For The Record
Being gay and having knowledge of 1970s Freddie Mercury is a plus to understanding Fairy. Fans, just for the record .... if any of us are on here doing any of the following about Fairy (like she/her) know these (below) are why... Thank you for being so 'awestruck' and 'impressed', etc. over his/her eerie canny resemblance to (1970s) Freddie Mercury.
"I absolutely love this quote (below) of my beloved idol which would be one of oh so MANY so me being identical to him."
Fairy Mercury
What's the point in being glam if no one can see you glitter?
The ever so elegant satin queen Fairy Mercury looking identical to his idol with erotic glossed lips and eye lined exotic dark eyes.

'When I started photographing Fairy, I made it a point to try to capture erotic shots in order to capture the overly sexual demeanour of the exotic prancer, which his idol (1970s) Freddie Mercury was well known to having possessed as well.'

' I'm causing a mild sensation '
(from Queen's 'My Melancholy Blues' written by Freddie Mercury)
The divine lush creature that is Fairy Mercury looking identical to his beloved idol 1970s Freddie Mercury. Glossed lips under blue spotlights. AHPStudio is a complicated story. Sued for copyright infringement by the exotic prancer's longtime personal photographer Mr. Greg Hastings in 2017.
Flight Of The Fairy
This could aptly be renamed the Queen song 'White Queen (As It Began)' because it outlines Fairy's 'comeback' after the COVID epidemic. Embarking on a 'mini tour' the glam rock 'queen' named 'Flight of the Fairy'. Venues in and around London.
Featuring a special foreword by:
Russian ballet danseur Rudolf Pavlova
Quotes from Fairy's personal photographer viVid Photo Studio's Greg Hastings:
'I am so glad Fairy is back at doing what he lives for and loves - the stage, his aspirations to perform as his beloved idol Freddie Mercury and being live before his adoring fans.'
'As with all the rest of you fans, I am so happy he is back performing. It renewed him. He candidly shared with me and it was so emotional I cried, that he was ‘becoming like a wilting flower’ because he lives for his aspirations to be his idol.'
'This post will be a love story. My love for the stage - my aspirations to be my beloved idol 1970s decade Freddie Mercury; to prance - follow in his ballet slippers footsteps. My love and appreciation for you, my precious fans.'
'I reign with my left hand,
I rule with my right I'm lord of all darkness,
I'm Queen of the night'
(from the androgynous lyrics of Queen's 'The March Of The Black Queen' written by Freddie Mercury, of course...)
Being a very openly gay 'effeminate queen' - he isn't being cryptic out of a closeted queen dropping hints, but much of what he does is him being his overly sexual self - erotically teasing and trying to provoke a response from you, his adoring fans, or whoever that knows it's meant for them.
'Guaranteed to blow your mind '
(from 'Killer Queen', written by Fairy's idol Freddie Mercury)
"Fairy Mercury - exotic, erotic and elegant is a sight to behold!" states one awestruck venue booking agent.
​Things already start out on a campy note as the ever so elegant Fairy's sibilant purr is telling me, 'I wonder why a person's nipples become erect when they're cold.' Totally unaware the 'Russian Prince' has walked up behind him hearing this!
Fairy excitedly purrs, ‘Darling, I have another idea I know my precious fans will just love. Let me perform a weekend here in Haze Theatre.’
Splendour - the British variant of splendor. Brilliance, pomp, magnificence. Magnifico!
'Once we were mad, we were happy - we spent all our days holding hands together ...' from Queen's 'The Millionaire Waltz' written by Freddie Mercury, of course, who took the inspiration of the song from Austrian composer Johann Strauss. This page will cover candid Fairy including him performing the song at the very start of his Flight Of The Fairy tour which kicked off in Brighton.
​What's the point in being glam if no one can see you glitter?
The ever so elegant Fairy Mercury continues to prance in the ballet slippers of his idol 1970's decade Freddie Mercury in his surreal journey through life and fame. 'I did this very exotic leap, fell into the dancers' arms...' Freddie Mercury on learning ballet with the Royal Ballet.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
This page is loaded with video of Fairy and Pavlova.
Sad note about the page. It premiered the groundbreaking
'All Dead, All Dead' video (choreographed by Pavlova)
with Fairy doing her Liza/Freddie (miZ Mercury) vocals.
But the page ended on a sad eerie note, considering what the song is about, including it's name.
The last post on the page was made by Dame Eleanor and it was
the final thing she posted to Fairy's site before she passed away.
