The song "Killer Queen" by the band Queen describes a woman who keeps expensive wine and food and acts like Marie Antoinette. She meets with various powerful men from around the world and lives a lavish lifestyle, but changes addresses frequently. The song has a catchy melody and lyrics that portray the woman as charming but also hint that beneath the surface she may have a darker side. Queen was a British rock band led by lead singer Freddie Mercury, who wrote much of their music before dying of AIDS-related pneumonia in 1991. The band also included guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor.
