Legendary Queen guitarist Brian May has proved there is truly no end to his talents by personally designing a sports bra.

The rock icon is selling the Official BMG Sports Bra on his Brian May Guitars website, and it’s available to buy for £35.

Available in five sizes ranging from Extra Small to Extra Large, the eye-catching design features a variety of different guitars including, of course, Brian May’s fabled Red Special.

The blurb on Brian May Guitars reads: “Highlighting Brian May's consummate artistic talents, this active wear salutes the entire range of Brian May Guitars with a bright, bold design prominently featuring the united colours of BMG - because it doesn't have to be red to be special!”

As part of the clothing range, Brian May has also launched a shirt and waistcoat adorned with the same guitar design.

Last week (20th January), Queen made history by becoming the very first band to be honoured win a commemorative coin collection from the Royal Mint.

The first in The Royal Mint’s new ‘Music Legends’ collection, Queen’s official coin is available to buy in a variety of different Gold proof, Silver proof, and Brilliant Uncirculated versions, ranging from a £5 Brilliant uncirculated coin costing £13 to a One Ounce Gold Proof Coin that costs an eye-watering £2,020.

“This is a big ‘Who could have imagined it?’ moment for us,” Brian May said last week. “When we began as Queen, even the first rung of the ladder to recognition seemed remote and unreachable. To have our band recognised and our music celebrated in this way is very touching - a real honour.”

Queen + Adam Lambert will perform at the Fire Fight Australia concert for bushfire relief on Sunday 16th February alongside shock rock icon Alice Cooper.

This June, Queen + Adam Lambert play 10 shows at London’s The O2 and two nights at Manchester Arena as part of The Rhapsody Tour.
