“I’d love to play Judas - that’s my dream role,” the New York Daily News quoted him as saying.
“Kris,” the rocker said of his churchgoing pal, “he could play Jesus!”
As for the rumours that he may be Queen’s newest front man, he has made clear there is no such thing in the immediate future.
“They’ve never actually offered me anything,” he said.
“They expressed interest in working together, but just said they’d like to have a meaningful conversation, and that’s it.
“It could have meant they wanted me to come to dinner with them, it could have meant they wanted to talk about the meaning of life.
“I don’t know if joining the band permanently is in the cards for me right now. They’re legends; I’m just the new kid on the block,” he added. (ANI)
