Scottish star KT shows off her dance moves in the arty black and white video for her latest track, The River.

The actor, who plays Freddie Mercury in the film, has answered critics of the movie's original trailer which was accused of shying away from the singer's sexuality.

The film is due to premiere at Wembley Arena later this year.

"I don't think the film shies away from his sexuality or his all-consuming disease, which is obviously AIDS.

"I don't know how you could avoid any of that, or if anyone would ever want to. It's a bit absurd that anyone's judging this from a minute trailer."