She (Fairy) faces me and purrs, ‘where did you get that footage of me being a silly tart camping it up pretending a maraca was a tit?’
I laugh pulling myself off the edge of the desk and go to the mini bar telling the exotic creature, ‘isn’t that what fans do, kitten? Film concerts even if it’s illegal. How does one say in the music industry? Bootleg? The venue you’re so fond of in Brighton. The man who books shows happens to be a good friend of mine. He tells me you do Freddie Mercury to the minute detail even the chest thrust out pose. Thrusting out your tits.’
​
Notes fromPublic Relations for Fairy Mercury:
This page starts out with Fairy at her overly sexual erotic best.
Her and Pavlova engage in conversation (of all things) her lips
and ... tits. Then the sad devastating news of Dame Eleanor's death broke. Fairy's touching send off to her was heart wrenching!
Behind the phrase - Freddie Mercury was given a what used to be called 'life-line' basically meaning a capsuled bio. on a star. One of the parts asked to fill in 'your dream' and Fairy's idol's reply to it was: 'to remain the divine lush creature that I am.'
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
That was one long page!! The FAIRY ... tale couple's relationship
evolves. Fairy briefly mentions having sex with Pavlova for the first time ... Intro. of 'the book' and Pavlova becomes vague and evasive. Too obvious the glam rock queen's mysterious Russian prince knows he'll have to reveal 'the truth' about himself to her soon. Yes, Fairy's adoring fans, re-live the beginnings because it really is fascinating to read their relationship evolved.
'Flight Of The Fairy ... Revisited' - the name of the exotic prancer's new tour name; as Pavlova explained: "It is a take on the Queen song (written by FM) 'In The Lap Of The Gods ... Revisited'. " Photo left: In white pleated winged frock look with bouquet.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
Fairy and Pavlova with their overly sexual demeanour.
VERY sexual excerpts from ‘the book’
What Greg (Hastings, viVid Photo Studio) and I (Jorge Schumann, PR for Fairy) found odd about this page is why did we name it
what we did and Fairy’s groundbreaking 2002 tour wasn’t even mentioned until the following page – You Brought Me Fame And Fortune.
Through the lens of my camera and the work of German wardrobe designer Johann Wagner, we will delve into the making of the exotic prancer Fairy Mercury who’s life so eerily mirrors the rock legend Freddie Mercury who he aspires to be.
Greg Hastings | viVid Photo Studio
Personal photographer to Fairy Mercury
‘Without fans the entertainer really has nothing; if his talents can't be adored. It is the excitement, the interest, the adoration of the audience that is the real ecstasy.' - Fairy Mercury, popular lookalike/impersonator of (1970s) Queen's Freddie Mercury
‘I’ve taken my bows and my curtain calls. You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it, I thank you all’
(from Queen’s ‘We Are The Champions’)
Additional notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The page You Brought Me Fame And Fortune is when the glam rock queen Fairy Mercury embarked on her first major tour. Her and her personal photographer Greg Hastings came up with a unique ‘revisited’ idea explained in note I made on the page. It was when the deceased Chinese fan Jason Long who fought to see Fairy succeeded in her fame – her aspirations to be her idol 1970s Freddie Mercury and saw she never became discouraged. The fan purchased the custom domain fairymercury.com for Fairy then eventually a hosting service because Killer Queen
needed a website and not a lowly ‘blog’. After the ‘revisited’ section, it goes back to the present.
The captivating ‘FAIRY … tale couple’ with their VERY sexual demeanour. Includes more from ‘the book’
​
This page would be considered a MAJOR focal point. Because the page was a HUGE turning point in Fairy’s fame and is a VERY popular page among fans. It covers her very first performance at Haze Theatre and her multimillionaire princely Russian ballet danseur romantically gifts her an engagement ring at the Peter Pan statue in
Hyde Park which VERY important and wealthy ‘high class society’ looking on through opera glasses from a distance.
Meeting the exotic prancer and the possibility of re-creating
Hyde Park. More highlights from the already very successful
Flight Of The Fairy ... Revisited tour.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The page No Escape From Reality is considered another fan favourite. Fairy’s costume designer Johann Wagner highlights the highly anticipated first ever two shows Fairy performed at Haze Theatre, which also kicked off her spring/summer Flight Of The Fairy … Revisited tour. This was when the glam rock queen met the famous man Pavlova refers to as ‘Mr. X’. Who knew both Freddie Mercury in the 1970s and Rudolf Nureyev. ‘Mr. X’ attended both nights and is a very close friend of Pavlova.
