Freddie Mercury was so secretive about his sexuality that even his Queen band members were left in the dark

While it's commonly accepted now that legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury was gay, it was a fact that was much less obvious during the singer's prime
UPDATED NOV 30, 2018

Rami Malek has rightly earned plaudits for his possibly Oscar-worthy performance as Queen frontman Freddie Mercury in musical biopic 'Bohemian Rhapsody,' but many have taken issue to how the singer's often controversial lifestyle was watered down so the feature could be released with a PG-13 tag.

If the rumors are to be believed, it was this "creative difference" that resulted in Sacha Baron Cohen walking out of the project in 2013. However, when you take a stroll through Mercury's life, you come to realize the sexuality of the iconic frontman — although a hot topic today — was not an open secret during the early part of his career.
