Celebrities pay tributes to George Michael.
George Michael, who rocketed to stardom with WHAM! and went on to enjoy a long and celebrated solo career lined with controversies, has died, his publicist said Sunday. He was 53.
Michael died at
his home in Goring, England. His publicist, Cindi Berger, said he had
not been ill. No other details were released.
He enjoyed
immense popularity early in his career as a teenybopper idol, delivering
a series of hits such as "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," ''Young Guns
(Go For It)" and "Freedom." As a solo artist, he developed into a more
serious singer and songwriter, lauded by critics for his tremendous
vocal range. He sold well over 100 million albums globally, earned
numerous Grammy and American Music Awards, and recorded duets with
legends like Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Luciano Pavarotti and Elton
John. (credit; yahoo news)
