Seems Rami Malek didn’t quite sing the Freddie Mercury bits in the movie, but lip synced to a mix of himself+some impersonator 🤔 And more confusingly the soundtrack album is apparently all Queen originals. I thought Hollywood didn’t approve of this and considered it cheating?

Particularly ironic give that the script featured an anti-lipsync scene, to show Freddie and Queen as morally grounded and authentic. Otoh, it was a great movie, so means justify the ends?

Poll: What is the one claim regarding "authenticity" that you would most willingly give up... How many more pseudo-scandals of the "A didn't sing X" variety do we have to endure?
