Gigwise readers have named Liam Gallagher as their top choice to step into the shoes of Freddie Mercury as the future frontman of Queen.

The Oasis and Beady Eye rocker topped the recent poll, pushing the current star fronting Queen, Adam Lambert, into second place.

George Michael and Paul Rodgers placed third and fourth in the poll - with both having performed with the remaining members of the band at previous events. Fifth place was Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears.

Gigwise readers were not keen on Queen taking a hip-hop direction however, with Kanye West proving the least popular artist to take up the role. Brian May's new best mate Dappy was second-least favourite with Will.i.am, Olly Murs and Lil Wayne also proving unpopular choices.

The poll is stil open now. If you disagree with these choices, you can still have your say.
