celebs who played rock stars sacha baron cohen

Queen is one of my all-time favorite bands and I can't wait to see a flick that delves deeper into Freddie's life. That man is an icon. An icon, dammit! I hope the film features Sacha singing "Somebody to Love" ... in a spandex body suit. I'd probably be so excited I'd get on my bike and ride. [Huffington Post]
