300m album sales, £85m in the bank - but can you name this low profile rock legend who now wears sensible anoraks and grey trousers?
Reclusive former Queen bass player John Deacon pictured out in London
Deacon, 64, wrote some of band's biggest hits and is now worth £85million
But he looked far cry from flamboyantly-dressed figure who rose to fame

But actually he isn`t happy with the situation they caught him.

It would be really great news if the UK press leaves him alone! It´s his life and it´s the way he has choosen to live it.

Shame. Maybe he'll stop buying the Mail now.

What's his prize for carrying a copy of the Daily Mail and saying the following words to the reporter: "piss off with your intrusiveness" ? :-)

I've gone right off him if he buys The Daily Mail.
I don't know what their point is about his attire and boring grey trousers.....at the very height of the band's success he was still wearing tanktops!!

Could It be he's concerned with the Rock In Rio event???????????!!! OMERGOSSSH!!!
jk.
Funny though.... John walks wearily down the street..... (MAD LIBS)
....with his hair lost long ago?
...his tan line lost long ago?
...with his mail wherever he goes?
...where's his bass? nobody knows
...
I dunno.
maybe it sucks to be him, but I DO enjoy seeing his pictures now and then. Can't help love the guy, though I've never met him.
These f####ers wrote some music that engaged and captivated me in my teens to keep me sorta sane.
Can't say I owe them enough. Good to see John, even though he looks as if he's almost harrassed

As much as I like to see he's well and all that. I also want people to stop stalking him and taking photos of him.

Still, it doesn't happen all that often. This is only the second unsolicited photographing that's been published, isn't it? (If we count the three or so from the previous instance as one occurrence).

The Daily Heil stalking John, putrid.

Scummy press stalkers, had he not had a copy of that rag under his arm i think the Daily Mail would of done some nasty story, the fella just wants to be left alone, i still think he keeps an eye in secret on what is going on in with Queen criticizing Bri and Rog maybe haa

Yeah everyone knows the DM only serves one function - it comes into play when you're out of toilet paper. But they hardly 'stalk' him often, do they? Probably the only time there's been an article completely about him since he was caught with a stripper.
I like how the article has gotten thousands of comments though. The more he's been reclusive, the more people are curious about him (and they haven't forgotten him, despite him being the least well-known Queen member).

The DM gets more hits than any other 'newspaper' on earth. Says more about the general public than the publication, that is why they keep doing what they do.... It has got thousands of comments? Just encouraging them to intrude, which makes people click...... the most vicious of circles....
