It is known that Brian May loves space. Now his wife Anita Dobson revealed that the Queen guitarist is also a big “Star Wars” collector.
On the edge of a Cirque-Du-Soleil premiere in London, she told the “Music News” portal that he has a lot of Memorabilia for the science fiction series from George Lucas at home. He often even buys the same figure twice – one in himself, one for the grandchildren.
Like all nerds, he does not take his characters out of the box (we remember Sheldon Cooper), while the grandchildren can of course play with it. Brian May is now 77. The age helped a bit against the rage of collecting, said Dobson: “He bought quite a bit. It has decreased something since it got older. His favorite is the little green guy, he loves Yoda. “
“His favorite is the little green guy”
This is not his only passion for collecting for Dobson’s dismay. As is well known, everything that has to do with astronomy has also done it. (In 2007 he made up for his doctor in astrophysics at London Imperial College.) In addition, he loves everything prehistoric, especially dinosaurs – “like all children,” said Dobson.
“I always think I have to muck out and many of my clothes go to the local hospice. But there are so much stuff. I see it this way: my husband is a messie and I’m a half -massie, ”she joked. Whenever she considers something dragged by him to be useless, he convinces her of the opposite. Of course, Brian May also lifted many queen memories: old costumes that he wore on stage and in photo shoots, records, rarities and other stuff.
Dobson does not seem to be particularly disturbed by her husband’s rare. The two have been happily married for more than 24 years. And she knows that Brian May With Queen something for eternity has achieved: “His legend will continue to live for and on, as will that from Queen.” Incidentally, May is also involved in animal welfare and is very interested in stereo photography.
