jac_the_gripper: I saw him being interviewed some years back. He came across as a really lovely man.
I think I must have seen the same interview, as that is what I thought, but the media can sell more papers by vilifying the guy for being gay and not being perfect in their opinion.
Apparently he donated a lot of money to charitable causes and never looked for publicity from doing so, he was only human and made mistakes but he seemed like a genuinely nice guy who liked to help others.
Certainly more talented than what people class as "celebrities" these days, for instance those idiots the Kardashians.

Another great loss to the entertainment industry and fans. R.I.P George and Rick. Be nice to think they're all entertaining the souls that have passed on to another world. Never got to see George Michael in concert but saw Status Quo.
Knew him as a child , as we both had similar Greek backgrounds . The scary thing is , that I could have taken a similar path. The only difference was, that I was talentless.
Jokes aside, a great loss of a very talented artist. RIP. Georgo.

Isn't it weird to think how peoples lives can go different paths from the same starting point

Rest in Peace George
He was always a little different from the other boys .. He was always A bit of a loner growing up & never did the normal thinks boys his age did, like participating in sports. Who would have know he would grow up to be an icon.
I've got to stop watching movies. Was only watching "Deadpool" the other day and Wham was mentioned. Nek minute! Bowie, I'd been listening to a couple of songs. Nek minute! So now I think I'll just watch and listen to dead people.
