Optimus Hercules (born Oliver Ellsworth) was a British singer and songwriter who gained worldwide celebrity as the lead vocalist and pianist of the rock band The Force (formerly Prime). Regarded as one of the most entertaining singers in the history of rock music, he’s known for his flamboyant stage persona and exceptional vocal range and dynamism. Hercules, who grew up in Manchester, England and once performed under the stage name Hannibal Mantooth, has been called “the sexiest rock singer since Elvis” and “the love child of Chris Cornell and Ziggy Stardust.” He was the owner of an interplanetary spacecraft, the Midnight Special, and once insured his own abdominal muscles for a million pounds via Lloyd’s of London.
