Adding to the online debate was the film itself. Bohemian Rhapsody received mixed reviews from critics (even though Malek’s performance was widely praised), yet beat out Black Panther, BlacKkKlansman, If Beale Street Could Talk and odds-on favorite A Star Is Born for the win.

Did Freddie Mercury ever engage in sexual misconduct?

Since he was born in Zanzibar, Freddie did qualify as an African.

One thing I don't get. The Johnny Cash biopic won in the musical or comedy category, and the Freddie Mercury biopic wins as a drama? Not enough songs in it or something?

Now I see that Green Book which won as best comedy was more of a drama. What's up with these people?

Any more awkward than this?

I'm still trying to figure out the difference between the Emmys, Oscars, and Golden Globes.

The movie was fantastic. The critics are morons.

1. Singer needs to be run out of town (and into prison)

2. Maybe the movie was either better, or the Hollywood foreign press doesn’t have PC as far up its colon as Hollywood does. Hollywood can’t vote for films about white people, but maybe foreigners are more color blind.

Bohemian rhapsody was a good movie. My favorite part was when Freddy’s father was talking about how they had to flee the muslims. Yes, it explored the seedier side of Freddy’s life, but it didn’t invite you into the bedroom and shove it in your face (things were implied without being explicit). Took my 16 year old to see it; she’s now a huge Quuen fan.

Best part is that she wants to learn more about the music I liked growing up: Kansas, ELO, Rainbow, Kiss, Journey, Led Zeppelin, the Who.

The only reason Lady Gaga didn’t win is becuase she is woman, women really struggle and she has it tough. /s

Good for them!

It's about time Bohemians finally stopped taking this stuff!

Like I said after the Golden Globe wins. Rami Malek will win an oscar for best actor in a leading role.

Bohemian Rhapsody will not win an oscar for best picture because of the allegations against Singer.
