Freddy Mercury’s Lover Dies at Age 60

The gay lover and life partner of the late and great singer  Freddie Mercury passed away last week.  Jim Hutton had lived with former Queen singer and flamboyant Freddie  Mercury for six years prior to the singer’s death from an AIDS-related illness in 1991.

Jim Hutton died at his home on New Year’s Day from complications from the battle he’d been fighting against cancer  in his last few years.   He was aged  60.  Hutton  had  worked as Mercury’s hairdresser and the singer left him  £500,000 and a plot of land in his will.

Jim Hutton had also tested positive for HIV in 1990 but, at the time he kept the news of his status a secret from many including  Mercury himself.   However,  he later told him shortly before the singer passed away.

Hutton was buried on Sunday in Bennekerry, Ireland,  on what would have been his 61st birthday.

Jason Shaw – Brighton, England.

According to Bry’Nt:

The state of hip-hop is in disarray, and is looking for that person that is going to restore true artistry back to the art form. I’m coming to bring what the hip-hop community is lacking, diversity. I plan to take the music industry by storm! Being a Black man, that lives an alternative lifestyle, I’m hoping to change the way the hip-hop community views our world, and bring to light issues that are affecting us all day-to-day.
