Sacha Baron Cohen to play Freddie Mercury? Sacha Baron Cohen will play Freddie Mercury in a big screen adaptation of Freddie Mercury's life, it has been claimed. The Borat and Ali G comedian has apparently been approached about taking on the role of the iconic star, as producers beginning casting for the movie. Borat's image and looks were apparently inspired by the Queen singer and Baron Cohen is said to have been chosen ahead of Johnny Depp for the part. An "insider" said: "Film makers are working flat out to get the best possible script. Sacha loves the idea he can get away with playing Freddie after modelling Borat's look on him." Freddie Mercury died in 1991 at the age of 45 after losing his battle against an AIDS-related illness. |
Elton John performs free Aids awareness gig in Ukraine Elton John has performed a free open air concert in Ukraine to promote HIV-Aids awareness. The star played in front of an audience of 200,000 people in the main square of the capital Kiev for the country's biggest ever show on live TV. The event had earlier stirred up controversy among religious groups who urged Ukranians to boycott the event branding it "blasphemous". They also accused the singer of trying to promote a gay lifestyle. President Viktor Yushchenko also attended the gig which saw free condoms handed out along with leaflets on HIV testing and counselling centres at the start. During the show, the singer told the crowd that he would do all he could to help Ukraine in its battle against the disease. According to the country's Anti-Aids Foundation, Ukraine has one of the highest HIV infection rates in Europe with a new case every 10 minutes, reports BBC News. |
