Guitarist Brian May is allowed to call himself Doctor of Astrophysics, Commander of the British Empire and now officially “Sir”. King Charles has knighted the musician in the traditional British New Year Honours. May was honored “for his services to music and charity”. Above all, his commitment to animal protection is recognized in this way.

On Instagram, the 75-year-old is touched by the reactions of his fans to his appreciation. In a video message he thanks for the many messages and congratulations. “I am very touched by your love and support. I will do my best to be worthy.”

In 2005, Queen Elizabeth II awarded the musician the Order of Commander of the British Empire. Three years later he received his PhD. May is also committed to animal welfare and climate protection.