Haze Theatre was her largest capacity audience she had played to and not only that, but besides her adoring fans, there were many very important, very wealthy people in attendance.

... the tight form fitting satin catsuits and leotards though.... Kind of like the erotic tart and those 'obscenely tight' (as he puts it) satin trousers. Looks of his idol he wears.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The page Flick Of The Wrist. More overly sexual from Pavlova and Fairy – the ‘FAIRY … Tale Couple’. Fairy admits being ‘very shy’ of Pavlova. VERY sexual. The multimillionaire Russian ballet danseur shows up drunk to the Manchester hotel Fairy is staying in for her Manchester concert. Sex and Pavlova’s drunken state inspires the campy queen to come up with Myaow Meeow Productions. If you tend to be prudish, I wouldn’t recommend reading it.
Pictured left, satin queen Fairy Mercury with his exotic eye lined eyes forever looking identical to his idol 1970s decade Freddie Mercury he not only emulates but practically is incarnate of. Comments by Fairy himself, an avid long-time fan's input and
Mr. Greg Hastings on photographing the (1970s decade) Freddie Mercury incarnate / lookalike.
Revisions Include: both Fairy and Russian ballet danseur Pavlova's eerie canny likeness to Nureyev and '70s Freddie Mercury.
Wildly stunning!
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The page Mirror Image. A personal favourite of the glam rock queen's. My summaries will probably end there. Fairy's first ever set list which she wrote out in her eyeliner pencil appears on it (as well as her profile) and fan Richard Denning details winning it and receiving it ('Revisited' section).
Blushingly overly sexual. Fairy’s costume designer Johann Wagner and the Russian ballet danseur/multimillionaire Pavlova get in an argument over, of all things, Fairy’s tits … The glam rock queen slinks in asking if they not think it embarrassing getting in arguments over her tits.
The things on the page are from at least 2 maybe even 3 years ago!! When my career was still a baby. The page is about the classic rock DJ Ron A. and me appearing on his radio spot. Ron A. has long quit radio as of over a year ago. I have distanced myself from that for promotion. It's as Ron A. stated in the discussion with me, 'obsolete'.
I can't express how much I love my life and my career/fame more than ever now that I have found my Nureyev who completes me in my pursuit to prance / follow in the ballet slippers footsteps of my beloved idol Freddie Mercury.
Persian glam rock superstar Fairy Mercury continues to make history on 'her' Flight Of The Fairy ... Revisited tour with the help of Russian ballet danseur Pavlova. The 'FAIRY ... tale couple'.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The glam rock queen literally faints as she finds out a major truth about her mysterious multimillionaire Russian ballet danseur.
What happened next was embarrassing, your exotic star quietly moaned, coming to, the black nails left hand reached out pawing at - I'll just call it - 'the well endowed-ness' in his trousers. An extreme embarrassed look crossed Pavlova's face and he knelt down alongside the chaise taking her hand, kissed the back of it, then placed it to his chest saying, 'no, kitten, feel my heart not that, although - that throbs - it is not my heart.' Fairy literally blushed and I saw what her costume designer meant when he keeps telling Pavlova that Fairy is very shy of him.
Towards the end, Greg Hastings goes on epic rant.
Fairy elegantly turns things right back on topic after briefly thanking her loyal photographer for defending her. Back on topic, Pavlova, the prince he is, asking Fairy ‘should I describe every inch of you?’ when things become overly sexual once again.
Highlights from exotic prancer's sold out shows at the magnificent Haze Theatre. Along with detailed look back at her 1st ever shows at Haze Theatre which kicked off the divine lush creature's spring/summer Flight Of The Fairy ... Revisited tour.
Also details of the FAIRY ... tale couple's wedding in June and their fairy tale romantic relationship that has the glam rock queen's millions of adoring fans captivated.
Pavlova tells about the glam rock queen Fairy Mercury being nude in the garden and Minkus. It’s hilarious!
'Fairy' - slang for 'gay' (effeminate gay to be exact...)
