Freddie Mercury laughs at Kanye West's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' cover in parody video

There was a lot of talk about Kanye West’s cover of Queen’s "Bohemian Rhapsody” that he performed at Glastonbury this past weekend, mainly Adam Lambert’s poor review of it on Twitter.

Lambert’s opinion holds weight because he has toured with the surviving members of Queen, but a fan’s account of how Freddie Mercury himself would react to it is now going viral.

Billboard reports Sam Valorose, a writer for Q1043.com, created the parody mashup.

The video shows Mercury intently listening to West’s cover before bursting out into laughter then showing him how it’s really done. Clips of West’s famous angry face then appear, showing him getting schooled.

Lambert made his feelings on the cover of the 1975 hit known this week, tweeting, “OYE VEY Kanye. That Bohemian Rhapsody at Glastonbury though.... Ouch.”
