Adam Lambert Queen, BRIAN May has enlisted American pop star Adam Lambert to front Queen for a one-off concert in the UK.

The legendary guitarist has been hinting at a live collaboration with Lambert since he played with the talented singer during his American Idol season in 2009.

Fans have been campaigning for the concert since Lambert performed with May and Roger Taylor to close the MTV Europe awards.

The gig will be a big one, returning to Knebworth where Queen performed for a record crowd of 120,000 people in 1986.

“Judging by my incoming mail, this decision will make a lot of people very happy. It’s a worthy challenge for us, and I’m sure Adam would meet with Freddie’s approval! And what better place to revisit, and walk those emotional paths than Knebworth? It will be a rush,” May said.

For Lambert, performing a full set with Queen is “beautifully surreal”.

“I’m honoured to be able to pay my respects to Freddie’s memory. He’s a personal hero of mine and I am deeply grateful for the chance to sing such powerful music for fans of this legendary band,” he said.
