This might be one of the most unique headlines I've ever written but Queen frontman Brian May had to be rushed to the hospital, he revealed. Why? "I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds."
May revealed it all happened "in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening."
May writes "But me? Yes, I’ve been quiet. Reason? As well as getting over-stretched and harassed by too many demands, I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening.
"So suddenly I find myself in a hospital getting scanned to find out exactly how much I’ve actually damaged myself. Turns out I did a thorough job – this is a couple of days ago – and I won’t be able to walk for a while, or sleep, without a lot of assistance, because the pain is relentless.
"So, folks … I need to go dark for a while, getting some complete rest, at home. Please, please don’t send me sympathy – I just need some healing silence for a while. I’ll be back – but I need the complete break. OK ? Thanks. Take care out there. Bri."
In a follow-up post, May decided to get political "I’m tired and in pain – but an attempt to say – before it’s too late – "Wake up Britain” – and “Rise to the occasion, Boris”. The world we had before this CoronaVirus was not good enough. We need a radical rethink. If you agree… do something about it! Make your voice heard! Time to #RethinkBritain."
