LOL.... Charlie Chaplin in "A KING IN NEW YORK".... what a great, bitter film. It's a shame he had to make A Countess From Hong Kong with Brando. Doing everything himself would have been much better.
That said, he doesn't look much like Freddie. Well, **except for the pose... he's "King Shadov" [as in SOD OFF]" performing HAMLET in that scene.
I think Freddie would have been a porker by now. (as in fat) .... probably like Elton John.

I'm wondering if anyone has ever made a photo manip of how Freddie would look today if he were still with us? Here is my idea.
Happy Birthday, Fred.
Not bad. Kinda like an aging Indian guy. I can see him pulling off that look. Just without the T Shirts.... he would have surely ugraded to something more "glamorous". (his word not mine)

Also - he wouldn't have gotten his teeth fixed. He didn't have to. They didn't stop him from having more sex than the entire African continent, or making more money than God. When you're that successful, you should keep your munted teeth just to say 'fuck you' to anyone who thinks they need fixing! :D ------------------------------------------------------------ Spot On. :P

I think he would be in great shape. His hair was kind of thinning in the crown area, but that's a common problem with double crowned people. I don't think hair loss would have progressed significantly, but it if id did, hair transplant procedure is a very common and effective solution today.
I see him looking somewhat similar to George Balanchine when he was in his 60's. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Balanchine

I think he would of looked absolutely great. Both his sister and even his mom look great - good genes! The thinning hair could of been due to illness, but still as someone pointed out - it all could of been fixed up as it nowadays.
One aging singer who's pushed the plastic surgery button once too often is Barry Mannilow. He's looking a bit stretched these days and artificial.

shaved head and beard - youve just described rob halfords modern look. not as scary as his 1986 blonde receding mullet.
i think freddie would have allowed himself to age. noone should look like david coverdale does now...

I think Freddie would have lost his hair around the mid ninties but would go for a hair transplant/weave.
Can imagine him with with a goatee look and for him to age pretty well.

@AKOM76: That is so good it's scary. I think this is how I'd like to picture him at 65.

I don't think Freddie would have lost his hair completely. He didn't really start thinning until his late 30s/early 40s. Generally guys who do this don't go completely bald. Many just go into a state of permanent thinning. He's still have had hair, I reckon, but perhaps with a bit of a larger forehead.

That's brilliant...except I don't think Freddie's nose would have gotten smaller C: I like this rendition, though. Also, why does everyone seem to think Freddie will grow a beard? He's never had one before...

You being serious? Check out the back sleeve of the debut LP. Then check the videos for The Miracle, Scandal, Breakthru and Headlong. Look very, very closely at Freddie's beard. Once you've done that, come back and tell us your findings.
