Freddie Mercury toyed with hedonism amidst making timeless songs, which leaves plenty ammunition for these little tidbits... Even his official passport read âFrederick Mercuryâ, despite the fact that his birth name was Farrokh Bulsara. Calling him anything but Freddie would not be well received, however - he started using the name âFreddieâ prior to ever arriving in England, and âMercuryâ when Queen first started.
