Katy Price could never be described as a shrinking violet!
She's someone people either love or hate. I'm very much in the latter category. But on Saturday she did manage to attract my attention and make me smile.
A bit like car-crash TV perhaps but Katy Price 'dancing' to "I want to Break Free" in the style of the original Queen Video!
First Let me give you the original by Queen I'd be happy to stop there!
But, alas, continue I must...
So, for comparison the Katy Price's version...
Inspired. (This from a lifelong fan who hates covers) A woman playing a man dressed as a woman, with no attempt at realism! The movement was completely wrong... there were inaccuracies from the original video...
But somehow it didn't matter.
No! What struck me was...
How visually convincing she is as Freddie!
Don't believe me?
Take a closer look at my caricature of Katy...
There, told you!
So, do you have any suggestions for celebrity lookalikes?
And no cheating! They have to be celebrities who look like other celebrities!
Well, as promised, here is the late great Freddie Mercury. I've gone for an earlier image, I always preferred him with long hair. I still can't make my mind up about the spotlights. Apart from not being round, a matter which will probably result in some tweaking later, and I know how! I'm still not sure whether the sun ray effect is working. I think I'm going to have to sleep on it and review the situation in the morning.
I'm probably not going to be posting much over the next couple of days as I've got a commission! I'm very excited about it, but details will have to wait until I can publish them without ruining the surprise. There is always the possibility, however slim, that one of the potential recipients will see the image before they receive it, and that's not right!
