Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Brian May has described Adam Lambert as a ''gift from god'' for Queen and he believes late frontman Freddie Mercury would have appreciated his singing talents.

The 33-year-old star teamed up with Queen in 2014 to play live shows in place of late frontman Freddie - who tragically died in 1994 at the age of just 45.
Brian admits Adam has been a ''gift from god'' for the band bringing his own unique style to Queen's classic songs and he thinks even Freddie would accept he's a phenomenal singer.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour Awards, the guitarist said: ''Adam is a phenomenon, you just have to watch him. We didn't look for him, we never looked for anyone to replace Freddie ever, the thing with Paul Rodgers happened very naturally. Adam just came out of the blue, I call him the 'GFG' because he's like a gift from God! It was like, 'Where the f**k did he come from?' He's just incredible and he's not a copy of Freddie, he's very much his own man and brings his style to it. He has a unique combination of confidence and humility, and he as the magic touch which means he can resonate with an audience. And his voice is beyond belief I think even Freddie would be saying that.''