​
'Someone has drained the colour from my wings
Broken my fairy circle ring
And shamed the king in all his pride
Changed the winds and wronged the tides'
(lyrics from Queen's 'My Fairy King' written by Freddie Mercury)

'The concept of Queen is to be regal and majestic. Glamour is a part of us, and we want to be dandy.' - Freddie Mercury (circa, 1970s). This quote of Fairy's idol defines Fairy who loves to tart herself up in silk, satin, velvet (like her '70s idol). 'The more obscenely tight, the more erotic, darlings!' is what Fairy's sibilant purr exclaims. Photo (left) Fairy in the 'Black Queen' satin catsuit look of her idol.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
More of the campy queen's overly sexual demeanour.
More back of limo...
Pavlova sets the record straight about a few things.
Killer Queen's costume designer details Pavlova teasing Fairy
over her emulating his 'princely bow' backstage.
Greg Hastings even threw in a very erotic photo of the glam rock queen on stage in her red kimono!
Need we remind - 'queen' slang for a campy effeminate gay male. This page is a very revealing and candid look at the divine lush creature Fairy Mercury.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
One word: tucking ...
Fairy at her campy queen finest with 'litter box' and Pavlova isn't
insulted because it's that campy.
'Funny How Love Is' (Queen song) The name tells all - more on the 'FAIRY ... tale couple's' romantic regal extravagant 25 June wedding at Pavlova's Vienna estate as well as more translation from 'the diary' and much more.
Including exclusive! The exotic prancer's personal photographer does another photo shoot of Fairy emulating poses in the white satin fairy winged frock she will be wearing to marry her dashing Russian prince/ballet danseur Rudolf Pavlova in!!
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
A major truth about the multimillionaire Russian ballet danseur is revealed to the glam rock queen Fairy Mercury who literally faints and goes into shock having to be medically treated for shock.
Then there's Philip Goldman ... The viVid Photo Studio asst. photographer details photographing and filming the FAIRY ... tale couple's Vienna wedding (of course, in depth coverage can be read/seen on Fairy's fan club).
The page is very long. A lot of content with a lot of erotic ... imagery. You can't say Fairy's sites (both fan club and public) lack content, that's for sure!
Effeminate defined: male having traits traditionally considered feminine.
Epicene defined: having characteristics of both sexes.
Queen defined: slang for an effeminate gay male.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
The glam rock queen's costume designer Johann Wagner argues once again with Pavlova about Fairy's tits and it's hilarious!!
Killer Queen uses online translation tool to snoop into Russian conversation Johann and Pavlova are having. A LOT of content!
' ... after she (Fairy) left he thought Fairy was "very erotic looking in person - up close - not from the audience view of her on the stage and looks even more eerily like the real Freddie Mercury"
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
Pavlova has viVid Photo Studio's asst. photographer Phil Goldman
take thee most princely photo of himself emulating his most fave
photo/pose of his idol Nureyev for his exotic glam rock Persian queen. Fairy becomes too shy over it and can't bring herself to reply except sexual strike throughs. Cute.
She premieres video of her emulating her idol 1970s Freddie Mercury to perfection on the two Queen Freddie Mercury written songs 'Jealousy' and 'Nevermore'
The page was oddly very short and never completed.
Glam rock queen Fairy Mercury details her first ever upcoming European tour. The page will include an exclusive 'write up' she will be doing entitled: 'Destined To Be Lord Of Dance' where
Killer Queen will candidly talk with her husband, the multimillionaire Russian prince/ballet danseur Rudolf Pavlova.
The discussion will cover, Pavlova's lineage, 'the diaries',
him being 'groomed' to become the image of Nureyev, their 'romantic, regal, extravagant' wedding at Pavlova's lavish Vienna estate and choreographing his own version of the ballet Giselle. Where the divine lush creature Fairy Mercury will dance the part
of Giselle and Pavlova (of course) will dance as Prince Albrecht
and more! The FAIRY ... Tale Couple.
PLUS! Putting together Fairy's '70s Freddie Mercury image by
her costume designer Johann Wagner.
​
Notes from Public Relations for Fairy Mercury:
Fairy 'interviews' Pavlova in a very revealing moment.
Also, how viVid Photo Studio's Greg Hastings met the famous glam rock queen is detailed and it's so epic! Along with details
of how Killer Queen's very talented costume designer (and best friend) Johann Wagner met Fairy.
'I've taken my bows and my curtain calls' - from Queen's 'We Are The Champions'. Fairy soars to distant lands as she readies herself to embark on her first ever European tour. Plus!

The glam rock queen bitchily turns on her fan club president Geoff Stafford, taking away the Loyal Subjects online fanzine from him. But things get sorted - watch out for those claws!!!
